I loved your story, I lived through something very similar, it took me more than a year to get up, I looked like a kind of walking mummy because of how bad I was. Although I read that book and many others, in my case it was the Bible that inspired me to love myself and love myself again, the power of love transforms lives, but first we must love ourselves before loving someone else. The power of God's infinite love for us gives us hope and teaches us true love.

I agree. God's love is so infinite that we need to learn from it.
I am glad to know you had your transformations, and it is interesting that yours came from the scripture. I am sure a lot of people have had various transformations from any other means possible. But your case is different, and the fact that you learned to love yourself is beautiful
