I think it is very difficult to love ourselves if our parents did not nurture us in an appropriate way. My mom was a person with a lot of limitations as a mom. I have had problems to love myself since I was born, I guess. I struggle. It can get better, but we are in constant struggle.
I am sending you a big hug
