News of Self Esteem

well, i really have bad self-esteem issues. I REALLY want other kids at school to like me, who doesn't? but sometimes i feel so depressed and think that I have no friends and the friends I do have don't acutally like me. whenever somebody is making fun of me or doing something rude to me, i just let them keep doing it or laugh instead of standing up for myself, because i dont wanna seem ...

:roll: I am obsessed and worried that this person doesn't really like me – or that I'm not good enough for her to have me for a friend. We are both women in late 40s. This woman invited me to her wedding, has cocktails with me from time to time, swaps e-mails with me and has invited me three times to eat with her and her ...

I am 15 years old and for five years now I have been depressed. A couple of years ago I could break down anywhere and my parents couldn't understand what was wrong with me. So they made me talk with some women at school but that didn't help at all.
Now I have learned to hide it cause I don't want people to know how I feel. I feel pathetic when I want to die ...

This is maybe my 6th post on this site, but...seems I have alot of problems, this being one. -deep breath- I'm fat....Yes, I know. It's a common thing. I try to feel good about myself. When I look in a mirror, I see a teenaged girl who could be someone. Not too pretty, but nice to be around. I'm heavy. So? I don't look it. I'm proportioned. I just don't know why...people can't see me ...

I am in the beginning stages of finding myself and trying to move on. I am also new to this site. Reaching out for past encouraging information that has been given to those who have gone thru the same thing as I. I am a confident person with a great outlook on life. I just never thought the divorce process could be so long...... and painful. :lol: ...

rock bottom in terms of self confidence.... and constant fear of being judged. is it really just me, coz in about 10 days, i have fought with 3 peple i consider my close friends.. am i that vulnerable or is it just coincidence.

For a while now I have felt like I have just been lost. I don’t know what to do or where to go. I have been thrown so much crap in my life. I really don’t know how I am still here. I feel so sad, so lonely; my heart always cries out of pain. I feel insecure, worthless, and hopeless. I have a big family with lots aunties and uncles. But no love, no ...

I guess I'll just start off by telling you what bothers me.. I have never really believed in myself. I have so much self doubt that it tends to consume my life. Before most situations begin, I often times tell myself that I am going to fail at something. I am in college and have problems with tests because I get so worked up over them and tell myself I'm going to do bad before ...

I talk way to much. My whole life people have been annoyed of my excessive talking. Every single day when I'm in a conversation I talk way too much and kill it. But there's only one way to avoid that, not talk, but it's not as easy for me as it is for some people. Everyday I wake up and say, "I won't say a word to anyone." But, I always fail. The thing is, ...
