Well my friend, I'd say find the Tao. Sound wierd. O.k. If you want to remember a single word, it is BUILD. Over time, you want to look how to build constructive approaches to problems and things.
First stop worrying about "loving" yourself. Worry about living life learning new experiences and just admit you have limitations and strengths like everything else. You problem probably is not "loving" yourself but that you are holding on to things you cannot change like the past or you strengths and weaknesses. (You can improve on your weaknesses but everybody has different limitations).
What is the Tao anyway? Its the "way", which means its kind of unexplanable. Kind of how things work or how they go smoothly and more, ...
Feeling emptiness is normal. I get that too sometimes. I find being with people helps or doing something I like to do.
Why don;t yu draw something right now. Just grab pencil and paper and draw. Don't worry about the result. When you are finished with that take a walk.
To help you more, probably have to know more about you. Feel free to e-mail me tho here.
In general tho:
1) You can't change the past. Learn from your mistakes but don't beat yourself up over them.
2) Find at least one activity a week, you like to do. Could be as simple as taking a walk.
3) Find at least one activity that puts yo in contact with people with simular interests. (For me thats easy cause Im interested in everything; I have pure ADHD which is another story).
4) ...

When I found out what makes me happy I was sitting down and reading a chapter in my book and I just felt whole and complete. I suggest you think about the times that you think you've touche base with it. Take your time and think about how you are feeling as you are doing things. The happiness is a deeper happiness than the temporary happiness after shopping. Its deeper. Like my friend know she wants to be a mother because when she babysits she feels a strong feeling of love and compassion for the children. And when she thinks about children she feels a strong sense of peace.

We are all our own worse critics and see ourselves in a worse light than those around us. Joseph Campbell states that we find ourselves by following our bliss. You have to figure out what is meaningful and important for you, what are the priorities in your life, is it family? education? travel? wealth? glory? maybe opening a little cafe by the beach (sorry, that one's mine, but doesn't it sound great??). Strive to reach your goals and enjoy the journey along the way.
Sometimes it is only through communication with others that you learn about yourself. If you need to chat you can email me. I promise to listen and communicate positively :).
Good luck!
