I heard my neighbor fall down the stairs around 5:30am. He wasn't yelling for help, but I could hear the pain he was in, and I did nothing. He only had a couple of scrapes, thank god, but I feel like the worst neighbor on Earth for staying in my bed instead of helping.
Thank you for submitting this. I can feel your guilt and I wish I had a good way to alleviate it – I carry so much of it myself for things I did or didn't do. Maybe someone here has advice for how we can let it go and move on.
