Don't try and be somebody that you are not. It took me a long time to realise that it's okay to be me and I work on it every day. I've never felt so whole and it is nobodys influence but my own. Do things you love to do. Make new friends if the ones you have are bringing you down. Having goals is very important too. There's a saying that goes something like Happiness is having something to do, someone to love and something to look forward to. Don't let yourself say negative things in your head. Practice saying things like some people might find me interesting, some people might find me attractive and so on. Not everybody will find these things in you because that's the way life is. Get to know yourself and love yourself before you expect other people to do the same.

When I was your age (let me guess between the age of 11-15) I had low self-esteem as well. I found something I was really good at and I got lots of compliments on my achievements. I was really into art and drama. A shy kid who was into drama was a huge feat. I had to get up in front of a crowd and act. But you know what? I did great and every one told me so.
So get out there and find something you excel in. It can be anything. But find an audience and have people view what you do. It worked for me it can work for you. Hey I bet your good at this yahoo answers arent you?

Only boring people get bored.
What is it that YOU like to do? Start being more active in what it is that you like. If you don't know, go to your local college and take some classes and find what it is that makes your heart go pitter-patter...and go for it.
Try excersizing, that releases endorphins into your body and makes you feel good, plus if you feel healthy, you in turn feel good, and therefore gain confidence.
Other than that, you might want to call your nearest mental facility to find out if there is someone you can talk to. But at the same time, you have to be ready to change, and want to change yourself, and sometimes it's really hard, but it will get better once you start being who it is you are, and not caring about what other people think about you.
Good luck!

Self esteem is boosted by accomplishments. Set a goal and go for it. Break it down into daily steps. As you get things done, you will feel better about yourself.

identify one thing that you can be truly passionate about doing, be it a sport, music, art, drama, writing, etc. once you begin working on that and start getting compliments on your accomplishments, your self-esteem will rise. keep talking to people and don't give up on yourself. everyone is special in one way or another!
