My sister has really low self-esteem. She always undermines her achievements and talents and thinks she is unattractive, although I try to tell her how talented and pretty she is. She is only 17. What could I do to help her get confidence and enjoy life?

And you call yourself dipstick ? I think we should take a look at your parents.

Try to focus on all the things she does well. Show her how she has gifts and should be proud of them. It takes time for a person with low esteem to feel better about herself. She really has to work on this for it to work. Why not make a home video on all the great things she does and how much she means to you. Then show it to her alone.

Tell her to do charity work. People have it far worse and she needs to understand that to appreciate what she has. My sister use to be the same way.
