I love how beautifully you've articulated all the nuances of self-loathing. It's a nice feeling to have spent the last 20 years thinking well of myself. It's saved my life, literally, more than a few times. And there's always more of that onion to peel. It just keeps getting deeper and deeper. Thank you for drawing a map to those hard to reach spots.
