First of all, NOBODY is worthless! Everyone is worth something, even if its just to serve as a bad example -- and I guarantee you, you are not one of those people.
There are many religions (I know Buddhism is one) which hold that pleasure and pain are two sides of the same principle. You can not feel true pleasure and delight without knowing the depths of pain. And as an addendum to that, you can not relate to other people's pain without having experienced it yourself. So the problem with these people who think you should feel guilty? They are lacking in spiritual growth.
Think of how bad you feel now, and try to imagine how you would feel if a friend told you that she was going through something similar. Chances are, you'd empathize with her and try to help her, not tell her that she's being selfish.
On the plus side, you DID survive and everything you are going through will serve to make you a better, stronger person.
