Everyone has good qualities. You do too!

I know. I still hate my self.

If you hate yourself so much then instead of thinking about how much you hate yourself wouldn't it be better to ask yourself how you can change for the better?

I have tried that as well...I have changed my entire life. Most of the time I hide what I'm feeling, say things I don't mean, and force myself to be a nicer most responsible person. And yet I can't stand me.


I do like Soul Eater though.

Some days you have to start really small. I'm sure you have some admirable qualities - make a list and look at that list when you're feeling like you hate yourself. You sound like an introspective person - that's a good quality right there! I sure wish some of my family members had some of that! :) Try to remember that this will pass and you will feel better again. You say your mom doesn't like you, but I bet she loves you. Big hugs!

My self loather has very little to do with good or bad qualities. I don't think i'm ugly (fat but not ugly), I don't think I'm stupid... I just want myself to go way...

I know my mom loves me. I know that. But like and love are two very different things.

I do wish to thank everyone for they're uplifting words

I use to think the same way about myself and still do at times. I find reading the bible helps me I enjoy the Psalms myself. I am sorry you are feeling this way. gentle hug

Venting and sharing so we don't have to feel we are trying to cope with life alone seems to help most people here.

The more we share and work through the challenges life gives to us it seems to help us work our way to having a better life.

We only have to take one small step at a time and sharing support helps us cope.

You start with finding one good thing. Once you list it don't forget it. Hold onto it for dear life. Try finding one more good thing every few days. Then you should get to where you can find something everyday. Soon hopefully you'll find multiple things on a given day. Very soon after that begins to happen you just might find out that you love yourself and like yourself too.

Oh yeah there is a very dear person that posts a list of affirmations at the beginning of each day on here. She is such a beacon and a truly sweet soul. Maybe you can get something from her posts. Just look for WallyBear and a post titled like " Happy Saturday." ((( Hugs )))
