[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think self-love is profound selfishness. I also had a therapist decide to DEBATE me about my religious beliefs (Catholicism) because he was one of those supreme atheists. I am extremely wary of ever doing therapy again after that. I just want tools to combat my OCD.[/quote] I disagree that self-love is selfishness -- they are not the same things because their underlying intentions and effects differ. Self-love is essentially a positive and healthy attitude towards yourself, characterized by self-acceptance, self-care, and self-compassion. While profound selfishness is characterized by an excessive and unhealthy focus on your personhood at the expense of others. Self-love is a positive and necessary aspect of well-being, whereas profound selfishness is a negative and harmful behavior.[/quote]
