It's nauseating that people think I feel "excessive self pity" because I'm trying to be honest about my past so I can correct things about myself...

Tbh you have no idea what other people are going through or how they have to cope.

The weak assumptions are more of an insult than they are supportive.

It just instills further that I should hide inside and not try to share when it would help.

I think it's time to go for awhile.

And this is exactly why I don't vent much here at all. There's always either a troll to step on you when you're down or someone well intentioned but completely off the mark making you feel like venting was a big mistake.
