I don't have an actual answer, but here's my guess and thoughts.
See yourself through the eyes of the people who do love you.
They know you're not perfect, but they still love you because you bring happiness, light, good things in general into their lifes.
If you can aknowledge your faults, and keep working on becoming a better person, but also see your good qualities, I think that's the point you can start loving yourself.
In other words: You don't need to be perfect, but at the same time strive to be better while knowing you have plenty of good qualities.
I don't know if I'm making any sense, but those are my initial thoughts anyway.

@TheRealBarbossa people around me (family, culture, friends, etc) are so toxic and don't love me and also I feel I am also toxic and bring only bad luck .

@sahi81 I'm so sorry to hear that.
I doubt you're toxic however, because you recognise how those around you are toxic.
If you were truly toxic, you'd think you were all normal and not give it a other thought.

@TheRealBarbossa I am trying to heal from my toxic behaviours . I recently fully recognised the people around me are are "always" too mean. I did think meaness was normal until recently.
