All of my life I have been shy and introverted but up until a few years ago I also had confidence and some measure of self-esteem. For most of the past three decades of my life I had a significant hormone imbalance that somehow went undetected. Hormone therapy is underrated, folks. NO matter how healthy and overall good you feel, find an endocrinologist and find out where you hormone levels are. When I found the brain tumor caused by unbalanced hormones and got them regulated, a new awareness entered my life. Unfortunately, some residual side effects remain that I have almost been convinced are permanent, including everything listed in this video. Self-esteem is impossible to rebuild alone. The difficulty is underlying social inadequacies that prevent me from expanding a support network of trusty, reliable friends and co-workers. This is a great video but the antecdotes to these issues do not come easy. I try to be optimistic but it's still peaks and valleys. Hearing success stories and tried-and-true methodologies is encouraging and fraustrating at the same time. When do I get to look back on videos like this and say that they no longer reflect who I am?

for people like me who deals with very low self esteem i don't usually procrastinate mostly i complete my work on time but i do negative talk about myself a lot and blame myself and always feel accountable for every bad thing that happens around me ( i still feel like this) and to people around me and yeah my chest gets heavy whenever someone is complements me. For a brief period it feels nice to be complemented ofcourse who won't but then after some time it all hits like a truck, the feeling of degrading, self conscious, the feeling of being at the bottom and people looking down on you. its very overwhelming and that drives me to believe that i am not capable of doing anything ( actually i don't believe i know i am useless piece of shit saying that i believe myself to be of not capable would be overly an understatement )

i once was at the point where id actually believe all the things this video says. Not liking yourself doesnt matter to live, ''self esteem'' doesnt exist, live in solitude, stop crying, you dont have a problem, just keep living. All those who are struggling dont suffer the right way, stop all your trying, sit on a chair in a silent room and let your world fall apart, what does it matter! Every therapist only makes it worse, dont believe them, the'll try to bind you in this mindstate until your life is over, you have no problem. Even if its being ugly or if youre crippled from down the neck, what does it matter! Become hard!

My dad Herb put it into my head from a young age, that you cannot do what you want in life, you have to do what you don't want, as in work for a living, whether you like it or not, and this is why I was never able to go to college. Herb also said to forget your dreams like going into business or setting goals for yourself, because nothing would ever work out for you. Herb also hated me and thought I was a bad kid, because when I was 3 and 4 years old, I repeatedly hit my sister Jane. Old Herb caused me a lifetime of self-esteem problems and mom Betty was no picnic either.

The procrastination is not necessarily driven by giving yourself an excuse for a failed task/poor performance. It can also be from not knowing exactly how to do something. Because you're a perfectionist you fail to start on the task because you are scared you can't do it to your standards - because you don't know how to do it.
Also, another habit of low self esteem that hasn't been discussed is acting out. Choosing a self destructive activity because for that brief moment you feel good about yourself, even though later you will be wracked by guilt.

The self-esteem movement just never seems to die. Just like the over-abundance of psychologists with nothing better to do than over-diagnose or indirectly stimulating people to self-diagnose. As far as I'm concerned, this video helps no one, and depresses probably a majority of people who should instead be motivated by not thinking of themselves in the form of labels, which is by the way a form dehumanization. This isn't helping anyone, let people learn to figure themselves out on their own and they will probably be better off for it.

all that habits, unfortunately I have it. even as I'm writing this, the habits is there. It's not that I'm surrounded by bad parents nor sibling or even bad friend. it's not that all of them is really success in their life for me to have low self esteem when meeting them. It's just that the feeling of low self esteem is there and when I want to enter something new to challenge myself, all the points in the video above pop up in my mind.

Ive been like that over 3 years now. But the only thing I want to say is, sometimes its not because something bad happened. Its not always bc your family is abusive nor toxic friends etc. Sometimes its because you feel that way: / and it seems like there is no particular reason and thats okay. Sometimes we just overthink and that can make our self esteem drop(At least I think so)

everyone whining here in the comments, you need to read nietzsche, the only one who got it right. Read thus spoke zarathustra, it wont save you from suffering, nothing will, only becoming hard will. But he''ll make you aware of what a disgusting creature you are and you'll content with it, because it simply doesnt matter!

Too much emphasis on strangers opinions being more important than ones own ego.
When in fact the only ego in the only world is yours in your own world. No other.
Why care what strangers think? They think what they want and change when it suits them.
What's that to you?
Your choice.

Well the thing about isolating your self is that I want to escape that awkward felling I call the out of place feeling because every one I know is littarly the top of the class and people that seems to me like if they are on a different level so I stay away

I suppose I have always been like this (all points) but even more so from the most recent life events. It's like a switch in the dark of my brain that I'm reaching for, yet can't find it. The bulb turns on only a few days a month and back to dark the rest.

all these points are freakishly nuanced. i do almost all of them very frequently, except for pleasing people and overworking, and ive never had low self esteem problems. for some it's a conscious decision to live like that because they feel at peace.

At first I thought this vid would just be very vague topics like how people procrastinate and then it got into more heavier topics that described me perfectly when I didnt even know myself like isolation and the inability to accept compliments

I was researching an article about low self esteem but it was hard to understand so I came here to get a better understanding. I had no idea how much I relate to this, almost shocking. But thanks for the information, it was helpful.

My biggest flaw is my enormously huge lack of self worth and self love and self esteem! I understand that I got this way over many years and therefore it will take many years to fix it, but that in itself feels daunting & out of reach

I once did have trouble with self-worth. It lead me to suffer with Major depressive disorder - or at least, severe depression.
Every one of these signs (except perfectionism) resonated with my experience of low self-esteem.

Descibes me to a T. Ill admit, I am working to climb out of this dark hole of low self-esteem but genetic limitations make it difficult. Unfortunately, you cant beat genetics.

think I checked all the boxes, but I'm really not sure if it's low self esteem vs a combination of being lazy and generally not liking people. Food for thought.

I don't know if it's low self esteem/worth or minority stresses from being transgender I often feel like I'm not deserving of love and happiness or respect.
