Sometimes, I hate myself, because I have sich a hard time succeeding in pretty much anything, especially weight problems. Does anyone else feel this way sometimes?

    I used. About ten years ago, I was a drug addict, found myself pregnant and had lost my dad (who raised me). It wasn't until I found how to strength my mental state through exercise, and accepted what God's plan was for me that I learned to love myself.

    Instead of focusing on your failures, examine your achievement. Set short term goals and follow through on them. The way to do this is to strengthen your mind. Know that when you achieve a goal you've set for yourself you will feel a sense of accomplishment and this will lead to loving yourself.

    Good luck, remember you are your own best friend.

    Happens all the time. Just have to remember to love yourself too. I recommend you find that one thing that you are great at and embrace it. If you ask your friends you might find you don't even know what it is. You have your whole life to succeed. life is about failures and successes. If you aren't failing at something you aren't trying hard enough.

    Best wishes, keep going.

    That's a self-affirmation. You believe what you tell yourself. Instead of focusing on your negatives, focus on the things you can do and the better things about yourself. They are within you, you just need to find them.

    Loosen up on being judgmental on yourself, support all your positive beliefs, argue with the one within you telling yourself all the negative thoughts, defuse negative thoughts by compiling contradictory evidence. Finally, become aware of all the thoughts you think about.

    I believe in you! Best of everything!

    Our successes are in direct proportion with our failures. But, the number of times we succeed are also in direct proportion with the number of times we have fallen down, gotten back up, dusted ourselves off, and tried again.
