True self love... Is way more difficult than just mere self compassion and forgiveness.

True self love is a strange form of intrinsic drive, one that requires reaching authentic selves' depth.

But in theory the same drive as how a loving parent supposed to do everything unconditionally for their own child, except directed at self.

And is distinctive from narcissist types of self love; one that is conditional (keeping up with self image or/and ego's fragile identification).

I think it can be yes. Some people eat for comfort, instead of being truly hungry. Eating can function as an emotional crutch, especially for depressed people.

Agreed. It's one thing to deal with being f****d up, but it's harder when you feel like you're both f****d up and alone in being f****d up. :oops:

My anxiety has gotten so bad. Earlier I was crying in a coffee shop because my tap to pay wouldn't work and even though the barista was super nice my anxiety was through the roof. (I was still able to pay by giving my card number)
