It's horrible isn't it?  I hate to appear like I live in a shell....but the less I know of the goverments doings, the better I feel.  So I don't follow too closely with what they do. They are all self seeking anyway.

Aparthied South Africa was not gr8 for selfesteem. Yet a majority buils it
when they are in something together...it takes self-esteem of the love-liest kind to come up with elements of NONIOLEMNCE in one's struggle against colonialism and segregation (a la Gandhi, King and Nelson Mandela). If I speak honestly, the crackdown on free speech in the USA has hurt my self-esteem more than had the apartheid regime. It hurts me to say this so much....but many Americans never understand the pschic need we have to speak our differences & minds. Most just follow government like sheep....and then we call others Nazis and fascists. I cry about this....so much for self-esteem. Shalom 7 healing to ALL

Good way of looking at it. I can agree, my self esteem is much higher when I'm more spiritually inclined than when not.

How do we measure it? Symptoms of good self-esteem can be a person
who is at peace with self and with others.  When my esteem is in God, and not in self, I fit that category.

Therapy Sunny ?
Therapy for self-esteem ? Cum on, I don't believe it. Mine (self-esteem) will be always in between.  So why worry ?

It's good that you could pull through whatever set you back as a child.

You're not in a mess, you've just made some bad choices.  Everyone does. You will work through it, because you have the ambition and esteem to achieve what you desire.

My mom says I have a lucky star. I think I was just born for greatness. But I haven't always been this way. I was a wreck as a kid.

Yes I always felt I am somebody great born to do big things but I landed up
in a mess but still I don't feel inferior for any reason.Thanks.

Did your siblings have higher esteem?  Neglect was about 1/2 of what ruined mine.

That is good.  It means that you were raised feeling like you were worth something.

I have a very high self esteem . I have always thought of myself to be
great and have absolute confidence on myself.

Sunny,
All my life I was made to feel worthless...it's wasn't therapy that healed me it was true love. You are a wonderful, kind, caring person. You have many great qualities. You should feel proud of your self.

Sunny, I was made to feel the same way as a kid..I had no self esteem or
self confidence..maybe it was being the 4th kid, and born 12 yrs after my younger sister..its been tough to overcome...

She is doing very well at telling her story. I can only imagine the struggles she's had with this.

My parents really boosted their kids self esteem. Mrs Tanga - well she will tell her own story

It does make sense.  There are areas that my esteem is higher and others that it is lower.  

posted by Afzal_Sunny7 on September 15, 2006 at 6:57 AM | link to this | reply

My self-esteem is multifaceted
In some senses it is very low but in others it is very high.  If that makes sense
