I get incredibally depressed, because I'm very hard on myself. I never think that I am good enough for someone or good enough to have certain things. For example. I'm a musician and if I make one little mistake or finsih a recording than I want to go back and perfect it again. I beat myself up over nothing really, just because I don't feel deserving of acceptance or love if you want to call it that. I just want to know if there is a name for it and if I can stop thinking this way.

One possibility is bipolar disorder. A symptom is unrealistic beliefs in one's abilities and powers. Another symptom is an inflated self-esteem or feeling of grandiosity.
Make an appointment to see your family physician and describe what you're feeling and how long it's been going on. Ask for a recommendation for a psychiatrist or an LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker). He can't prescribe meds, but there are some who have quite a bit of experience dealing with bipolars. If he feels you need meds, he can refer you to a psychiatrist. After interviewing both to see which offers you the help you need, you can make an appointment for ongoing care.
Normally I would say a psychiatrist outright, but with today's health insurance crisis, not everyone has mental health coverage. The LCSW would cost less in terms of fees. They're an option that not many people know about.

Tares will improve alongside with the solid seed, (the toddlers of the dominion - Matt.13:38, Acts.17:29, Gal.3:26, the wheat - Matt.13:30) to the end. Tares are those Jesus will profess He in no way knew (Matt.7:23, Lk.13:17); they are Gentiles (a million Thess.4:5, Eph.2:12), devil’s toddlers (playstation .fifty 8:3, Jn.8:37-40 seven, Jn.3:8-10, Jn.3:12, Matt.13:38, Re.2:9).

It is called borderline personality disorder. Sorry to disappoint everyone, but low self esteem is not a medical condition. I myself suffer from a more severe case. Nothing will make it stop, but with the proper medication, it can be controlled. Most of the time you will feel great, but you will have a bad day every now and again.

Wow, that is a perfect description of how I feel. I know that it is low/NO self esteem and I am an intelligent person but knowing it doesn't really seem to help overcome it . There is no childhood reason for it ; I come from a loving family but there does appear to be hereditary issues. My grandmother, mother, and now my daughter which greatly disturbs me because she has everything going for her (of course thats what everyone has told me my entire life). I think we need LIFE coaches !

Low self esteem. Imagine the wonderful person you want to be. Trust me, I just passed a college maths class top of class.

I think that you are suffering from what is called a low self esteem, but I am not a psychologist so I could be wrong

you are depressed and sound like you are a perfectionist. No one is perfect and imperfections are what make people who they are. you have to accept yourself for who you are. you should see your doctor for medication for depression. there are meds out that will enhance your sense of well-being and stop your depressing thoughts so you can focus on your music and career.

You are a perfectionist, first of all...you have no disorder...you are just one of those people who can sometimes be your own worst enemy...maybe a bit of ego problem...some people are just very humble...and it doesn't always mean you have a 'mental' problem..maybe just part of your personality.....however...there are people who have what used to be known as an inferiority complex...but that doesn't sound like you,...really..

It could be any of the clinical depression subtypes. See someone about it, get diagnosed. It's hard to get better on your own/.
