How do you love yourself? I mean truly,,, truly believe I'm loveable,,, to have faith in my worth n confidence,,, not the rational part of me saying that but my mindset simply hinders me from achieving that by being stick with low self esteem. Or whatever inferiority complex be running in my head saying I'm a burden of not enough etc etc đź’” I know I'm a kind person, but how do you be kind to yourself? Is it a matter of respecting yourself??? Saying no,,, setting boundaries,, surrounding yourself w good ppl. Taking care of yourself?? I do not know cuz I've very briefly tried these things no I think I'm bad at it,, Im not willing to give up that easy tho !! i understand different things work for everyone,,, but any advice would be appreciated greatly!1! :D <3

I think loving yourself means accepting yourself. Stop adjusting to your surroundings. Have self respect in a way that don’t put others down etc. Loving yourself is trying to make you better, not fix. Because you’re not a tool, you’re not a toy. You’re a human being with feelings and emotions, all that’s valid. Do a pros and cons list of yourself (I know that sounds goofy but) do that until you have more pros than cons. You can go on for how long. Like pros:I like the way Jimmie tilts his toes when he wiggles his nose. All love to you stranger, take care now dear<3

Hey, stranger! I see that you're having a problem with yourself and I think the best start you can do is to accept who you truly are. You should start doing things that YOU want, the things that makes you happy and all. By doing so you'll find happiness and that will be the start of it all. Although all the things that you said can help you love yourself, it won't be possible if you can't accept who you are. (I mean loving oneself have different meaning for different persons but I really this'll help) Keep fighting, pal!!! Never give up! I hope you'll eventually love yourself and be happy and when that day comes I hope you know that you deserve every single bit of it! Also I just wanna say that I think you're a fun and amazing person.

hey! try starting small but consistently, for example by listening to what you want or setting boundaries with people. and don't beat yourself up over details. you think you failed because you didn't set a boundary that one time? you'll get a new chance, it's just a reset. the "actually loving yourself" part comes eventually and slowly over time while you change your behavior, at least it did for me. I had basically no confidence or actual self love until I graduated and suddenly had other surroundings besides school and the people there. that kind of helped me discover my personality. don't expect it to come overnight, it's completely normal if the feeling of loving yourself just slowly creeps into your life and it reflects the way you treat yourself :)
