It's a strange idea, that we should be shunned for voting on our own content, Sure, it's on thing when your self vote is upwards of $100+ HBD and you can self vote your self 10 x in a day, draining over $1000 from the community fund, more over if that content you are voting is tripe... but, if you post quality content and not spam, why not drop yourself a self vote?

If it was a big issue, then the powers that be, would have patched it in an HF, but that has not happened, so, in all regards, it should be okay and not a point of debate or drama unless you are rocking $100hbd self votes on the daily.

Any ways, good luck and Hope you can find strenght to keep going!
