My Low Self Esteem Signs

by Anon

My list of low self esteem signs looks like this:

- I constantly compare myself to others

- I always believe I make the wrong decisions

- I feel stressed talking to others believing they will see something wrong with me or they won't like me (y throat tenses and I become aware of my own voice)

- When someone walks past in the street and laughs I believe they are laughing at me

- I worry about people seeing me make mistakes

- I am very suspicious when people say nice things to me

- I believe my girlfriend is lying when she says she loves me (or I find fault with it)

- I try to be a nice person to improve myself and offset other flaws

- I always criticise myself and others

- Feel like I am going mad and am disconnected from my feelings

- I even can't see why my pets like me


I'm very confused.

A New Way of Seeing Self-Esteem?

Steve here, and for the last few years (since Oct 2012, actually) I've been seeing (and thinking about) low self-esteem in a different way. Not as a problem to fix, but as feedback to notice (and nothing more). That's right: nothing to fix, everything to notice. And all this became obvious to me after being introduced to the Three Principles behind life (in Oct 2012).

I created a free 1-page Self-Esteem Guide that explains more, anyway. You can read about it here (NO EMAIL REQUIRED) - SMNash.com/self-esteem-guide/

Thank you - Steve
