I hate myself with a passion

[sallyskellington]

and I've tried to work on it to no avail. So now what do I do?

Hi Sally, I've wondered how you were doing. We've talked about this before. I wonder, can you tell us about growing up? What was your family like? Where they supportive or did they find fault a lot? Was there a feeling that your couldn't quite do anything right? How did you do in school?
What can you tell us that might give a window into where these feelings came from?
We know you can be a sweetie!

Sally, I'm sorry to have not seen you before but I'm a rather new member. Please share with us what makes you feel so much hate for yourself. Often times we're our own worst critic and many people around see so much good. It can't be all bad dear. Believe in it or not but we (Buddhists) believe having a human birth is one of the best ones you can achieve and that all life is precious and deserving of love and compassion.

Please let us know so we can if not help, at least make our best attempt to.

Any idea when you started having feelings of self-hatred? What have you tried to do to work on it? What exactly do you not like about yourself? Break it down for us, Miss Sally, so we can try to help...

Wild,
I was kinda well off. I pretty much did what I wanted when I wanted with however much money I needed. I don't really know what you mean by supportive they always gave me money for anything I wanted so I guess they were. Yeah I was kinda the black sheep blue hair piercings ect. And I didn't do well in school but I barely ever went to school I was usually off drinking somewhere or getting messed up in some form so my last two years I was on home teaching.

By supportive I meant emotionally. How involved were your parents in your life? How caring?

[sallyskellington]

Like I said they gave me money to do whatever I wanted so I guess thats supportive to me it is anyway. We aren't those mushy emotional people.

Did u know you posted pics of yourself on your page? Dont know why you dont like yourself, since you're an absolutely gorgeous piece of work...So perhaps this is something more deep-rooted than how attractive you feel you are (or arent)...
