I'm not sure if not liking yourself is a symptom of Borderline.
Sure, there are things about myself I don't accept or forgive, but I have a general like.
Maybe you could make a list of the things you do like about yourself. What are you good at? Who do you help? Even gives yourself points for caring for a plant.

Thank you for reading my post and responding. I don't know about all people with BPD, but I think a lot of people with BPD feel worthless and even hate themselves.
Thanks for the suggestion. I've tried doing that in therapy many times and its very difficult for me to do. I don't really have any valuable or unique skills or talents, I think I tend to make things worse when I get involved with anything because of my incompetence and my emotional instability.
