you are who you are..and you can't be everyone else..accept yourself for who you are..and remember that you're not the only one that feels shy when they walk down the street..etc...and just love yourself..so that others can love you too..and believe in yourself..and say to yourself..if i dont love my self..noone will love me...and if they don't love me..who cares...i love myself.

If you worry a lot about what other people think, or worry what people will think about you, you have low self esteem.\nIf you feel the need to criticize others (like what they wear or how they look) you have low self esteem.\n\nIf you are mainly concerned with what you think, and what you like to do, that's a signal of higher self esteem.\n\nTo improve your self esteem, take yoga.

How old are you?  Are you having or did you have a terrible childhood?  Were you berated, put down by your parents or by people around you when you were a child?\n\nMore often than not, how we feel about ourselves is a result on how we were treated by those around us during our developmental years (toddler to the teenage years).  A poor self image of ourselves is learned.  If as a younger person, nobody ever told you that you were beautiful/good looking and always told you that you were stupid, chances are you're going to believe them.  I think that that's where you are now.\n\nGrowing up, my mom hardly had anything nice to say to me... My hair was too long/too short, I was too skinny, I was getting too tanned, etc.  She even embarrassed me once during dinner when my uncle and his family were over... about my pimples!  For a while there, I was always conscience of my skin.  My father passed away when I was just 19.  He was the only one that ever said anything nice to me.  I felt the same way you're feeling about yourself.. ugly, stupid, etc.\n\nSo, think back on how you may have been affected by those around you.  Like I said, chances are is that you weren't brought up in a positive atmosphere.  You have to make yourself KNOW that what was said or was told to you about you were wrong... That you are a beautiful person, both inside and out, as well as intelligent and fun to be around!\n\nBest to you in eventually knowing that you're not ugly, stupid and ubearable.

Have a better opinion of urself and accept as u are, God made every one perfect, its only when we compare with others we feel deficient and feel worthless about ourselves. Better is a relative word and a person whom you feel is better than you may be much worse to you in many aspects. You are a precious gift of life and its better to be oneself than to seek being 'better'and lose out on your 'best'

If it is someone else that is giving you crap that is making you "allow" yourself to feel bad about yourself, tell them to stop - or remove yourself from the situation. \nOtherwise, this is something that has to come from within.\nEveryday look in the mirror and point out something that you see in yourself that you like, and OUTLOUD, acknowledge it to yourself. Same with daily accomplishments, no matter how small - tell yourself, OUTLOUD - Good job! Way to go! You rock girlfriend, Whatever. But no matter how you have lost it - or are losing it- (your self-esteem) you also are the only one to get it back. The fact that you care enough about yourself to ask for help tells me you're a great person and you're already acknowledging that you DO like yourself and care about yourself - or you wouldn't be asking. You'd just go crawl in a hole - So.........YOU ROCK GIRLFRIEND! Hold your head up and move on and don't let anyone steal your joy and you'll have so much self-esteem it'll piss everyone off!  HAHA!

you are only feeling that way because its all in your head and when you tell your self that stuff it sticks to you and brings you down....try to say good things to yourself in a mirror, starting by telling yourself that i love myself, i am a beautiful person, i am not lazy, do this every morning until you feel better, it does work, has on many people...anything that you feel about yourself go to the mirror and say the opposite and soon you will feel a change but have faith and believe in your heart and you and others will also see your change in time....

Keep a list of good things to refer to when you are feeling down - things that you have achieved or that make you happy. Be your own best friend, who reminds you of what's best about yourself. \n\nDon't stay in with the computer all the time - go out, get fresh air, smile at people, be part of your community. Also, have a proper routine for the jobs that have to be done - cleaning, self-care, paying bills, etc - you will feel better for being on top of them. You can give yourself a reward for each job completed....\n\nThink about the activities you enjoy most or are best at and plan more time for them in your life, and in ways that involve other people.\nSo if you are a good cook, cook good meals for yourself, but also volunteer to cook for a local project. If you enjoy singing, join a choir. If you feel you have no particular skills, why not take an evening class to learn a new one. \n\nExercise is good for your self-esteem as it makes you fitter and better able to cope with stress, but it has to be the right exercise for you. If you are not into team sports or the gym, consider walking, cycling, jogging or dance.\n\nImagine that you are a photographer or journalist with an assignment to record something beautiful or joyful every day. This will make you go looking for the positive things in yourself, in other people, in nature and in the world around you.\n\nBudget for a small treat each week, whether it's a magazine, a movie, a bright scarf, a new picture for your wall, a manicure, whatever you enjoy.....\n\nMake a list of ten things you would like to achieve or experience in the next few years, and start doing them! Don't get anxious about things you have not yet done - you still have them to look forward to.\n\nDon't give into negative thoughts about yourself or other people, or guilt about the past. Treat each day as a fresh chance to do some good in the world, to look for the best in other people and in yourself and to enjoy life.\n\nGood luck!

A tried and tested technique to improving self-confidence is as follows:\n\nLook in the mirror every morning and tel yourself you are beutiful, you are clever and you can achieve anything.\n\nLook in the mirror every night before bed and tell yourself that you have done your best today in everything you do and tomorrow you will do better.\n\nDo one thing each day that scares you.\n\nBe with friends that value you for who you are and remember you are a human being and as such you are special.\n\nYour family loves and values you and if you smile the world smiles with you.

I have a friend like that, what a bore! hahaha\nUsually people that are like that are incredibly insecure about themselves so they employ different methods to make themselves feel better.\nFor example: acting better than you all the time can make you start to feel like crap about yourself. It's a cumulative effect, so just ignore it and know you're the better person.\nAnd they control who you talk to because they don't want you to realize how sad and lame they are, so they control the possiblility of you making new friends and leave them.\nSo, keep your head up, ignore her, and make all the friends you want to.

Yea, I'm feeling ya on this one.  \nYou're a beautiful person inside and out and your confidence in yourself radiates and intimadates others. \nWhat do  you do?  Make these people feel comfortable and at home, get to know them, be their friend, invite them over to get to know you. When they get to know you better and you get to know them it will all work out.  Your not vain, your concerned.

Try to trust your true self, and also your friends too, you will find satisfaction, It is only because you yourself hide some part of your frankness from your friends so you feel dissatisfied.

take it with simple easy steps.  first look in a mirror.  thank about how great you really are.  you are somebody.  you are special.  there is nobody else in the whole world exactly like you.  there is something that you and only you can do to make the world better.\n\nthen go out, shop, go to school, whatever, any place where you pass people.  And SMILE.  See what happens.  Most of the time, someone will smile back.  that is the power you have to make a difrference.  anyone can do that.  you can do that.
