I have hated myself for so long. Nobody believed or understood that. Best friends or relatives and especially the close ones, nobody got it. There are many forms that "self-hatred" can take. In my case, hating myself is when I was constantly feeling that I am worthy of nothing, that I am a failure , a pitiful entity who exists just to breathe, eat and sleep. That am cursed. I enjoyed it when I failed something even though I cried.I have nothing but emotions and empathic ways towards people and society that would always get me behind everyone and that would always stop me from doing something important. I dream , I "want" but never do. When I talk to people, I ,unconsciously, get distracted by telling myself that I am stupid and that I am trying to say something smart or trying to impress them, so it would be better if I shut up. During class, when our professor is explaining stuff, I, unconsciously shut my brain down so I wouldn't understand a word he or she is saying so afterwards I would tell myself I am so brainless, so smart and I don't even deserve to go to the university. I say "unconsciously" because I don't want to do that, who would want to torture himself/herself like that. Even though I know that I can control it , it is in my head but I don't, because of self-hatred. It is consuming me in a way that i want to cure it , to get rid of it, but something inside me , something deep and dark is not letting me. It is a war in my head. A war between me as pragmatic as I am, and the other me who enjoys torturing me, the other me who hates me. So, I started to asking questions; Why? When did it all start? What do you get from it? Till when? I didn't want to read books, or articles about psychology or go to a shrink. I wanted to find out myself. I haven't come out with much, I just know one thing for the moment, it is all related to my upbringing. My father hated me for no reason, he didn't show me love, and I was raised to believe that I am worthless, that unless I deserve something truly , I am nothing or even if I deserve it , I am still nothing. That hating onself is the normal state of life and not the other way. When I woke up on some days, cheerful, my father would destroy that cheerfulness, cut it to pieces, but saying all the ba3d things one can think about, anything that would send you to the bottom of earth and I would feel sad and then forget. Also, the fact that I am related to him is a reason why I hated myself. Because I believe that all creatures that are related to him, should be erased. Yes, these are dark thoughts. So, I was raised to hate myself as a normal way of living. I loved people more than myself, felt disgust when people told me that they loved me. It made me pand still makes me feel angry. So this is how it works, if you hate me, that I would like you, if you love me that I would immediately hate you. It is like : what do like about me., I am a failure, you must one as well then" ! Too much thinking and thoughts come to me and I always wish that I am normal. Just normal. I am fixing this problem , trying to be the cure , trying to get out...
