well, i never have so its hard to suddenly like myself when i hate every single thing about me. but im trying... i think?
i think its possible to slowly learn and realize that there are a lot of good things about you. a lot of people only concentrate on negative aspects of their selves bc thats usually how were taught to become better - by isolating whats bad and get rid of it. but this kinda midset only makes you focus on bad things and like trains you to look for only the negative stuff and then suddenly it becomes all you see when in actuality theres at least just as much (if not more) positive stuff as well thats gets ignored. so maybe its good to remember that theres always tons of good stuff too and try to actively look for it and if you feel like you still cant see it, try to MAKE good stuff (happen)
idk who said it but happiness is more of a performative act than a fleeting mood or state. being (maybe not consciously but still) actively unhappy theres little in the outside world that will change that
also sorry i hope you dont feel like i wanna berate you its just a lot of things ive had in mind rn and thought might be helpful ;v;

this is a really good mentality!!
