For many of us this is a lifelong challenge. And by self acceptance, I don't mean that we be complacent about our shortcomings as if they are no big deal. I have a lazy streak for example that stops me from seeing things through to their conclusion. This can be annoying for all concerned. I can pray for the grace to change that and I do.
But this prayer is our conclusion about ourselves. Am I ok?
Yes I'm ok despite my annoying traits. Because if we can accept those traits in the spirit of "at least I am trying to change the things that need changing for the better, I might develop the same attitude to others. Grow in patience and tolerance. Have positive conclusions about others.
Lord hear us
 
proper self love
You might need to flesh out what that means exactly empowered. For you perhaps, you need to see past the label of mental Illness. We are all much more than our mental illnesses. Until we do, we are stuck in a narrow definition of ourselves.
"Child of God" label is possibly the only label that matters. That label gives us all hope.
