Mair, as you know, I struggle with those same thoughts. Even though I know that they aren't good thoughts for me to be having.
The type of problems I have are ones that almost always come with sexual or severe physical abuse. I feel like I don't deserve to have mine because I had neither. I think I should just pull myself together and quit being such a baby.
Of course there is the family history, but that worries me even more. The people in my mother's side of the family who had psychotic episodes were the ones under the most life stressors. That reminds me a bit too much of the way I don't handle stress well *at all*, and makes me worry.
