I did not get motherly affection as a kid and that has been the core problem for me. I do not love myself. Lack of self love leads to being dependent on other people for approval for the rest of your life, and that often leads to depression and suicide. Had anyone succeeded in reparenting themselves? I have tried a bunch of self compassion and inner child work, and Internal Family Systems too. Things just don't work for me, I am so fucking stuck and don't know how to get out of this mental hell.
