What do you hate about yourself?
Depression is bizarre in how in alters the way we think. We may know logically that it is our depression making us think this way but knowing that doesn't invalidate it. So write down what exactly you hate about yourself, let it all out. Once you do look back at what you wrote. Hopefully documenting your thought process will make it easier to work through your issues. Plus we will all be here to help.
I'm a stupid selfish idiot and burden to my loved ones.
Not standing up for myself to begin with
I hate that I am a jealous person, I get angry easily at people when driving. I hate that I am not a neat in my home. I hate that I am sometime lazy. I hate my hair.
I hate that I don't ever do anything good enough. I mess everything up. I'm lazy and fat and am totally worthless
I hate that I am jealous of other women around my husband.
I hate that I over think everything!
I hate that I have no confidence.
I hate that I
I hate that I got lost.
I am not the person that I used to be, that I want to be.
I just want to find that person that I lost inside me so long ago.
I hate that Im an introvert. I hate that Ive wasted so many opportunities that have been presented to me. I hate that I havent gotten myself treatment or even a diagnosis yet. I hate myself for not putting in more effort. I hate myself for the distance that Ive put between myself and other people who have found their way into my life. Im about to be 25 this year and havent even made any new friends since high school (even though Ive lost many of them). 😕

New friends will come into your life, but it will never be like childhood friends. They say if you want friends you have to be a friend. I believe that. However, suffering with depression makes it that much harder. I hope you stick around here.
@HeyImMike All the same here, dude.
I hate the fact that I push people away as a defense mechanism in fear of getting hurt and rejected. I hate this one thing about myself because it is the reason I feel depressed and alone.
@PandaJane Me too... :( Sometimes I want friends, but at the same time I don't.
That I could be cool but I'm not. 😐
