As pronouns the difference between self and yourself is that self is (obsolete) himself, herself, itself, themselves; that specific (person mentioned) while yourself is (reflexive) your own self.
Q. Do I use I or me in a sentence?
Sometimes it can be tricky to determine if you should be using “me” or “I” in a sentence. Use the pronoun “I” when the person speaking is doing the action, either alone or with someone else. Use the pronoun “me” when the person speaking is receiving the action of the verb in some way, either directly or indirectly.

Q. How do you use I and I in a sentence?
It’s “you and I” when it’s the subject of the sentence. For example, “You and I should go to the movies tonight.” It’s “You and me” when we are the object of the sentence, as in, “Jack said mean things about you and me.” An easy way to tell which is correct is to drop the word “you”.
Q. How do you use me and mine?
Me and mine are both first person singular pronouns, but me is personal, while mine is possessive. They cannot be freely exchanged.
Q. Where do we use me and my?
It refers back to the subject of the sentence. Use myself instead of me when the object is the same person as the subject. Use myself after a preposition when the object of the preposition is the same as the subject of the sentence, or the when object of the preposition and the object pronoun are the same person.
Q. How do I say myself and someone else?
So, to answer your question, you only use “myself and someone else in a sentence” when you are the subject of the verb and you and someone else are also the object: “I made dinner for my wife and myself.”
Q. Should you end a sentence with me or myself?
In general, when the speaker is the object of a verb, but not the subject, choose me. When the speaker is both the subject and the object of a verb, choose myself. Since myself and subject both contain the letter S, this should be an easy rule to remember.
