Learning self-acceptance of ones self is not easy, at least not to me. It's taken me a long time to even begin to accept who I am, despite all my faults. It's ok to be hypo, it's ok to be depressed...it's how I cope with those feelings that I am now going to work on. My t has been very supportive, as has my pdoc, and for that I am grateful. There are many good qualities I possess, but I constantly am looking at the negative side, which is what gets me into trouble...and it ultimately landed me in the hospital in November for having severe SIs. I will be damned if that's going to happen again, so I really need to work on loving myself more, regardless of what's going on.
