@Marf That is so like me too being so unaccepting of myself when I could never look at another child, or even another adult who has been through the similar things in the same way. One of my therapists used to try and get me to be in touch with my compassionate self towards myself too, but when its all mixed up with the emotions and hurt it feels so much harder to do. I definitely find it easier to look at it from the third person and do know in reality that there is no way it really was my fault but allowing myself to really connect to it and not just want so much to destroy everything about myself is still so hard when it is so hard to know how else to even deal with the emotions. In reality at the time that was the only way and safest way to deal with it, but now is so self destructive and doesn't help at all, but it really is so hard to feel safe in the middle of all the emotion and really does just hurt so much.
