LIKING YOURSELF:

Recovering people often say: "I just don't like
myself. When will I start liking myself?"

Of all the recovery behaviors we're striving to
attain, loving ourselves may be the most difficult,
and one of the most important. If we are habitually
harsh and critical toward ourselves, learning to be
gentle with ourselves may require effort.

By not liking ourselves, we may be perpetuating the
discounting, neglect or abuse we received in
childhood from the important people in our life. We
didn't like what happened then, but find ourselves
copying those who mistreated us by treating
ourselves poorly.

Instead of criticizing ourselves, we can tell ourselves
we performed well enough.

People who truly love themselves do not become
destructively self-centered. They do not abuse others.
They do not stop growing and changing. People who

love themselves well, learn to love others well too.
They continually grow into healthier people, learning
that their love was appropriately placed.
