Hi Browneys, Stop looking at the negative side and look for the positive, you have already stated that you have passed several obstacle's in your path, which means putting a positive attitude to your future, you will find that you are more than capable of achieving your goals in life. looking back at your achievements gives you a boost to continue. Start b y putting you goal a little lower than normal and build from there. i was once like you thinking I am no good at anything. But now I own my own prosperous company and soon to open companies around the world. Negative = Nothing, Positive = the world is at you feet.. Good Luck, David

Hi, I'm guessing you're probably a teenager? I didn't like myself much as a teenager. It gets better as you get older. I'm in my 30s now and I like myself. It took awhile to get here though. In my early 20s I read a lot of self help books. They didn't change me over night but I did learn some things that helped me. The main thing being that you should be nice to yourself. I sometimes think nasty things about myself and when I do I stop myself and try and think something positive instead. It's not easy at first, but give it a go.
Try saying positive affirmations to yourself. That is say something nice about yourself in a positive way (even if you don't believe it). Don't use negative words such as not. For instance you could say "I believe in me". Say it over and over. Write it down over and over. At first it'll feel wrong, but after a short while you'll begin to feel better about yourself.
Another tip is to learn to do something new. Accept that it will take awhile for you to pick up whatever it is (maybe a new language or karate or salsa dancing) but when you start to become good at something it helps your confidence.
I would also recommend exercise. It helps my confidence in so many different ways. Doing the actual exercise I feel powerful and strong. Then after awhile losing weight, and becoming fit..now that's fab!
Good luck. Believe in yourself. You are worth it!

I have very little self confidence, but over the past year or so I have joined a Linedancing Class and have made some wonderful new friends who have helped me realise that things are not as bad they appear and that I can achieve.
I have realised certain aims since having the encouragement of my friends that I never thought possible. Do not under-estimate yourself. Best wishes.

Absolutely! When I was young, all the confidence was literally knocked out of me by my step-parents. But, amazingly enough, in later life I am supremely confident and have achieved some modest honours.
Believe in yourself! Look at it this way: God made you, and if you are good enough for Him, you are more than good enough for anyone else, right?
Something pretty terrible has obviously triggered these feelings off but, by being brave enough to post this question, you have already started to redress the balance. Please think about this carefully, promise? I think you will find you will achieve great things, for I have the utmost confidence in your ability to do so.
Good luck. I wish you well.

oh love i know exactly how you feel!!! its one of those things that when you look back on life you rarely see the good, good memories rarely come back over and over again its always the bad memories, but what i find works really well is that i have four or five really happy memories that i keep in my heart and any time i feel low moments coming on i think of those good things, like when i first met my partner, the first time he kissed me, when i finally bought my new house or when my nieces were born etc. it really helps you just need to think what your happy memories are!!!

Alot of the time, you kind of get used to the feeling of pointlessness after a while. Chin up though, go to your doctor see if he can get you some counselling if you are really depressed.

You need to read some books on building self esteem. Everyone has rough patches. You just get past them and keep trying!!
