I Have Low Self Esteem

Some days, when I'm standing alone in my room and I look into the mirror, and I feel well rested and clean and my mind is clear, I actually kind of think I look slightly pretty.

Then I leave my room and am surrounded by other students...

I pretty much have noo self esteem due to many years of bullying, basically everyone made fun of the way I looked, and I admit I'm not the best looking girl out there but I wouldn't wish the kind of treatment I got on anybody. I'm...

I really hate having low self esteem it tires me out. All i think about is how i look to others, do i look ugly today, everyone is staring at me what are they staring at.
I always try and look my best to how i do my make up, what...

I was a very confident person until the day I invited a few friends to my house. They were my very best friends. I left to get them some snacks and I come back to hear them saying all these hurtful things. They said, "Do you see how she...

I've only felt happy four times in my life; I've counted the moments, and none of them were over a minute.

The first, was when I got my first pet. He was a gift from my uncle, a green-cheeked yellow-sided conure. That bird is...

Whether in real life..or online. Tbh online I feel slightly better but when I'm around my friends it's hard to get a word in edgeways and even then it's like what's the point, I don't have anything of real value to say anyway.

I have a big head, horrible face, depression, bipolar disorder, assexual(option because my natural state is gay), crippled by depression over the years, I am talking about 16 years battling this illness. I have no elf-steem cause I am...

I woke up this morning feeling low again, upset that he's going soon. Upset that another online friend is rude to me, upset that he doesn't like me. And then I asked myself why do I have this NEED to be liked?

I'm emotionally...

I've always felt that I was inferior to others and not superior. I just feel that the self esteem has been sucked out of me. I've never felt attractive or pretty. Always felt every female that is my age has it all together and is...

This is something that everyone should see, but especially women. So many times I compliment someone and tell them they are beautiful. I can tell that they don't believe me. I promise that I wouldn't waste the effort to tell you I think...

When I look at myself, in any circumstance, I look contorted or smudged. When I go out, I wear clothes that wouldn't be noticeable. When people look at my I feel as if they're disgusted. It's hard for me because I was never one to judge...

I've struggled with anxiety and probably depression for many years. When I was in my teens I was bullied, I feel because I was pretty. Girls felt threatened by me, well some but not all. I did manage to have at least one best friend...

I have always had a problem with low self-esteem, even when I was young. I think it had something to do with intense embarrassment of doing something wrong or silly in front of people and partly because my father was always at the ready...

is The belief that I have took up. It's been hard to shake this belief, and even harder when people you love make you feel like you are not worthy of love and respect. My problem is I want to be liked, im always searching for some...

I have felt this way literally as long as I can remember...

Deep down, I know that I am nothing. Worthless, disgusting crap that exists to serve everyone else but not find any true happiness. I've felt for a long time that nobody in...

Look in the mirror and ask yourself if you are the type of person you want to marry.

            When I first chose this step, I originally thought the answer would of course be “no”.  I thought of...

My sister sent me this e-mail this morning and I thought I'd share it

One day all the employees reached the office and they saw a big advice on the door on...

As well as being paranoid about my looks I also worry about things as small as going to a new building - I worry that I'll look like an idiot when I can't find the door or I'll be trying to push it when it says pull! I have no...

I struggled with self esteem for years.   Then I stopped caring--that's all it really takes to raise your self esteem--give your self permission to stop caring what others think.   That is a big first step--it's...

I stood in middle of road broke; cornered from all sides and felt there is no light on either sides of dark tunnel.
i decided to fight this battle and asked god to strengthen me and give me one opportunity to fight back.
