Who here loves them selfs and accepts who they are? and who they will become knowing that its your life and whatever happens you will always have your loved ones? Now i know their are people out their with no one, But when i was in this state of mind i always remembered my friends became my family when my family was never really their...

Do you love yourself? if not why?
It took me until I was almost 16 to realize this, and you are right. Until you can love and accept yourself unconditionally, you cant fully love others because you will always be at least a little busy feeling sorry for yourself. I was doing alot of it, and Im glad I got out of that depression funk. Just like everybody else, Ive done some incredibly fucked up shit. And if my psychotic ass is saying its fucked up... its gotta be some FUCKED UP SHIT. But like others have said, its what made me who I am. I wouldnt give up the worst pains and tortures, trials and tribulations in my life for all the world... they are why I am so strong willed. I embrace my psychosis and in doing so, am able to finally control it the way it was meant to be controlled. When I have reached a point in my life when I no longer need to utilize my hatred as fuel to drive me further, I can release it completely and maybe then I will achieve my nirvana. Until then all I can do is keep on loving! And storing my frustrations and hate deep down for when I might need to use that explosive fuel. Its so unstable and scary though.. I havent used it since I was 14, and it scared the shit out of me. I gotta periodically find ways to release it when it starts gettin towards the bottleneck.

To answer the question definitely: Yes I love myself absolutely and unconditionally. If YOU cant love yourSELF... who the fuck can?? Thats how I looked at it. I had to attain a bit of a blunt outlook... you cant really ease out of depression, you gotta slap yourself the fuck out of it lol
