When you truly, honestly hate yourself

I know how you feel. For a long time now I have felt that I am a "bad" person. I do not have a good self image. Just within the last several weeks I have had experiences that seem to reinforce this image of myself. I have been called negative and entitled. I was gobsmacked. Because I did not think this about myself. Unworthy, unlovable, yet, but not that. However this seems to be the way others perceive me. My husband died 2-1/2 years ago after a 59 year marriage. Now I am beginning to wonder if he ever loved me. I have stopped trying to go out anywhere. Knowing I am going to be judged negatively is too much hurt.

Have you had grief counseling. Sounds like you are in a dark place in your life. Please seek help.

@thisismarilynb your husband married you and stayed with you for 59 years, till death. That fact alone is proof positive that he loved you. His death was beyond your or his control.
