I think both things can be true, actually. The capacity we have to love each other is limitless, but still, to be truly fulfilled and at peace you definitely need to love yourself. It also increases your ability to be there for others in a fully present and healthy way. Pain + Love = Love. Love + Love = Love Exponentially!

One things for sure, loving yourself helps to reduce your anxiety and depression. Especially with social anxiety.

I have yet to find this altruistic love you speak of. Happy for you Chuck! I had to learn to love myself to survive.

I don’t love myself because I’m legitimately not worthy of love. I’m trying to improve so I can be someone I like, but it’s so hard to improve.
