i think your question is an excellent one. for me its a chemical I'mbalance and luckily for me i have friends and family who urge me to seek help. what my problem has always been is not being the person i should be.i felt like a failure as compared to my peers. but what had to realize is that everyone is special and unique. and you as an individual have to take a journey inside one self and realize that. try to think about the good and don't focus on the negative. talk to someone, make a change. i did and im learning how to love me.  Mary J Blige said it the best if you don't love yourself how can you love anyone else.

i think that everyone is a loser in their own way because we all do things that we are not proud of and we all act really stupid sometimes. and speaking for myself i know i am because i make a fool out of myself a lot and i just act stupid when i have had to much sugar or something. and don't lie everyone u all know that u do the same thing no matter how mature u r u still like to have fun and act like a fool sometimes. u just have to let the inner child free sometimes cuz if u don't ull just be a boring old (bad word).lol

id run back in a heartbeat. people these days dont care about anyone but theirselves. the most important part of society is failing fast,the family. forget about how much harder it is to live now. its the morals and mindset of people that's scary.

You have low self-esteem and no self-respect.  If you don't like yourself, it doesn't matter how someone else treats you.  \n\nFigure out what's worthwhile in yourself - and there is lots - and when you do, you won't let dirtbags take advantage of you anymore.

its something we wont ever understand. its like they look in the mirror and see something else looking back at them thats not what the rest of the world sees.  "distorted self image"  They have to have intensive therapy to get past it and I think for the most part they are never over it completely.  People are always the hardest on themselves

Some people get insecure or fearful around others who are not like they are. They attack the one who is different, to help them feel better about themselves and their decisions (which actually probably means they are not secure in their own decision or choice).

Probably because being themselves seems to dull. They probably think that more people will like them if they make their lives seem more exciting and they don't have high enough self-esteem to realize that people are more likely to want to be friends with who they really are rather than whatever fake persona they invent for themselves.

The world has become more cynical, because everyone is giving up.  People just don't care anymore, and it's just easier to be negative and view everything as crap then to force a positive and find that silver lining around that very dark cloud.  Things are better than we think, but we've become lazy and don't have the energy to find out how.

Nothing, if you want to stay that way, certainly...\n\nI am hateful myself and cannot imagine why people still want to be around me but I have come to the conclusion that they are all gluttons for punishment or they just figure one day I will actually snap and they all want to be around to see that... \n\n;)

Yes, because if they were always heavy and knowing what it was like to be teased and picked on, then becoming skinny and seeing the difference in the way people treat you. Yes there personality will change for the better happy and not sad all the time, thinking better about yourself. Your outlook on life will change along with it. But just remember you are the same person you just improved your life.

Beacuse so many people cannot see their own faults.  They see themselfs entirely differant from who they really are.  Reality is\nnot  a nice thing,  it is sometimes, a slap in the face.

I think people with low self esteem blame entertainment on their actions. They may have or get ideas to edge them on with their actions. Those are really lonely people and they are either mentally unstable, or they crave attention. And what's getting more attention now days than any other form of moral principals? Negativity. Maybe their personalities can't distinguish the difference between a false sense of reality and reality. Keep in mind, the whole world is suffering, so all we can do is pray for them.\nThe Graphologist

Because all people not just married people have become so self centered and self absorbed they believe it's their RIGHT to do whatever makes THEM feel good regardless of the consequences to them or others.  People are so cavalier about marriage and sex anymore.  Nothing is more important to people than their own twisted wants and desires.

It took me 35 years to learn this one.  One's own perception of self is very powerful and it's hard to understand when others don't see you the same way.  The reality is that 99.99% of people don't know what's in your head whether you feel good or bad about yourself.  You need to learn to see what others see in you.  Yeah, they could be yankin' your chain hoping to pull you out of your funk, or they could be genuinely honest about what they see.  It won't matter until you get over yourself, until your own perception goes beyond "fat and ugly".

They become a new person. If the change was for the worst, then they will have a bad personality. If they change for the good, then it will be good.

becasue some people may try to just please everybody and try to fit in with others, \nit's obvious that they are insecure and not comfortable being theirselves

because they aren't contented in themselves.
