When something distressing happens, I retreat and lick my wounds. And I like to indulge in a little private self-pity. For a while, until I can handle it better.
This is one of my go-to self-pity songs. Really does it for me. Maybe it’ll do it for some of you, if you’re having a similar day.
”When I am afraid, one word of kindness, it can save me”

🥹 beautiful song that really expresses what it feels like being hurt, turned against, betrayed and having a friend, a defender, a soldier who has your back to give comfort and solace. I know you have people like that in your life, Josh. Me, for one...virtually, at a distance, kind of a stranger, but...here for you when you need a friend. 🤗
Try, if you can, to take as good of care of yourself as I (or anyone else who you really matter to) would, if one of us was there in person.
Thank you for the great song. Returning the favor:
This is a good song for dark, brooding types of self-pity (and the video is brilliance itself): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8AHCfZTRGiI
And this is a good one for intense, wallowing self-pity specifically related to the kind of trauma that few people can understand:

And this is a good transition song to get out of this mood state (i.e. self-pity with a plan):
