I took a long break to try and find myself after my last relationship. Now I feel like I could start dating again, but feel like I have lost the „requires skills“. What general advice for people like me can you give me?

So I want to explain a little further just because I feel like it.

My last relationship ended... horrible to put it mildly. I felt disgusted with myself and viewed myself as trash. I really and truly hated myself. A couple of people noticed my extreme sadness and helped me get therapy. For a while it looked like everything was slowly starting to get better until a series of events caused me to feel down again. So basically the entire process restarted for me. With a lot of hard work and compassion from my family and friends (and surprisingly my professor) I came back on my feet. A couple of weeks ago I started to feel genuinely happy again. I value myself again. I enjoy life. And although I still didn‘t feel like dating someone today was the day I felt attraction to another person again. Now I want to start dating again (not with this person cuz reasons) but I feel kind of lost tbh. I kind of forgot everything I had previously learned and have to start from point zero. So I am asking you guys.
