Do you hate yourself and if so why?

[coachTanthony]

[NathanDavis]

no, I never have

at the most, I got to hate my situation in the past, but not myself

I was very young though, and not able to really grasp as much of my reality

[mobiusforniner]

Nah coach, I wake up every morning, wink at myself in the mirror and say "damn, im looking good" and im off to conquer the day. ain't got time to hate myself

[Cynicaldreamer]

Hate is a strong word. Am I happy with myself? Absolutely not.

Between my looks, weight, and poor self esteem, or lack of rather, I'm definitely not pleased with myself. They say you're your own worse judge-

Yeah, it's true. I'd happily change my body in a heartbeat if I could

[CrimsonAngel09]

Oh boy do I!

Always have, especially when I started Middle and High school where guys bullied me about my appearance. Thanks to them and people online including here, I now deal with body dysmorphia. I see a lot of guys here on GAG mention how they prefer skinny women with small perky boobs. I seen a lot men on here also bully average women who are a little bit chubby like myself and automatically assumes she's unhealthy and disgusting. I'm 142 pounds at 5'0", and if I lost maybe four to five pounds, I'd be perfectly skinny. Boobs unfortunately may be a lost cause though. This site and Quora is just full of shallow men.

Why?

I wasn't lucky and didn't win the genetic lottery. I'm short, a little bit chubby, and my boobs are saggy because they're big at 36DD. Despite what most men thinking saggy is for old women only, it's not. Even when my chest used to be a C, they were saggy then too.

I'd rather be tall, skinny, with small perky boobs. It looks a lot better.

I used to.. I just thought I was the ugliest, most annoying, stupid person around. I made myself get fat because I hated myself and guys, then had a hard time getting guys as a result LMAO. Lots of guys told me I am cute/pretty/beautiful but I have never once seen it in myself plus none of them ever wanted to date me. But this year of having time for myself again I learned to love myself a little more. I still have a lot of things to work on but I am in a better place to start again.

Not right now, but there have been times I certainly have. Mostly over gender identity stuff. My mother was a bra burning 0's feminist and my early years was all about how bad men are, when I started puberty it created a bunch of cognitive dissonance in my psyche. Things like my natural attraction towards women was twisted in my head as something that was evil. The idea that men are bad, I am becoming a man therefore I am bad was a hard reality for me.

I used to. Being a veteran, there were things I had been through, friends who are no longer with us. For years, i had let doubts and "what if" take over, which later turned into self blame, then into self hatred. I had gotten to such a low point that I couldn't even stand to look at myself in the mirror long enough to shave, and I started to feel that I would have been okay with going to sleep and never waking up again.

But, I have been able to get out of that mindset. If you are going through that yourself, just know that despite what you may think, you are not alone. You matter. Your life matters. There is always a light to guide you out of that darkness, you just have to be willing to look for it.

I take great pride in my laziness and don’t feel bad about it at all.

Besides I what am I supposed to do get a job? Punch a clock? My dad is rich I just need him to die Why would I work

This isn’t something I dislike but I think it’s my least likable personality trait others are always complaining about how lazy I am

[Blackcupcake]

No I have worked hard to accept, love and better myself as a person and I am very proud and happy to say that I love myself.

[OfMiceandMen]

I like myself, but I have to work on a better me. I tend to get caught up in everyone else's projects and mine are last.

[purplepoppy]

I neither hate not love but rather accept who I am while recognizing the bits that can be improved.

[DizzyDesii]

I might hate some of my thoughts and actions and but never myself

[Sparkie460]

I've never hated myself. I hated that I had a bad temper but I've learned how to control it now.

[FunkyMonkee]

I hate what's become of my poor excuse for a life!

[shades777]

Sometimes I do then I change and all is well in the land

[annabananna]

No, I don’t. I’d probably be my friend if I was someone else.

[Agape93]

Yeap, some times more than others and I'm not explaining why

[Anonymous]

No, People are enough to hate me. I must support myself, I must love myself. You should never hate yourself. If you love yourself and respect yourself, people will also love and respect you.

[Sasha0426]

All the time. Sometimes I wonder why I’m even here.

[LavLavLuv]

No i don't.. Why would i hate myself :)

[Ptrmbrs88]

No, I don't hate myself. Why would I?

[coachTanthony]

Many reasons one being asking why would I lol

[Ptrmbrs88]

I DO hate some of the things I've done, the mistakes I've made, the things I now regret.

[EVERYONEDIED]

Yes... I just upset myself... I don't deserve bad things

[Yannishka]

Hate no, but I am definitely FLAWED.

[Fireguy17]
