Do you hate yourself? Healing from self-hatred

Join us for a live episode of All in the Mind at Podfest in Adelaide this March. You can enter to win tickets here. Many of us have felt self loathing at some point in our lives — maybe when you've failed at an important task at work, or lost an important relationship. But some people hate themselves all the time — their inner monologue is a constant drumbeat of self-criticism and self-loathing. Where does this kind of all-encompassing self-hate come from? And is there a way to unlearn it? We speak to psychiatrist Dr Blaise Aguirre, author of I Hate Myself: Overcome Self-Loathing and Realize Why You're Wrong About You. This episode discusses the topic of suicide - please take care while listening. If you're looking for something to listen to next, check out our episode Can we trust our memories?
