Self-Hatred

Self-hatred can be a pervasive and debilitating force, casting a shadow over every aspect of your life. It can manifest as a relentless inner critic, constantly berating you with negative thoughts and beliefs about your worth. You might find yourself trapped in a cycle of self-blame, feeling unworthy of love or happiness. These feelings can lead to isolation, low self-esteem, and difficulty forming healthy relationships.

Self-Harmful Behaviors

When self-hatred becomes overwhelming, it can sometimes lead to self-destructive behaviors.
