Hi. First of all, I used to have low self esteem and probably still do...about my appearance, how I always am afraid of failing, and general afraid that I'm not who I want to be. I used to see myself as a total failure because I would take on a job and screw up, partially because I was so uncomfortable and so insecure that I froze. And I always compared myself to other people's successes, and I downsize my acheivements until they are worth little. Or I used to anyway.
So I have had my share of low self esteem. Just to put my 2 cents here...it's great taht we are all discussing why we have low self esteem, so that we understand ourselves better.
However at one point or another, try to post in that "Go Me" forum in the Pinned Posts. It's important, since we often don't look at our good deeds and achievements as success. We need to boost our own self esteem by ourselves by acknowlegding what we do well.
Therefore, I'd like to know if all of you guys who have posted about low self esteem, have felt good about yourselves at any time this week, and why?
Remember- POST in "GO ME"
My tears will be hidden behind this fake grin
You can see me through these metal bars-I won't let you in
It's my life and I screwed it-You're not to blame
And though I keep on trying, it's so hard to change.
