Is it normal that i reverse my self-hate?

I hate myself. I also have a big ego which stops me from hating myself. So, instead of hating myself, I reverse the hate and direct it at other people. For example, I hate my looks and I would hate myself for it, but instead, I direct the hate at attractive people.

I hate myself so much, I think I'm becoming a misanthrope. (Quite an oxymoron, isn't it?) I know that's probably not normal but I think it's much better than hating yourself. What do you think?

    That's not the right way to go. By redirecting your negativity onto others, not only are you causing negativity for them but, you are running away from your problems because you are not dealing with them directly from the source. How can you learn to love yourself if you can't even learn to love your fellow human being?

    Idk... This post is full of backwards ass psychological run around. You can't hate yourself and simultaneously have a big ego...it's dichotomous.

    Taking your insecurities out on others... Seems pretty normal.

    Maybe you would feel better about yourself if you didn't have to be an asshole to feel good.

    I have been noticing that I am giving up on myself so much that I have no respect for how I am perceived by others. in other words, I am starting to not care so much so, that if I hurt others I believe they are the stupid ones for taking an idiot like me self, seriously. also need to change my way of thinking. it is not easy though. good luck! look into CBT, DBT and speaking with a mental health professional. good luck

    Narcissism isn't healthy, yo. How about instead of overcoming self-loathing through the loathing of others, you just don't do the first part? Talk to a therapist.
