This is going to sound weird, but here goes: When I walk into a store or restaurant or even at my desk at work, I start to feel uncomfortable. I feel a little nervous and look around and wonder how I'm perceived by others. I wonder how my expression looks. Do I look angry, sad, happy, etc. I guess this might stem from my having a low self-esteem. I think I'm a decent looking person, but sometimes when I look at photos of myself I think oh gosh I'm not the most photogenic person in the world and that makes me feels self-conscious. I have a hard time just letting go, getting lost in the moment, concentrate on the task at hand, and not worrying what others think of me. How can I do this? How can I raise my self-esteem so I can be confident? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.
