It's honestly something I still struggle with. Issues of capitalism aside, I, from an objective standpoint, consume far more resources and services than I produce due to my disabilities. It often feels like I deserve less than I have, and I don't have a lot.
It's one of those confusing points in-between feeling blessed and feeling like a burden.
You don't pick your disabilities, and it could just as easily have been me instead. That's why I have zero problems with my tax money helping people who can't contribute as much. Hope you're doing alright!
Mostly I am. It's just a underlying current in my thoughts that's hard to shake. It doesn't rule my life or anything, it just... comes by intermittently.
