I think its ok but I don’t like myself much, its ok, I’m not an amazing person so I was never going to be ‘all of that’ anyway. anyway, I know I am flawed, I am accepting that ![]()
Nobody’s perfect. Try to see your strengths and acknowledge them.
I am working on this as well. I highly recommend this book:
@2Waynez will also find it helpful, I believe.
there is no “me” in my attitude. I just do the best I can when I can.
I struggle to read a lot, I kinda of get how imperfections can also be turned into a strength though. like my pc character in my vampire larp is pretty bad ass, he hunts and although I am trying my best to make him a force for good, he is still flawed with all of his imperfections.
Sometimes I think like this
The bad things I have done
But try to change things by being good more than bad
We are not perfect
I think if you can accept yourself the way you are, while leaving room for growth and improvement, you are very healthy in that department. It’s not easy to do.
Thanks guys, its just every time I get a low mood I start to self hate, but I realise that there is also a lot of truth to it as well, I was chatting to copilot (ai) about it and it was really good explaining things but I kinda forget what it says and the mood takes over and the self hate starts again, I try and distract myself but I can’t do that all of the time.
I totally get it. You’ve got to try to find things that you do like about yourself and say those things to yourself everyday. Over time try to find new things you like about yourself. Write them down and read them every day adding to the list whenever possible.
I wish I could do that but it doesn’t seem like a ‘me’ thing to do,i can see how it could help but I don’t think I can do that. maybe I’ll start another thread about it.
I hope you find something that does help you.
I dont like myself as much as I want to. I rely on positive remarks about myself and hope that it sticks in my psyche.
Like my friend told me I was a chill guy. It felt good to acknowledge my traits externally.
