Hi guys i suffer from super lowself-esteem. .that has hampered my physcial health too…do u love urself …i hate myself …
For a long time I had low self esteem especially before diagnosis. These days I try not to stress about such things and that helps. First step is just relaxing and being yourself. We are all valuable people and those who tell you otherwise aren’t worthwhile spending time with.
I have lower self-esteem now, but my previous sense of confidence came from delusions about myself so I think it will just take time to build up a more natural sense of self-worth.
Don’t hate yourself @far_cry0, you are one of the nicest posters on here. You always have something positive to say to people. Thats a rare quality and you should be proud of it.
Low self esteem is a requirement for being schizophrenic. If you don’t have low-esteem, they revoke your membership card and kick you out of the club.
Why do you hate yourself?
We’ve all made mistakes in the past, so instead of constantly beating ourselves up over them we need only to forgive ourselves.
I think that’s a good starting point to raising our self-esteem.
Cuz i cant do anything…neither work nor from any relation …bad luck to me…
Fight with your illness and it gives you power,
I guess you are wrong. You can do many things. You can enjoy nature, you can encourage people on this forum with your kind words, you can play games, you can speak English, you can laugh at a joke, you can cry your heart out, you can feel many emotions.
You are a complete human being, @far_cry0 !!
But you lack self-esteem… Please work with a psychologist on this matter !
Andrey i will try …but i have to convince my brother and sister …they are like my credit card for my life in the future …i am too poor…
I am really sorry. I wish I could help but I am poor too…
Please convince your siblings to send you some money for psychologist. Tell them it’s very important !!
Had low self esteem also, now its better. The fastest and easiest way to improve it is physical activity. You wouldnt believe how your physical capacities and psychological form depends on each other. Healthy mind can be only in healthy body. There is a lot of evidance that physical activity relieves streess, anxiety, and increases endorphins and other hormones that afects your mind positively. It would be best start point in improving your self esteem. Good luck.
I’m much better tbh … my self - esteem was worse before diagnosis due to psychological effects of bullying that took place in primary and secondary school (age 4-16) … it took a long time to even start the recovery process on that. And then I got diagnosed with schizophrenia and after that diagnosis my world just started to get better… I cannot stress how important it is to take meds.
Granted the diagnosis changed but the meds are quite similar with bipolar. I’m a lot happier , and I am not that over sensitive girl anymore.
Hey my buddy andrey …my parents can afford to see a psychologist for me…as far as they live … if they left this earth i am going to have a lot of problem …as ur advice is concerned i am determined to see psychologist soon…i will inform u all the things about counselling…
I am soon sitting for my bachelor exam …lets see.
Take care …love to u and ur family …
I have a very low self steem too…
Try to see a psychologist …people says life is beautiful … try to admire it @Indecisive …
What is your field of study? What do you have to prepare for the exam?
I hope you will love ️ yourself far_cry.
I believe you are loved by many on forum who like reading your posts and who like seeing you around and who love or like you.
I love myself .
I do want to improve my physical appearance since I met my boyfriend.
I may do so by wearing makeup on many days of the week ,exercise,dressing and grooming,good hygiene etc
I do not work either and am going to apply forbpension again.
I hope to get pension and volunteer work for meals on wheels or similar .
I do not think if you are loveable or not should be decided based upon if you work or not .
There’s so much more to it and to who and all someone is.
Im not sure if i got good self esteem or whatever, but everytime i stopped taking my meds, I went EMO x 10
The weird voices would say stuff that put me down.
I need to boost my others-esteem.
