It is ok. I did this for a while. Is it that the compliment could not possibly be true because deep down there is something that cannot accept good things about yourself?

To overcome this I went to therapy. And then i said to myself I will give it a go. I used a lot of things and it helped out - such as telling myself I am a good person, saying good things internally. Try saying I love you internally - do you disagree with yourself? Try positives instead of negatives. There will be ups and downs. Why? Ask these questions.

I know you may have said all of the above things on your post about what I just said but it is true. This changed my life. What you say internally is what you are.
