Am I bad for not being able to get therapy?
Hi, I'm 17 now and when I was 13-14 I hurt people in horrible ways due to my own sexualization and trauma. A younger sibling to be exact. I stopped somewhere at 14 and apologized and explained the disgusting actions I've done and he has forgiven me multiple times. Now I'm 17 and I'm still haunted by it, even though he still forgives me and has made successful efforts to move on.
I still feel like a disgusting monster, and my parents don't support therapy at all and it's been getting harder for me to stop feeling that way. I've been trying for months now with no success, I can't go anywhere therapy related outside, at least not yet without my brother tagging along and my dad following me closely, and I can't go to my school, they'd notify my parents.
Slowly I've been trying to forgive myself, if that's even justified, but when I do regular, normal stuff, sometimes I feel like I'm still a disgusting person because I'm not constantly looking for therapy like I used to. I'm not hurting anyone and I'm just enjoying my time but I feel terrible and lazy. Do I deserve to feel like this. Am I a horrible person or any of these things?
