Try to be kind to yourself. It is hard to love someone you veiw as disgusting. I found it important to take those words out of my vocabulary when referring to myself. I try to view myself with compassion, just as I view each and every one of you. I don't think of any of you as disgusting or as failures in this quest to stop injuring. You are all beautiful people in the process of...learning to create a new life. I now look at myself as sometimes fragile, sometimes hurt, sometimes lost and confused but there are also moments of strength, cleverness, and changeability. Never ever disgusting.
