How do I stop hating myself?

You have to understand that you're the most important person in your life, hating yourself would be meaningless, painful and a waste of time. You could stard love you more thinking that there's no one who share all your thoughts and thinks if not your self. If the problem is what you see in the mirror, always remember that you can improve, you could wear somethinfìg nice, do your hair and make-up as you like, if you think you're fat you can lose weight. There's a solution for everything!

"Stop hating yourself" is such a big topic and a hard one as well, because no one is telling you that you are amazing...but you are. You are who you are, you cannot change this. The best you Can do is just accept yourself and like you for who you are

No longer hating yourself is a hard thing to do. It takes a lot of thought to raise your self esteem. Just always know, you're much cooler than Hitler.

Well you should simply try and find people who are either just like you or polar opposites. The reason i say this is because when you find people like yourself you see that its not just you who is as different, or if you find someone completely then you know that you are unique

Look deep into yourself and find out what you love about yourself. It might not be something major, even your smile or something that you are good at counts. If you feel like it is hard to find, you could ask your loved ones (family members, best friends...) to see what they love about you. You maybe surprised with the answer!

You stop hating yourself by looking at the positive traits that you have. Each day you can wake up in the morning and think about something positive about yourself.

That's a tough question. I hated myself for a long time, honestly I still do. Perhaps looking at yourself in the mirror and instead of pointing out your flaws, point out your perfections. Someone can make you feel loved and make you forget why you hate yourself, You can also focus on the great things you're accomplishing instead of the things you do wrong. I hope I helped.

Taking time out of your day or through the day to try and think of parts you love about yourself, it doesn't have to be all at once but you can try looking at yourself or your personality and really taking into account that "hey, I really like my eyes" or "I enjoy that I'm honest with people" etc, Self-love isn't easy and it takes awhile but I have a dark saying to share, "In the end, you're going to be the only one who loves you" And I go on with my life saying this and I do in fact love myself, because if no one else will, who will? I am my best friend and I am me, self-loathing can do more harm than just accepting yourself.

Learn to love yourself for who you are. It is much easier said than done but provide yourself with love and self-soothing behaviours.

It takes a while... But You have to tell yourself you are worth it. The fact you hated yourself was you telling yourself you weren't enough. So know you need to tell yourself that you are.

Baby steps. Can’t emphasize this enough. If loving yourself seems like too much, work towards tolerating and feeling neutral about yourself.

Forgive yourself, have compassion for yourself, change your mindset and thought patter to the better

Hating yourself is one of the worst things ever. To prevent it you must start off by complimenting yourself. Remind yourself of the good things about yourself instead of the flaws. I always feel good about myself when other people compliment me. Ask your friends or anyone if they can say some nice things abou you to boost your confidence. You will then forget about the bad things. After you do this, then focus on why you hate yourself and motivate yourself to change those things if it is healthy and safe. Just remember tha no one is perfect and we all have out flaws. Some peoples just may be easier to spot than others

Changing your mind set is a huge step towards self love. Start accepting your flaws instead of trying to change them. I started by looking in the mirror and pointing out the bits of myself I didn't mind. It usually starts off little like 'the colour of my eyes are okay' or 'my smile isn't too bad'. Then you start repeating this every time you look into the mirror and you begin to really believe it. It took me a while, but I was eventually able to love things I was bullied for in the past, you just have to really convince yourself and eventually you believe it.

To stop hating yourself, think of all the reason why you do. Why do your hate yourself? Are those because of something from the past? The way you behave? You need to forgive yourself for the behavior you had in the past. It's in the past thus, something you cannot change. For the way you behave now, the way that you are now. First step, you need to accept yourself with your flaws. This is the person I am today. Only then you can focus on the second step: DISCOVER YOUR AUTHENTIC SELF AND LIVE IT FULLY. What I mean by that is: who you are right now isn't who you want to be 5 years from now. That "yourself" might be standing between you and who you were created to be. We are to go deep down within ourselves, examine ourselves and become whomever we choose to be.

It’s easy to compare your weaknesses with everyone else’s strengths. Sure, you have flaws and have made mistakes… but so has everyone else, including the people you look up to and admire the most. It’s important to find a group of people who are supportive and appreciate you. This could be a support group, or an online community based on a shared interest. Once you make a habit of talking yourself down, it can be hard to stop. “I hate myself” can sometimes be an intrusive thought—something that just pops into your mind, with no real meaning behind it.

Hating yourself could be exhausting. Constantly being in the state of reprimanding yourself and pointing out your faults is tiresome. But look at anything you do from a different perspective. Say you hate yourself for X reason. If someone else did the same thing, how would you feel about them? Would you eventually forgive them? Would you think that everyone is bound the make mistakes? If the answer to those questions is yes, then think of yourself doing the same thing and telling yourself what you tell others. Tell yourself that you too are human and are bound to make mistakes. Or have qualities that you hate. You aren't perfect and perfection is non-existent. Yes, you can always strive to be better but you can only do so when you cut yourself some slack and start to realize that you are TRYING. Hating yourself would stop you from becoming better. And if becoming better is your goal / becoming that "ideal person" is your goal, you need to learn to love yourself. Sure, the whole process is contradictory and complicated. But by realizing that hating yourself only HURTS you and prevents you from becoming better could maybe make you stop hating yourself in the first place.
