I feel good about myself.
-
nope, I have NO self esteem.
-
I wouldnt say that i have low self esteem, but i would say that im very self conscious if that makes any sense
-
How would I know?
-
For the most part, I have pretty good self-esteem, but it fluctuates.
-
Yes , I'd say I do have low self esteem most of the time
-
Glasses come in so many trendy styles now. Are you afraid they will change your looks so drastically?
-
yes i have low self esteem
-
I am ok so far!!lol
-
No, I have pretty high self-esteem.
-
I try to have medium. There is such thing as too low of self-esteem just as there is too high of self-esteem(aka. pride), so I try to have medium. I hope this helps. :) -In the Master's service. Thank you and God bless you!
-
No I do not.
-
Not really, I just don't care what people think of me, I am who I am
-
Not any more. although I had very low self esteem when I was younger. In my case developing more self-belief coincided with developing my career, when I realised I had ambitions I realised I had started to have more confidence and faith in myself.
-
I use to have very low self-esteem... I still do but not as much...
-
Sometimes it hits rock bottom but then i work it out and put it back up there where it belongs :)
-
yes
-
Not as much as I used to..but still not great in my opinion.
-
Negative, my self esteem has improved over time, I am doing much better now thank you for asking.
-
Yes , sometimes I do
-
yes i do ,due to family member saying the meanest things, due to friends saying mean things from an early age after a while you tend to believe this things are true and lack the stranthe to say your mind to them .
-
No, I've stopped being dependent on people for my happiness.
-
I'm actually complacent with it most of the time.
-
Yes I do. I have from an early age, it's always been a feeling that has been ongoing, and I now rely on medication to make me feel better. People say I shouldn't rely on drugs, but if it makes me feel more happier and content with my life I am happy to rely on them :)
-
I have it but it dosen't mean I suffer.I know I'm not the best despite my effort.So my low self esteem makes me work harder.I think it's a good thing.
-
Yes. At least I think so. Sometimes, like when I'm with a new bunch of people. Othertimes no. But on the whole, mainly yes. In a couple of years time I will be able to tell you for sure (I'm doing a psych degree at uni).
-
I don't suffer, I enjoy it immensely! Actually, yeah, I think I probably do.
-
I'm fine with my low self esteem. It's my low bank balance that is causing the suffering!
-
I don't consider myself to have low self esteem, rather I find that I have moments of insecurity. I think those are natural, and I don't worry too much about them. I work through the moments, and usually respond by meeting my 'fear' head-on. As a child, I was very much down on myself. As I got older, I found ways to conquer the self esteem demons. I think those ways are different for everyone, but I found that mine was anxiety-based, and breathing techniques were a huge help.
-
I have low self-esteem, but I live with, I do not suffer with it.
-
2 or 3 years ago, when I was downright depressed. At that time, I do not dare to stand straight and be confident. The only thing in my sight is the floor, maybe this is the cause of my imperfect posture, my heads tend to be in front of my body. Bad posture...
-
I've dealt with low self-esteem my whole life...but I'm working on it!
-
i have low self esteem because im not "pretty" but i go 2 public school so who is?
-
no, I have a good self esteem, thanks to GOD
-
I used to, but not anymore.
-
You have no idea how much I suffer from that s**t.
-
I think many people to, though they may be not conscious of it.:)
-
For some unknown reason I am currently suffering from low everything.
-
No. But it looks very painful to me when I see someone with it
-
I am sorry does it show?
-
No. Au contraire mon ami, au contraire.
-
I know I do, it goes as far as feeling badly when no one comments on AB or doesn't give you points when you try to thoughtfully answer their questions.
-
"Err, excuse me, are you talking to me? Are you sure you want to talk to me? Is it ok if I bow this low? I can go lower if that is what you want. Do your shoes need polishing?"
-
Nah I'm all good with that kind of thing.
-
I lived many years with low self esteem. It wasn't until I reached the bottom... living with a man who talked to me like I was nothing and working at a job where everyone dumped their work on me that I woke up and realized nothing was going to change unless I made it change. It's been almost 3 years since that day and every day that passes is a blessing for me because it's a new day in which I wake up and tell myself that I am a beautiful, friendly, smart, lovable woman. Since that day I have left the job and the ex, found the love of my life, moved to Europe and am in the process of learning about art and society and languages. I have a renewed sense of self and it is powerful. :)
-
Right now i fell a low self worth my spouce cheated and i feel unatractive and un loveable!
-
not at this point in my life. No.
-
Nope. I used to growing up since I didn't feel like I was up to scratch with things, but as life goes on, you realize that if you humble yourself and choose to keep learning, low self-esteem starts to vanish.
-
yes, and I not worthy to answer your question :))
-
Sometimes. I am a bit of a roller-coaster emotionally, when things are going well, I feel like a mini-god... When things are all sliding and mounting up on my shoulders I feel useless...
-
No, I don't think it. I know so. It's something I work at all the time, trying to find and keep my self-worth. And trying to be more humble and think that not everyone is looking at me or concerned about me, it's not always about me and my troubles:-(
-
Nah... I know my self-worth, I have my self-respect and I keep that topped up nicely, and I can't bear it when people don't respect themselves, others or me. Once upon a time, when I was bullied and beaten, then I had no self-esteem whatsoever. But now... I challenge anyone to put me down! grrr.. I do get days when I'm on the edge on sanity - as some of you may have noticed! - but I come back in one piece to fight another day. Thank god for humour and good friends, is all I can say! :)
-
Yes I do have low self-esteem, but not so much that I'd stay in an abusive relationship. As long as I have people who can back me up, I'll be alright.
-
I use to have so low cause I know I'm weird. But maybe not so low now since I'm kinda happy now for many things I do :D
-
In some parts of my life yes others I am ok.
-
I know I have low self esteem. I've over weight. I've got emotional problems. Everything that happens to me hurts.I think it's always me if my boss yells at me, or if a customer is rude to me or when my bf dumped me. Usually because I don't feel like I'm good enough or because I'm over weight. I've learned that it's not always me and I shouldn't be so hard on my self and things happen for a reason and all that stuff, but it still gets to my self esteem and it gets lower and lower.
-
I know I know I do because I see it in my posture. My friends catch me looking in mirrors and stuff like when we are at the mall and they call me vain but they don't know I'm checking to see if I've corrected my "duck under the crowd unnoticed" stance.
-
No, not so much. But it has been a loooong journey! (that continues..)
-
yes sometimes i do have .... i don't want it to destroy my relationship and i'm working on it... by the way .. when i am with a group of people i just keep quiet and i don't speak tell someone talk to me ... is that low self esteem????
-
moi!?
-
If I don't have enough sugar and enough sleep, yes. But that is really a chemical imbalance (hypoglycemia) But while it is happening, I really actually do feel worthless and disgusting. Body Dysmorphia caused by hypoglycemia. I used to have it much worse when my estrogen levels were off balance. But since I've gotten that fixed I am much better.
-
what i think doesn't matter
-
I don't think. I know I have low self-esteem.
-
yes... thnks to my mother.
-
yes
-
yup... alcy parents and mild aspergers saw to that. then found out father of my 3 beautiful kids watches porn for fun. so feel like poo. think it's a bit to escape once you've got it. but you can manage it and avoid complete nobbers
-
I am confused about my self concept so I don't know whether my self esteem is high or low.
-
Why did you have to ask ME THAT!
-
well i would say in the middle, because lots of people talks about me, doesnt want to be my friend,and it lowers me. but when it comes to doing right and wrong, and i always follow by doing whats right. When am pulled down by people, it hurts but i will get back up, eventually.
-
NO! I don't want to sound arrogant because I know that there are things that are "wrong" with me, but I have a very healthy self-esteem. I know what I have going for me and against me, more importantly I know that I only have one life to live so why waste it being miserable with myself. Take it or leave it I am who I am.
-
Everyone that knows me, knows I am confident. However, there are always some areas that we feel self conscious about--whether it has to do with your weight, height, hair, eyes, etc. Dwelling on those things that we don't like about ourselves can lead to low self-esteem. So, yeah...at times, I have moments of having low self-esteem.
-
Yes. I am tormented by it. I read self-help books and go to therapy. Sometimes it is worse, other times it's better. At times, I feel like a stranger in my own skin. It is terrifying.
-
No, if anything, I have an inflated ego and sense of self esteem.
-
i don't think i do....i know i do
-
Oh yeah... as low as it gets.
-
I don't think so I know so. The funny thing is I don't have a problem accepting that my family and my friends love me it's just when iot comes to romantic love that I have a difficult time believing someone when they tell me they love me because it is hard to believe that out of the hunderd or so girls/women I have had a romantic interest in my whole entire life who spurned my feelings because most of them were too nice to be honest and truthful and tell me it's cause i'm not good looking enough for them that one actually has been able to look past the outer shell and fall inlove with the me on the inside.
-
Yes I have low self esteem I feel like no one respects me my time or anything.I dress terrible and I always am scraping money.I feel I am pretty but I never have enough to go to the next level.I am praying and tithing for a change to happen in my life.
-
No, if I did, then surely the negativity that sometimes occurs on this site would have chased me away a long time ago.
-
everyone does
-
No but I used to and it feels I feel great now. I can do things that I used to not believe that I could. Low self esteem is like a disease and should be worked out to better your life.
-
Yes...
-
I used to have low self esteem but I started learning some things to help me get rid of it. The best course that got my self esteem cured in only 4 days was at: http://www.nicholasfinnegan.com/ I think self esteem is very important because it helps you succeed in alot of other areas of your life too. If you don't feel good about yourself and think you can succeed it's going to be harder to live through life happily. I don't think anyone should put up with having low self esteem, and I think if you have to question your self esteem levels you may just have low self esteem.
-
No. My self esteem is just fine.
-
I like myself when I do good and don't like myself when I screw up. So I think I'm pretty normal, average and typical. :)
-
I'm not the highest of esteem, but it usually just pushes me to be better, or i just act like i don't until i forget about it. So its low, but it helps for me at least
-
Honestly I do or rather had. But I'm getting better. Everyday I grow more confident in different areas of my life. When I was a kid, I was made fun of (being the big girl in class) and I always thought low of myself. In high school I became invisible and tried to hide from everyone. I didn't even want to go to college because of what I thought people would think about me. But you know what, who gives a hoot what people think. I've grown to love myself, my body. With the help of family, friends, and an adoring man I've figured out that I'm beautiful and smart. If someone doesn't like me, it's their loss. : )
-
Yes and No. Depends how I feel. I can wake up on top of the world, but another I want to die.
-
I think your self esteem is level of value you have placed upon yourself. If you believe that you are valuable and you are worth to have happiness and to feel good about yourself then you have high self esteem. Generally if you have to ask yourself if you have low self esteem then you probably do :-S When I had low self esteem in the past I knew I had low self esteem because I kept relying on other people to make me feel good about myself. To have good self esteem is to be your own best friend and support yourself. There are many ways you can build your self esteem. The most powerful course I've found is at: http://www.nicholasfinnegan.com/ This guy shows you not only how to beat low self esteem, but create more confidence, happiness and success. I've used the course myself and can truly say it changed my life!!
-
No.
-
i used to. it was really bad. like crying myself to sleep at night and all that jazz... but then one day i woke up and decided i really didnt care what the world thought of me and i started loving me for who i am and wow was that a confidence boost!
-
Yes & no
-
I think I do. I also have an inferiority complex. I think they are related.
-
I battle with it constantly.
-
For the most part, No. However, I have had occasionally in the past and sometimes doubt my abilities. It happens, but doesn't last long. FEAR / not believing in oneself. It can be crippling. But I've learned so much and know to just KEEP IN ACTION in my life, live in the present and bash that negative voice if ever it creeps around the corner ;)
-
I don't think so. I'm very much secured with myself.
-
I used to have really low self-esteem, but my bf helped me with it... now it's just a thing that bothers me, but not as much! :D
-
sometime low sometime high..
-
heck no
-
Meh, I don't really have much of one. I think I'm stupid, and ugly, but it's just been what I'm told. I guess... I just get told stuff alot, and once your told it for a while, you believe it, and trust me, even if you have it, it still hurts when other people take a hit on your self esteem. And I'm 13, just turned in October. So, my life is pretty much in a downward spiral, I hope I have some self esteem soon, I hope really hard I do. :] ♥ If that helped at all.
