Happy-Jessica meet Depressed-Jessica. She is going to be taking over of a while. I know you have been in charge my whole life but apparently not any more. Don’t ask my why. So take your smile and laughter and fuck off for a while. I'm sick of it. I really was a happy person, all that shit wasn’t fake, I wasn’t pretending to be happy, I was

Jessica, I don't think that you should be depressed about this. I mean to prove this through a semi-meaningful reply to your post:

Whatever lucky star you fell under, whatever 'angel' is watching your back, you have the opportunity to be born in middle-to-upper-class America, where these privileges you seem to feel you don't deserve are common occurrences. You have what you have, because of the work/generosity of your parents and their abilities, or your own ability to garner that bf you seem to think you don't deserve.
You were dropped on this Earth with those talents, gifts, etc., and you have to make the best of it. Yes, you might have more than the next Tom, Dick, or Harry, but so the fuck what? You've got luck, babe, and the only way that you can show the world that you deserve these things is to do as well as you can with what you got.
These stories you see on Lifetime, the 'against the odds' tales of those with less fortune or luck that yourself, they're rare. What they don't tell you is the dozens that fail instead, against that one successful person. You've got what you got, and don't tell me you don't deserve it. You deserve it; don't for a minute believe that what you have isn't right to have, or that you should give it all up to prove your worth from 'ground zero'. You have a step up; if you don't utilize it, that's your own folly, but don't say that you don't deserve every last red cent you were born with/ given to you. I don't suppose you'd be too pleased with being born in poverty-stricken Somalia, and be forced to work your way up to being an undergrad at Ferris State U.
You have what you have, doll, and there is no reason to feel 'guilty' at the things that you were blessed with. Au contraire, I say, use all of them to your full advantage, because only that way will you fully succeed in life.
