"Jibun" is actually almost never used in first-person sense to refer to oneself.

But rather, it's used to refer to the context of oneself, in other words, "one's self" or "my own", and not necessarily "me" or "I".

In some areas, "jibun" is also casually used as a replacement of "you". But that's not common.

But then again, I'm no expert.
