Is it okay to ask for gods mercy for yourself?
It is permitted to pray for yourself only for whatever you want. There are many examples in hadith in which the Prophet prays for himself. He also instructed others to do the same, as in this hadith:
Abu Malik Ashaja'i reported on the authority of his father that whenever a person embraced Islam, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) instructed him to recite:
" O Allah, grant me pardon, have mercy upon me, direct me to the path of righteousness and provide me sustenance."
Sahih Muslim 2697 a
And God knows best.
