Thanks..but I endured serious self-destructive behaviors in my 20s because the toll finally caught up with me and I had serious distorted views about myself. Thank god, I went to therapy and then discovering ASL and the Deaf community. Even with therapy and the discovery, it was still years before I was able to accept myself. I think the divorce from my ex hubby helped cuz my ex hubby was a part of my old life so as long as I stayed with him, I was reminded of my shortcomings. Once he was out of my life, I was able to truly focus on myself and learn about who I was and how to be the person I am for MYSELF not for others..now, I dont care if people love or hate me. It is ok that not everyone has to like me. LOL!
