  Familarity breeds contempt.<br><br>I am most familiar with myself.

  There was a poster in a classroom I was in many years ago (I was in single digits) that I still remember to this day, and I think it sums up everyone&apos;s self-hate pretty simply: it simply read, &quot;When I am good, no one remembers; when I am bad, no one forgets.&quot;

  &quot;I was quiet. Never got in trouble. Compassionate and funny. Yet the troublemakers and problem children got all the love and support while I was left alone. If THEY are worthy of it, how bad am I to not be?&quot;

  Even though I know it&apos;s irrational, a part of me hopes that one day I can give enough love to the world to make up for the hate I have given myself

  I despise my own happiness and joy and hate spending time just on things that solely focus on me being happy; but im more than happy to sink time and enegy and happiness into the people i care about because i know that constantly being stuck in your own head and hating everything you do is the most suffocating thing in the world, and if im able to help one person i know feel happier about the world we live in then thats all i need

  Nobody judges you as harshly as you judge yourself. It is okay to be kind to yourself.

  Me when someone else fucks up: &quot;It&apos;s alright. You&apos;ll get it.&quot;<br><br>Me when I fuck up: (stands in front of mirror) &quot;YOU SHOULD <b>redacted</b> YOURSELF, *NOW*.&quot;

  Love how we talk about the brain as this strange thing we can&apos;t control, while we are the brain. &quot;Who are you talking to?! You! Me? Me.&quot; :D

  Yeah, unfortunately, my self hatred is so deep, and core to who I am, that logic doesn&apos;t work on it. Being kinder to myself feels like a lie, and is auto-rejected. I literally <b>cannot</b> do it (or, at least, if I can, I haven&apos;t figured out how).<br>I cannot logic myself out of a feeling, at most using logic and reason and positive self-talk provides a counterargument ...that the feeling then ignores.<br>Since it&apos;s something I&apos;m actively doing instead of something that comes naturally, I know I don&apos;t actually believe it.<br>It&apos;s kind of like how the old trick of setting your clocks 10min ahead to help with chronic lateness doesn&apos;t work for me, because *I&apos;m the one who did it*. My brain just goes &quot;oh that clock&apos;s wrong, remember? We have 10 more min.&quot;<br>&quot;Being kind to myself&quot; feels the same. My brain just says, &quot;yeah, nice try, but you&apos;re actually a worthless piece of shit, remember?&quot;

  I know I am intelligent, I know I am attractive, but then I punish myself for being overconfident and cocky

  I’ve lived with self-hate for so long that it feels like home, even if it hurts. The idea of living differently feels distant like trying to imagine a life that doesn’t belong to me.

  &quot;I feel like the worst person in the world. Everything I do is wrong. There are infinite possibilities, yet I make mistakes like a fool, like an immature person who doesn&apos;t even know how to make decisions.&quot;<br>That how i think it
