Am I ever gonna get over the self hatred?

I'm trying to detect the triggers...
Is it physical exhaustion and blaming myself for causing it?
Constant disappointment in myself?
Mistakes (that turned out to be okay in reality...) but still grave if turned out otherwise?
Disappointing some people I look up to and respect?
Failing to take care of myself properly?
Failing to manage stress from work and other events?
Failing to focus and keeping the procrastination?

I usually like to radiate good energy around people, but now my closest ones are noticing how sad have I been looking recently.

Is it... the smooth transition of the cycle?

I wish I could find a solution to this low mood of mine.

Overcoming self-hatred is a challenging and deeply personal process. It often requires a significant amount of time, effort, and support. The first step is acknowledging and accepting your feelings, which it seems you've already done by recognizing your self-hatred.
In addition to professional help if you so choose, practicing self-compassion and self-care can be beneficial. This includes treating yourself with kindness, understanding, and patience, just as you would a close friend. Engage in activities that bring you joy, help you relax, and promote a sense of well-being.
It's also important to challenge negative self-talk and reframe unhelpful thought patterns. Notice when you're engaging in self-criticism and try to replace those thoughts with more balanced and realistic ones.
Recovery from self-hatred is not a linear process, and it's normal to experience setbacks along the way. Be gentle with yourself and remember that progress, no matter how small, is still progress. With time, support, and effort, it is possible to develop a more positive and compassionate relationship with yourself.
