How do I deal with myself?
How can I feel comfort being all by myself without seeking people so that I won't burden them?
Being by myself is lonely and I can't bear to hear myself and stay with myself. I hate me. But I want to tolerate me.

I don't know if I'm the perfect person for this, as I actually like to stay alone a lot, but here are some tips:

Romanticize the quiet time. Think about self improvement, if you will. Wind down, watch something, make a snack, play a game, spend time with your pet (if you have one, and yes, they count!), read if you will, do a workout, achieve something - do something for yourself, by yourself. You don't need anyone to make you feel comfort or 'be' yourself. You are you! You aren't a burden to anyone, so be kinder to yourself. Sit down alone with your thoughts, stay quiet, feel it. Live in the moment and be true to yourself.
