Dealing with low self-esteem

[PhilixCrpt]

While growing up, I had low self esteem due to my complexion. I was able to deal with mine when I got to love and not take people's opinion or word about me to heart.
I'm very proud I overcame mine.

I discovered that people with low self esteem are easily angered because little things gets to them. I was like that until I begin to love and care for myself more. I don't let people's opinions about me define who I am. I am good just the way I am.

Remember, that human beings are actually fragile creatures. human weakness is actually not only in terms of physical, but also mental. humans have innate traits from birth, humans always face critical conditions that often lead to depression, despair, as well as taint and sinful acts. humans are destined to be in a state of lamentation. humans are destined as creatures, places of wrong and forget.

This indicates that no human is perfect on this earth. no matter how strong, great, will experience a decrease due to situations and circumstances or association. in the context of this discussion is, Dealing with low self-esteem. and I think, this is one example that I say that humans are weak creatures. and this can happen to anyone, even when we are in the lowest point in life.

And like the points Op said, a way to build high self-confidence by upholding self-respect with sheer determination. I just want to add.  as weak creatures, both physically and psychologically, humans have the opportunity to improve these weaknesses. human reason is an advantage that can be used to overcome in any case, especially for dealing with low self-esteem. at least, there is effort to be made. build positive relationships, hang out with the right people, ask questions, even discuss with someone who is over in this field.  with common sense, a person will do something to correct his weakness. so that he is free from low self-esteem.

You can feel better by committing to improve yourself in those areas that you have identified needs improvement, be it your finance, exposure, social life etc.

You are right about looking for ways to improve but how many of those with low self esteem will want to go that extra mile to improve themselves. They will rather want to stay and remain in their shells. It is worse when i see grownup men with families acting scared before others because they have lost their sense of worth. Low self esteem is a destroyer.

Few of the ways we can deal with low self esteem are

1.Is to equip Oneself With the right and useful information and skills,
 
The Holy Bible did advice that we study to show ourselves approved, that a workman that needs not to be ashamed will rightly dividing the word of truth,

  the first step is to get the right information and skills and equip ourselves with a lot of it

2.Second step Is to learn how to express ourselves with few words and a display of bold and friendly charisma by mimicking the people that we fancy their pattern of speech delivery,  it will help in shaping us to find our own pattern

3. Thirdly is to place value on oneself by setting out personal goals and achieving them ,

Succeeding in life in different fields helps to get rid of our low self-esteem because success will put you on the spotlight and you will become a beacon that people will look up to and that will increase your value in the society.

These will help to reduce your low self esteem.  Thanks

People with low self-esteem are some of the luckiest people in the world. Why? They don't have that much pride. It is pride that often makes people fail... Proverbs 16:18:

Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall.

Pride has to do with thinking of one's self in ways that are lies. Low self-esteem has to do with humility, the realization that one has little strength.

The best thing for people of low self-esteem to do is to call to God for help. God listens to all people. He will help the truly humble (low self-esteem) people to be stronger, for real.

Whoever you are, if you have low self-esteem, look at the gift God has given you that you are humble. Turn to Him with your whole heart, and He will lift you up, and He will maintain you, as long as you remain humble with Him. Consider Micah 6:8:

He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.

Low self esteem is really something we should take critical measures to eradicate from our society as it is really telling negatively on the children of this generation, low self esteem can make a child so timid and naive is not properly attended to, which will deny the child a chance to socialize and interact with friends which might have been of great help and benefit to her in one way to the other.
Low self esteem can kill the dream in a child in such away that the child won't leave up to expectation as compared to when he was to socialize and know period.

You're right, low self-esteem can be very damaging for children when they grow up, but unfortunately they experience it because of the attitude of adults towards them when they were children, how many adults prefer smart, beautiful, handsome children or from families with a good economy and ignoring poor children and so on so that they are formed into rejected individuals so that they become low self-esteem.
Parents or adults must be able to accept children or young people in all circumstances and provide support for them to develop into confident individuals.

When dealing with low self-esteem, it is important to be nice to yourself. Self-compassion is the discipline of acknowledging and embracing our defects and imperfections with tenderness and compassion rather than harsh opinion. It's not about being complacent or not wanting to grow, but about being kind to ourselves when we make errors or fall short of our goals. We may be as kind to ourselves as we would to a friend or loved one.
A relatively easy method to start practicing self-compassion is by using empowering statements such "I am worthy of love." However, it's not just about self-esteem, but also about the pressure to live up to society standards and expectations, since this may be so overpowering that it leads individuals to lose sight of who they really are and what they truly want.

First of all learn to respect yourself.  If you can't respect yourself, others won't respect you either.  Why should you consider yourself inferior to other people?  You know you are good and your lifestyle is better than other people but why should you suffer inferiority.  Enjoying inferiority is no longer a question.  If you can't respect yourself, you can't respect other people.  Seeing yourself as inferior to others is also a kind of mental problem

Of course, it is a mental problem. Actually, in the most of the cases I have seen from people who have claimed to have self-edteem problems or showed symptoms of not having a healthy self-esteem, those were people who were going to some kind of psychiatric treatment (antidepressants mostly), which would imply low self-esteem in many cases is to the cause of the problems, but actually a consequense which comes from more embedded issues (which are not so understood by people around those who suffer from anxiety or depression).

The best way to deal with it is to first try to reach out to people one can trust and talk about what one feels about one's own being and the intrusive thoughts on our worth. After building up some trust and talking about our problems, then it would be time to sell for professional help and visit a psychologist or psychiatrist. Even though mental problems and the consumption of medications of that sort is highly stigmatized, it is no excuse to allow our situation to get worse than already could be.

Just my two satoshis on this matter.

Never lose hope.
