I struggle with this everyday. I think more about others then myself to the point i end up hating myself and only care about others views on things. I wish i could love myself like i used to but i don’t know if i’ll ever like myself like i used to

The only reason, and I mean the only reason, I love myself is because I know for a fact that God adores me. You can have a different opinion if you want. But that’s my reasoning.
I know how you feel about not loving yourself, @KingKazuma. I know what I need is gentleness but I am so used to people smacking each other around and being inconsiderate it’s almost safer than being kind. Just because it’s known.

I was born to occupy space on planet earth. so was everyone else.
what happens between those times is largely out of our control depending on who are parents and what we got from genes.
All we can do is try to have the most fun while we are here.
ps you deserve to occupy space here too.

Maybe try do things to boost your self esteem. Do something creative, volunteer your time. Think about why you hate yourself and what you can do to change it. Having a job and friends and a relationship are all great but I don’t think they are necessary to find fullfillment. You just got to be at peace with yourself.

Lol same. Knowing that God loved me, and also that my family and friends did. They help point out my positive traits. We don’t often judge ourselves fairly, not that others always judge us fairly either but for example people with low self esteem tend to say they have no good qualities about them which is impossible because no one has no good qualities.
For example @KingKazuma I know you are a caring person because you love and want the best for your bunnies.
I find it easier to work on something if you give it a name. What don’t you like about yourself? If you figure out what you don’t like you can work on making it into something you do like.
It helps me to look in the mirror and force myself to come up with three positive things to say about myself. When I first started doing it, it was super hard and I felt like I was lying. But over time, I started to believe what I was saying.
I don’t know if it would help you. Our struggles are totally different. But it helps me.
