Okay well this is what is happening. The thing is that I try to talk to mom or my sister, but I just want some more advice. I have very low self esteem. I try making myself feel better, but whatever I do there is always a reason to not feel good! I pretty much have a good life, I mean I got a great family, all these things, clothes, and I like the way I look. I just wished that I was a bit more confident, speaked up, and took some risks or challenges. I wish I had more friends, a boyfriend, and just be happy and accept who I am, and the way I look at myself. Its so hard for me, because everything I think about, I never have the confidence to say "I can do it", instead I lower myself down. Sometimes I just start breaking down thoughts of what others are thinking of me. I want to have a good sophmore year at my high school, be a good president, and just love who I am! I mean pretty much confidence has to do with how you will live your life. I understand that only myself can change.

Having a boyfriend, clothes, etc. is not going to make you happy. You need to make yourself happy by doing the right things.
For example; making the right choices in life, being a good person doing good deeds, valuing yourself for who you are and not what you have.
In h.s. there are speech and debate classes that can build confidence. Also, being a volunteer in your community by helping others you also help yourself.
