Sure there's a you to bring yourself into existence. It's the one you brought into existence. :-)
It's not like the alternative is much better. If everything is brought into existence by something else, then how can the entire universe have had a beginning? Unless it's infinitely old, it must have created itself. (I'm talking philosophy here, not physics.)
As for the electron thing--well, mathematically it works. Pair production and annihilation is a well-known phenomenon. There are other ways to interpret the process--the whole time-travel thing is just one way to conceptualize it--but what happens physically is well-established.
