    I'm not selfish. If I'm carrying excess, I donate it.
    However, I can get jealous at times! Especially at pretty people, as I am not.

    I've been selfish in many different point in my life but none so much as when I prioritized drugs over everything else. I did some truly selfish and terrible things. But since getting sober (ten years this June!!) I've really tried to dedicate my life to helping others in any way that I can.

    I always try to make myself flexible and available irl, I donate and volunteer regularly, I work as a medical assistant for the disenfranchised, and just generally put others before myself. I felt like I needed to make up for being such an awful human being in my past.. but now I've found that charity, compassion, and selflessness makes me unbelievably happy. There's such a reward for helping others without expecting anything in return and I live for those moments I can do something to make another person's day just a little bit better.

    Tbh. I feel like everything I do and say has some underlying selfishness. And be it just a sort of "attention grabbing" thing.

    I just don't like letting them leave. I feel guilty abandoning my wee friends 😭

    Time to be selfish:

    I want a hamburger... no, a cheeseburger. I want a hot dog. I want a milkshake...

    I was selfish when I was younger perhaps not even realizing it though I also put others first before myself as well. Even though I have no social life now years later I still try to help others in need if I can and they want help. That's just who I am as a person I truly care for others especially my family.
