(I'm serious, keep a diary and collect all the good qualities about yourself. All that you've survived, and accomplished, and times you did well. These affirmations will make you recognize that you deserve love, especially self love.)

As long as you're good, you won't have a reason to not love your authentic innocent pathetic self. If you still do, forgive others for their evil instead of letting it rub off on you.

Does it tell you to do drugs?

I'm reading The Devils of Loudun and he stopped writing about the story for a full chapter and started talking about religion/reality. You can tell he just wants to be able to write about doing psychedelics. It was like reading an unedited internal monologue from Joe Rogan or some shit.

No prerequisites. It's an easy read but it can be life-changing. You may not understand every chapter of course, and knowing general background of Nietzsche and his ideas would probably help you with interpreting his words.
