Often what is described as people not loving themselves enough is really too much self-centeredness, such as them being dissatisfied with some aspect of themselves such as their body or their career. Even when people self-critisize , it's really an attempt to get sympathy or validation that they are in fact the opposite of what they say. If someone hated themselves, wouldn't they be glad to suffer and purposely sabotage their lives instead of wanting more or trying to draw sympathy. But I've never heard anyone say that they'd want to be miserable.
