Do I consider the needs of others? What effect has my lack of consideration had on my relationships?

I think I can honestly say that I consider the needs of others more than most people I encounter in my day-to-day. I am a rather compassionate and empathetic person but lately I have been a little down because of other people’s pain. Mostly, imagining what someone is going through is what is most painful for the simple fact that I think of worst case scenarios that are most likely unrealistic.
Lack of consideration is essentially self-centeredness/selfishness. I can be very analytical and typically consider as many variables in a situation concerning interactions with people in order to eliminate confusion, misunderstanding and unnecessary hassle/aggravation.
I was VERY inconsiderate (to say the least) in my addiction. I didn’t consider ANY of the known consequences, ANY effect on the people in my life my using had, or anything beyond the need to get high.
