Self-loathing is the infamous cause of many cases of depression and anxiety. There are so many reasons of self loathing. Today, I want to point out three of the most common ones. First, personal problems such as conflict between friends or between your own family. Many teenagers go through depression because of the pressure that their cliques or families have put on them. When they fail on meeting these standards, they get really hard on themselves to the point of hate. Comparing is also one of the many reasons of self-loathing. To come to think of it, how do you say something is bad if you haven't

Do something new every single day that makes you feel good. It doesn't have to be super crazy. Whatever it takes, just do it. I am sure that everyone here has a plan
