Answer #1

Well, I used to have very low self-esteem also. But I have a few words of advice for you, and I hope it helps:

  1. Make a list of all the things you like about yourself. Including personality, looks, etc. And look over this list everyday. This will help you feel better about yourself.
  2. Surround yourself with friends and family that are supportive and like you for who you are. You would be suprised on how many people try to become friends with the “cool” people just to fit in, but it ruins their self-esteem on the inside. If you are able to find friends who like you for who you are, you begin to feel better on who you really are.
  3. NEVER compare yourself to other people, this never helps anyone.
  4. Get involved in activities and things that you enjoy. When you do things you enjoy, you begin to feel happy, and when you are happy you don’t worry so much and be who you are. This usually helps you feel better about who you really are.
  5. Make a list of your past successes. Like if you won some sort of trophy or succeeded in something different; this always helps with self confidence. Well, I really hope that this helps. Just remember that you ARE worth something and keep in mind that people would be lucky to be friends with you.
