Did you start that lovely thread recently about how amazing we all are for keeping going through all this? It was much appreciated.

I am struggling to believe I am Ok as I am tonight tbh (after a better few days) self loathing is back big time.

Really appreciate the sentiment though and encouragement - will keep coming back and re-reading x

JesuslovesmethisIknow · 01/07/2013 21:44

yes that was me.

I really keep wanting to encourage me especially us all that we are all ok and not to give in and give up

I know its sooooooooo hard and the evidence seems to suggest otherwise but the evidence can bleep off

we not less than other woman - if anything, those who suffer are MORE as have gained a deeper empathy for others (well I think)

I'm sorry you're self loathing so much at the mo = that makes me sad (for you) as I am sure you are a VIP to people and are being far too hard on yourself. I bet you are lovely.

Whats up if you don't mind me asking

Smile thanks. Recovering from depression (still struggling with anxiety) and have always had pretty low self esteem. Things have been - and are improving (albeit v slowly). I had quite a busy weekend, being sociable Sat and DD sports competition yesterday which I found quite stressful, so am hoping today is just fall-out from that. But terrible sugar cravings that I have given into and now feel crap about... hey ho.

Thank u, although I know I'm not even ok. Failing miserably and want to give up. You sound so positive though.

I am very good at the self loathing. Can't remember a time I didn't hate myself and hate how pathetic that sounds.

Does anyone have any answers to where their own self hatred comes from?
