how do you deal with having had a hard life

ive had a hard life, right back from the age of 16 and i'm 47 now ,mainly because of mental problems...how can i come to terms with that and deal with it without feeling bitter and blaming other people?

Its hard... But simple..No matter who or what caused your difficulty, the fact is you are right here, today. And nothing will change that. So mentally draw a line, recognising that it is what it is and ask yourself where you want to be tomorrow and for all the other tomorrows. Now take a step in that direction. That should keep you busy enough not to dwell on the past. And thats the habit you need to break.. Like I said. Its Hard. but simple..😷
