Kind of... I hate that I don't have the confidence to go and talk to others, especially if it's just one person walking by themselves... (which I perfer)

Hates a strong word. I'd say that i'm more frustrated with myself as a result of my short comings. Knowing that I need to put in that extra effort in the vain hope of keeping up with others can be really taxing.

I don't hate myself, but I do have low self-confidence. I dislike wearing short sleeves, because I'm afraid people will dislike my pale arms.

Sometimes I hate myself, the feeling comes and goes. I've had low self esteem since I was a small child though, so it's always there. Lately I try not to dwell on the negative aspects of myself and instead focus on what's good and work to improve that.

I have no confidence either. I don't know if I would say I "hate" myself (I definitely used to) but there are a lot of times where I just wish I could be somebody else.

I am more at peace right now with my level of self hatred....not so much that I want to kill myself or want to become a whole new person....but enough to know that I am no better than any other person....the realization that not every emotion I feel towards myself are actually mine really helps a lot....

I don't think I hate myself or have low self-esteem. I can't take criticism though, so subconsciously I might.

I would call it more like confused most of the time. I just found out I'm so vitamin D deficient that my doctor says he has never seen it that low. I spend so much time indoors because I'm sensitive to the sun. My health suffers from it. I wish I was not so introverted. I spend days and days inside with no other human contact because people just confuse me.

Pretty much like everyone else here. I have self esteem & confidence issues so have real difficulty accepting who I am sometimes and yes in my dark moments I despise myself.

*raises hand*

I often feel like I have no talents or skills, and that I'm just a drain on things. I consume and consume and give little to nothing worthwhile back. I'd like to discover what I'm good at and what I could do to make something of myself, but I can't see that happening any time soon unless I luck out and win the lottery.

It's not useful to hate yourself
