Low self-esteem is not a mental disorder, but a psychological and common problem.
Its main feature is an unjustifiably low assessment of oneself, one’s abilities and achievements.
Signs of low self-esteem
Fear of not meeting someone's expectations, desire to please everyone; unreasonable feelings of guilt; pessimism and melancholy; hostility and unreasonable defensiveness towards others.
A person with low self-esteem constantly compares himself to others - and not in his favor.
Person has difficulty making decisions, reacts extremely painfully to criticism, expects approval and praise from others, but can hardly rely on positive feedback.
What is the cause of low self-esteem
Low self-esteem can be caused by several factors.
Including negative childhood memories, critical parents, insults or neglect from others, failures and/or failures in the past.
What's Hidden Behind Low Self-Esteem
Low self-esteem reduces your ability to love and understand others.
Modern psychologists have come to the conclusion that a person cannot love another if he himself does not have a healthy sense of self-love.
The truth of love coming from us and addressed to us is directly related to our attitude towards ourselves.
How do people with high self-esteem behave
With inflated self-esteem, an individual tends to overestimate his capabilities and, accordingly, has an increased level of aspirations.
Person is self-confident, takes on the most difficult cases, even beyond his or her real capabilities, is categorical in his or her assessments and stubborn as a donkey in his or her statements.
