I feel pretty bad about being depressed when my problems are nothing compared to the rest of the world.

felt but that’s not a real thing. the existence of worse problems doesn’t mean your problems aren’t valid. plus your feelings are your feelings it’s not like you can control them

Drowning in water that’s a foot deep and drowning in water that’s a mile deep is still drowning. Just because it looks different doesn’t mean the result isn’t the same. It’s okay to acknowledge that you’re going through different things, and simultaneously acknowledge that they’re still things you’re going through.
