Have you ever had a low Self Esteem?

Hi blueAngelRS! Listen to your husband, he is telling you the truth. He has been there for you and he knows you well. And from what I have learned about you from all the discussions made and posted, you are a beautiful, caring, loving and sensitive person. Keep it up and believe in yourself. Love yourself more my dear friend! Take care and have a nice day!

I suppose that, your parents blamed you often, when you was a little child. AM I right?

well, i have experienced that before as well in the past... but now not anymore... i have learnt to accept myself as i am and i know that i am good because i am created by God according to His image... so i don't care about what pther people say about me anymore... and it makes myself a happier person as well...

yeah its true..reaassurances from loved ones make us believe in ourselves again especially on the physical thing..

I think i used to have low self-esteem also.. i was too shy.. i came from a broken family and i think i was criticized by family often when i was younger. i was also a stubborn child but during childhood i felt that i have to please everybody in order to be liked.. Now as i mature i came to accept myself as i am. i now enjoy being myself and i know that there are people who loved me as i am. i also do the things i wanted to do, i follow my heart, i follow my dreams. i am a christian so i asked help from God to mold me into a person He wants me to become. My faith has helped me to develop myself and combat low self-esteem.

I had low self-esteem for awhile when I was in middle school. My parents were in the middle of their divorce and we didn't have as many clothes and stuff as we used to and I got made fun of. I think that is what has made me a strong person today though. I learned from other people's experiences that everyone gets teased. And usually the person that is teasing you is making up for something they are lacking. after that i just didn't let it get to me and by the time I got to the end of middle school, all was well and the kids were making fun of someone else. That's another thing, there will always be bullies. It's just something that just isn't going away. Love yourself and don't worry about what other people say about you..hope it helps.

Well Sweetie I did have until 3 years ago when I met the wonderful Man I am seeing now My Ex Husband used to call me fat, and that I was not worth looking at most of the time and that my Body was deformed from Child Birth and who would like to see that I used to believe him and also like you I had bad experience in my Childhood I can still get it very bad at times but not as bad as I used to Love and Hugs

Awwww BlueAngel dont ever put yourself down. I think your a very caring person. I think thats great your hubby tells you that. Well mine used to!LOL But I guess lately he has become caught up in work. You guys sound so sweet. Stay happy with each other. And Big hugs to you!

hi blueangel. i don't have to know what you look like to know that you are beautiful. by reading your post and comments i already know that you are beautiful person. never measure your self worth or beautiful by someone else standards. see that in yourself and everyone else will see it too

Yes I have low self esteem and reailze this about myself . I wish I could change it as I know this about myself but different things that happened as a child always come back to me and make me feel bad about myself again . I don't believe I will ever be able to get over this fully but believe that because of this I can see it in others and can try my best to make them realize they are beautiful individuals who have so much going for them in life .

Anyone who knows me knows my self is esteem is hmmm ... well ... not the greatest! I constantly pick myself apart about my looks, even though I get a lot of compliments from people! I think my biggest self esteem problem is my extra skin from having my daughter last summer. Holy man did I ever get HUGE while I was pregnant with her. I was SO happy when the Doc induced me early, because honestly I think my skin had reached the point where it couldn't stretch anymore ... even my innie belly button became an outie lol! Since having her though, and getting married I have noticed that my self esteem has gotten better because I know deep down I am a good wife and mother! I think love can change a self esteem and I definitly give it, and get it in return. It also helps to have great friends too and when I say that you and your hubby are the first two friends that pop into my head! Love & Hugzz!

I do have low self Esteem right now. I feel so fat at time and I hate that. I have had 5 kids but I still dont like the way my body looks. It actually makes me very sick.

i used to. i used to think i was useless for everyone, and had no goal in life. :D i had that feeling until last year. p.s i'm 20 already.

Nothing is worse than being your own judge as nothing is easier than to blame one self for the things going wrong. Hold your head high girl, you cannot satisfy everybody, but i am sure that there is people around you, that loves you for eing just who you are. :) Greetings.

ya some times.... but can get over it...

Hi BlueAngelRS, Many people have low self esteem and it isn't something that we can get over easily. We are all special though, and that's something we have to remember. Blessings.
