I would never talk to another person the way I talk to myself. No one deserves that.
So! A thing that helped me was to depersonalize my self-hate so it's like I'm viciously ripping into a different person. That makes me feel gross, like a bully or something, and I now do it much less. Gotta have empathy for the stranger that is yourself.
I think I've mostly partitioned off my brain into "me" and "my brain, who horks up random thoughts"

This article describes how to combat an overactive inner critic, but I believe his book does a better job. But it's still worth a read.
Consider buying the book or you can download it for free at this link.
