There isn't anything wrong with you. Sometimes if you're feeling sad for no obvious reason, it can feel as though it would be easier if something bad did happen to you, because then you have an obvious "excuse" for feeling down. Please let this reassure you though, that your feelings are valid, whether something bad has happened to you or not. Another explanation of this could be that you might think quite little of yourself; if you don't have very high self-esteem, you might wish bad things upon yourself, and like it when that happens. There's nothing wrong with you for thinking this, just try to show yourself some more love, and remember that you do really deserve to have good things, and to be happy. If you need to chat about it, myself and the other listeners on 7 Cups of Tea are really happy to listen.
