How do you get past hating yourself?

I'm not sure what kind of a person I would need to become. Or what I can become, at this point. But... finding that out would probably be a good first step.

There is a voice far louder than my thoughts that I want to listen to. It's the reason I'm even asking these questions.

As long as you work towards improving, towards moving away from the person you don't want to be, sometimes the person you can become just sorta... happens? Or, you start to see it, at least.

Good. Having voices like that helps. Voices you'd do anything for. The one inside doesn't really ever go away, but

Maybe it gets quieter? Or you stop listening for it? It just feels less... powerful.

That makes sense. Definitely something to keep in mind as I search for my way.

The voice of mine is definitely one that can bring me back from my darkest of thought and make everything seem better.
