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.
my indecisive tendency, my occasionally mindless
Quit asking me this
My anxiety
@cosmicjellyfishqueen
I hate how my worries and thoughts doesn't make any logic, I hate having to worry about everything, I hate that im an overthinker and I overanalyze things, I hate how my worries stop me from doing things, I hate not being able to socialize well, I hate me making a big deal over the silliest thing and that eat me up for days. I hate being me :')
@Exulansis00, you described how I feel about myself, too. what drives me crazy is that we do this to ourselves... it's not even something necessarily affirmed by the outside world! I hope you have some good phases too, though, where you are sure of yourself and know that you are good at what you do and have a lot to feel confident about
@Dorothea29
im sorry you feel the same way too, thank you and yes, I wasn't like this an year ago, but I hope I can gain control over my thoughts and manage it somehow
thank you for your reply *hugs*
@Exulansis00 hugs back! I've found all the events of the last year, plus personal issues have made for a perfect storm of these kinds of feelings, and it's harder to find support than usual. It helps me to remind myself to be patient with myself. We're only human!
I hate myself sometimes because I have so much anxiety in me and when I get caught up with my emotions I have a hard time communicating with people and mess up which makes me doubt myself.
@AmberLilly21, same! it becomes a bit of a self-fullfiling cycle.
no offense, but it seems kind of negative to dwell on what one hates about oneself! And a lot of people mention body parts or whatever... I'm sure you've heard this before, but you are beautiful! I was born with a birth defect, and sometimes I wish I was born unafflicted, but we are all incredibly unique, and that is such an intense beauty.
I hate that I care too much what others think about me.
my personality, my actions, my hair, my voice, my laugh, my response to negative situations, my response to positive situations, my responses in general, the way im so unlikeable, im dramatic, my body and the way i never seem to be happy with it, the way that i've literally been through so many mental health problems, the way i open up to people, the way i treat my friends, the way i treat my family, the way i treat myself, the days i just hate everyone and need to be alone, & so much more. Sorry for the rant lol.
@Lays07 be more confident in yourself! if anything feel free to talk to me I'm here to listen!
@Nicooooooool thanksss, u too
I hate that im this critical of me, that i am good and many things, yet, its hard for me to see it. Even harder is talking about it, others will tell me that im overreacting, seeing things that are not there so i keep silent. Im not responsible for how i was bought up, neither im for my traits of character. Im standing in my own way, and im tired of feeling like my concerns and doubts dont matter, and are not valid.
i feel like an imposter constantly
Literally everything about myself
