Reddit reviews Unworthy: How to Stop Hating Yourself

http://www.amazon.com/Unworthy-How-Stop-Hating-Yourself-ebook/dp/B00FX7R1NY/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&sr=&qid= The kindle version is 11$, which is what I have.

Its approach is more autobiographical, like a memoir of someone's realizations with examples and advice about tackling specific issues. What I found helpful about the writing is that it shies away from the very common "Love yourself!" mantra that many self help books push. Instead, it's even simpler, start by learning how to not hate yourself. Self love and self acceptance can follow if we stop digging ourselves into holes with our learned coping mechanisms. The entire tone of the book is partially comedic and partially pragmatic. It's also helped me frame a lot of my (now detrimental) behaviours in a light that helps me understand why I developed them, why they "worked" (in abusive situations), and why they are keeping me back, now, from the type of life that I actually want.
