It can be difficult to accept yourself as you are. I can definitely relate. I think it’s important to be patient with yourself and realize that it can take time. Sometimes it helps me to think about all my strengths, if you don’t know what those are or can’t think of any, there are plenty of online assessments that can help you there. Practicing a hobby that I’m interested in can also help sometimes :)

Wishing you the best. Take care!

I'm sorry you feel this way, I understand how it can be difficult for someone toaccept themselves and love themselves let alone not dislike themselves. I have had similar struggles in the past and they sometimes still come up for me. Something I would suggest as already mentioned is self-love workbooks and using positive affirmations to help with your self-esteem. These self-love workbooks sometimes seem silly but they honestly really do help with time and dedication. I can send you one I found online for free if you're interested. And also doing things I love and spending time with those I love has really helped me. Sometimes it's easier for people around us to see our valuable attributes than it is for ourselves to see them. Hobbies are also a good idea for example I really like writing so I do some journaling and write poems from time to time, I also like playing guitar and learning new songs helps me improve my self-esteem and love muyself more because I become proud of what I have been able to accomplish. I think it is important to give yourself credit for your accomplishments and make time to practice self-care. I hope this helps a little bit and that you have a good rest of the day :) Let me know if you ever need to talk
