[@ricklorion]

The hardest thing to do is go to the mirror and honestly say to yourself without flinching say to yourself while meaning it: "I love myself"

[@InfinitePinecone]

Yeah that feels literally impossible to me. But I want to see if it is possible, one day.

[@johnjohnjohnson7720]

And doing a hand stand

[@G_Zilly]

id do that but i think the people behind the mirror would laugh at me if i did

[@johnjohnjohnson7720]

@ 32% chance but if you did a handstand tho-

[@christinebridgman9148]

@InfinitePinecone Something I like to do is, when I tell myself in the mirror that "I love myself" and it doesn't feel like I'm saying the truth, I try and reword it till it feels true. Sometimes, I might say, "I'm working on loving myself more." I might also say two truths at the same time, such as, "I'm working on loving myself more AND it can be difficult sometimes." I personally attend Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy to address why I don't love myself and how to talk to myself so that I feel loved. It also addresses that initial thought that sometimes comes into my head automatically or that physical feeling of pain in my heart when I feel unlovable. Hope this helps x

[@Katastr0phic_Katicorn]

Remember that healing is NOT LINEAR! You may be coddling yourself AND being accountable AND growing and avoiding things all at once. All progress can feel like small progress. Celebrate your wins.

[@Useless-e7f]

Y’all I might be stupid but I just realized how the little leaves on the little peoples heads represents growth. It might not be intentional or it’s probably just meant to be a cute art style, but it’s a cool detail either way.

I’m currently on a journey of trying to love myself. It’s hard to remember to be kind with myself. Sometimes I feel like I’m on stage 4, sometimes I feel like I’m back to stage 1. But I believe that I can get there eventually; and you can too!

[@ferret_lover2665]

It's so hard to be able to accept how wobbly the path to growth and change can be. I believe in you!

[@DavidOrtiz-tl1ix]

Rewiring our neurons that have been wired for a long time can be very hard to change, but never impossible. Let's go and rewire them and share our knowledge just so others can see any steps matter.

[@MLFv2]

Turns out im much closer to having a healthy relationship with myself than i thought. This video actually made me feel better ❤

[@memyself4431]

@@MLFv2 hi, I agree with your comment! I ended a 5-month (situationship) I think that I was hard on myself because I should have know it was what is was and wouldn’t ever work out! I am my worst critic. I think that as far as we are making progress we will be ok.

[@MLFv2]

@memyself4431 amen. I hated and beat myself down for most of my life, I'm about to turn 30 in a month and am genuinely surprised at how much I improved in the last half a year. It's not about perfection. It's about trying. And as long as we try and are patient with ourselves great things will happen ❤️

[@InfinitePinecone]

I often feel like, even when I understand the incredibly rough situation I'm in, telling myself that It's not my fault, or that i'm not lazy, hardly works. I want to step away from requiring outside encouragement and praise and actually telling them to myself. It feels impossibly hard, but if a channel like this is saying it, it must be possible for me in some capacity. Thank you so much for the videos you post. It's like KZbin reads my mind.

[@NautilusShell142]

Something that really helped me when I’m beating myself up over a mistake I made is forcing myself to honestly answer the question “is this going to matter 10 years from now” and more often than not the answer is no. Helps me let go of a lot of emotional weight!

[@Chronade]

Self-love for me, is getting to see myself the way God wants me to, coz I'm the one that He's been loving on all this time 🧡

[@air1c581]

Feeling like I was unwanted, disrespected and played has made it a task yet I’m making progress in isolation- my mind matters and so does the rest of me❤ I’m opening myself up to new possibilities 🎉

[@СофияВеликая-т1г]

It really has taken me aback that I am on the fifth stage of loving myself. Actually, I do A LOT of self-cuddling combined with workoholism. And my not eagerness to change was revealing itself through my work (I blamed everyone except me at times). Now I am trying to be less anxious, to take life easier, to go with the flow and the most important - somehow to improve my teaching skills

[@MegchilapesReturn]

i love the self love video because it’s really hard to love yourselves i love my self really but i use to be insecure to but then i let it all go and accepted the fact that everyone has flaws and im just a human to i can’t control it so it’s better to embrace your flaws and put yourself first

Remember, self-love isn't selfish 😌

[@Bosszombie879]

I don’t like self awareness I just like helping people literally because I don’t know I just feel like it

[@SpholeYT]

But, bro tip?: Write, sing, play something, make something, go for a run, not a scheduled one, be impulsive, enjoy everything you look at, question everything you know and crave for what you dont, do stupid shit and enjoy doing so "Live as if you were to die tomorrow; learn as if you were to live forever" I dont remember who said it, i think Gandhi did, but i dont know, someone important for sure tho, i know that, just dont care enough to look it up Its something i live by and i think its a great thing

[@SpholeYT]

And if its not clear yet, i feel the same thing

[@AC-ni4gt]

To be honest, some people are much more naturally able to be self-aware than others. I would know because I'm one of them and actually consulted professionals about it. It has its worse days but for the most part, I'm comfortable with it.

@ORROProductionss the pep talk before running on to battlefield

[@Yukajoseph]

Recently, I had a challenging split. The breakup of my five-year relationship a few months ago has been quite difficult. I still harbor a deep affection for my ex-boyfriend, and I can't seem to stop thinking about him. My attempts to win him back have been unsuccessful, and at this point, it seems impossible to be with anybody else. It may seem strange to admit this, but I miss him terribly and can't stop thinking about him.

[@yala-n2m]

I completely understand the pain of letting go of someone you love. I went through a similar experience when my 10 year relationship ended. I couldn't imagine my life without him, so I tried everything to rekindle our love. I eventually found guidance from a spiritual counselor, and their support helped me bring him back into my life if you're open to it, seeking help from a spiritual counselor might make a difference.

[@Yukajoseph]

How did you find your spiritual counselor, and how can I get in touch with them?

[@yala-n2m]

His name is Father Obah Eze and he's an incredible spiritual counselor known for helping restore relationships.

[@yala-n2m]

He can assist you; he is Father Obah Eze, and he possesses immense powers.

[@Yukajoseph]

I simply used your useful information to look him up online. Amazing I looked up Father Obah Eze online, and he seems like a sincere person. Again, thank you ❤

[@marjorienyachiya7627]

Your videos have been my everything for years now so thank you ❤ truly you don’t get how much you’ve helped me

[@dl4037]

I have no problem with being disciplined and doing what is right for my future self and not what I like to do in the moment. I am very good at this, luckily since years I am following through with working on my problems. With time I learned to.... maybe not love and respect myself a bit more. It is hard, when you struggle with mental health you have to take so many many tiny steps forward and over years you progress... I think just aiming for self acceptance, and saying "hey, I it is okay how I am, I don't have to work on my problems, I have to just accept them as part of myself" is something many people get stuck at, real change is a tough fight. I am a fighter and I will continue. Thanks, I needed that video right now.

I don't think I ever went through a self-coddling stage 😗 I treat myself occasionally. Like, after exams in college, I'd order my favorite burger.

[@IceManual]

Thank you so much. Im rebuilding my self love steadily. I accidentally slipped and had to teach someone close to me to learn how to self love and why its essential fo any mesningful growth or satisfaction in life. Im ready to take it all back for me, sfter i realize just how much they tried to trick me into thinking my rational approaches were not really where they aligned, but they did agree to alot of what i said and helped them reach the conclusion for alot. One thing i can day was hearing them say i love myself was one of the hardest things to ever hear. Because it just wasn't true, from every inch of sensibility in me could tell. I hope theyre off to do better for themselves, but its back to flying solo. I missed and love me. I was near whwt felt like pure enlightenment. But oh boy. But hey thats life! What would it be without the ups and downs? And i wouldnt have ever reached my original self love and compassion if i hadnt been through so much in life before. Thank you, psych2go. 😊

[@ChloeWebster-c4m]

this video has encouraged me to start this week by week plan. each week i set goals and if i dont meet all the goals then i have to repeat that week until i do. if i complete a week then i level up the goals until i get where i want to go. this plan will require me to follow all the steps and i might have to rewatch this video. i hope this inspire others to do the same, its starting to benefit me and i hope it does the same to others

[@DavidOrtiz-tl1ix]

I'm going to be a bit transparent here. I struggle to love myself because of my mind always thinking about the past and what I did and others did to me. But slowly taking the steps to changing my default way of thinking and changing the narrative of my life that my mind has been given me habitually. Learning to confront your past and also realizing that it doesn't have to define you, even if others say otherwise. You're taking the steps forward to change your life for the better in order to (make up for past mistakes). I won't say what I did in the past since it can be a bit controversial (You can use your imagination to fill in the gaps of what that could be, but what do you gain from that?), but I acknowledged and have told people I trust about what I did and did everything in my power to be transparent of what I did. I was young, but it doesn't excuse the damage I did, but it also doesn't mean I'm bound to do it again as long as I'm making the steps to decrease the chances of it ever happening again by surrounding myself with others that will help me shape my environment for the better. I have to believe that my brain is neuroplastic enough to rewire the neurons into healthier connections that not only benefit me, but others aswell. I'm just happy my past self took the steps to get to this very moment of me leaving this comment for a slight chance someone might read it. Even if no one reads it, my brain is taking one more step in changing the world for the better, even if it's only .0000000000000000001% in the grand scheme of things. The change it feels for me feels greater than any percentage I can give this feeling. Thank you so much for posting this video. Funny how this video was posted by someone else from a discord group that I quickly skimmed through and see what's happening. What are the chances of that!

[@justnormaluser_3758]

[@teenieweeniemimie]

For me I'd say it's finfing myself stuck in an old patttern of thought. Like when things go wrong and going down a negative route. But it's not as bad as it used to be so its still a step in the right direction

[@WalmartBaggie-n7q]

I love your videos, it helped me a lot that I even gave myself a second chance to STAY ALIVE. And sometimes when I'm about to do something not exactly bad but.... lets call it "not normal" I always think about your videos and look for better options or the consecuences of doing it, and getting into the correct path. I'm really REALLY thankful to know you, and I know I'm not the only one here, there's so many people that had a hard time in their lives and had some thoughts and even suicidal thoughts just to mention some of them. What I'm saying is I think you saved and changed ... so many lives and the way of people thinking. Thank you

[@AtLanTis-mx8vz]

I learned that when you love yourself you always try to improve yourself 😊. Work hard and discipline yourself ❤

[@gurthjitsumaster9697]

Im stage 2ish. I accept all of myself but I defiantly don't like the bad and it's all set in stone. The bad parts suck and are all a part of me but I won't change them because it just doesn't feel right. I hate change no matter what it is, especially change to what I feel like is my own self image. I am what I am what I am and nothing else ever no matter what. I have a very very very strong sense of identity so changing myself is not an option, though I'm definitely not opposed to trying new things, they just need to vibe with my strict rules of self to be tried and especially to stay afterwards.

[@ali_wahid-89]

[@ziluslules1201]

I think one thing people think is weird about self love is the whole "im learning something new everyday" type sentences like its cliché or cringe, but it mostly helps, but also you can say the same thing but in different words like i would say "ill do my best next time~" as "welp damn, GAME OVER MAN GAME OVER!" in a way that makes me laugh and still get that feeling that ill try again next time

[@DnTironfilms]

So basically the old greek nailed it with the concept of stoicism, right? Loving yourself truly means working up and maintaining a healthy growth mindset. Everyone’s already a main character, we are already worth of becoming the hero of our personal story. No one would ever doubt their favourite fictional character to make it. In fact we are gripped by the story, the challenges the hero needs too overcome, the relief and the satisfaction when they glow up in their final form earned by hard work. Mary Sues are boring, luckily they don’t exist in real life. So here is the take away: Become the source of your own happiness and satisfaction, become the hero of your story! Only rewards will lay ahead.

[@Infinitesimal-ho7it]

If your lack of motivation has to do with burnout/depression that is an ache in you bones, sinew and brain, foster and improve your gut biome, take tumeric and other natural anti-inflammatories. Low-nutrition, starchy/sugary foods and sustained stress causes a slow burn degradation to your body. Taking care of that will help get that shitty ache out. Then, start adding exercise in little by little. Start with somatic exercises. They are low intensity and low endurance. Some of them you can do while still in bed. Then, start adding in the more demanding exercises as you feel up to the challenge (or challenge yourself). Make all of this lifestyle. Just know that you can revisit any of it as you need to.

I don't feel ready to love myself. Yes, I'm in tune with my emotions and thoughts, know my strengths and weaknesses. I don't have a purpose, but I still have things and people that keep me going. Despite all that, it feels so superficial to love myself. Society tells you that you "can't be loved by anyone else if you can't love yourself". I don't want to love myself just because I want somebody else to love me. Whether they like it or not, I value being honest with myself. And the honest truth is that I don't feel deserving of love.
