    That includes you.

Still working on that bit.

My therapist and I have diverged a bit from our original discussions, because we came up with some good coping skills for bigger problems. (Existential risk, total political immorality, Neo-Luddism) But he's directed me to some interesting reading that indicates that a person can't have a healthy relationship without first loving themselves, and I don't think I ever had that to begin with. When I started working out I used self-loathing as my motivation (Still do somewhat, work in progress) but that doesn't work well, or for long.
