Re: How do you not Hate Yourself?
Work on changing all of your thinking, not just about yourself.
At the top of the psychotherapy forum is a sticky about the 10 common cognitive distortions.
From what I've found, when I am down on myself it's because of stinking thinking...
that I'm not thinking rationally and am distorting
truth and facts. I think it holds true for most people.
Learning to counter those negative (irrational) thoughts will help you have room for the good truthful ones.


Odds are you are blaming yourself for something that isn't yours to own.
