I used to put myself under a lot of pressure then beat myself up when I didn’t meet my standards for myself. It took me a some time to learn to treat myself better, but I am no longer depressed and I guess overall I like myself. Although there are things I’d like to be better.

I have a lot of doubts about myself and sometimes feel a lack of self-respect. There are times when other people like me more than I like myself.

I am indifferent toward myself. Dont love myself or hate myself. I do want to improve myself though.

Love others as you love yourself. A psychiatrists told please don’t as I knew I was abusing myself. But it changed. Self-esteem, self worth and resilience to all. :green_heart:

I’m okay with myself, but society doesn’t like me.

Thanks so much @Wave I still feel that way, but the encouragement I’m getting here feels really good. It makes me feel like people really care.

It’s taken me many years, and much hard work, to be able to say there are things I like about myself.

It’s hard for me, my expectations are overblown. Expectations I would never considering holding anyone else up to. A self defeating practice.

Took me a long time to learn to love myself, value myself, not sell myself short. I still struggle at times, but it’s a work in progress.

I don’t love myself, in fact I really dislike myself. However I do love my daughter very much. Not sure how this works…

I hate myself quite a bit, but I think there is also self esteem there. The self hate is painful, but it is so pervasive in my personality.

Today I don’t. I look awful and I’m obsessing over it and it makes me hate myself.

There’s a lot of things I really do like about myself. Now that my voices are way quieter – due to meds – I don’t have someone constantly telling me what a piece of ■■■■ I am, and how everyone hates me. That helps a lot.

I hated myself so much I destroyed me. And all because of homophobia. More accurately my Self killed me with spiritual power because he went evil. I heard a voice tell me there is no death, so maybe I’ll grow back some day. I’m just barely alive. It’s true

I feel that. I thought my romantic attractions were evil and satanic for a very long time.

Not really no, I wish I was so much better than I am at school and with my social skills.
I think I lack both of them in my opinion although I do my best to improve them.

In short I wish I was never born, I try to do my best in the worst episodes but it’s always a struggle to get back on my feet when things go horribly wrong, and I only do them because I have like an outside force that drives me to overcome them.
