  • People with low self esteem who feel weak exist in the real world. Some of them overcome personal obstacles in their way in order to develop themselves personally. It is those who come on strong and dominant towards them make them feel weak and having low self esteem due to vulnerability. That is most likely the case or that they have been mistreated in some way psychologically speaking. It takes a shallow mind not to notice this.

      Those may be triggers FOR YOU, but someone else may have been bullied as a kid and decided to be dominant instead to make sure they don't get hurt again instead of choosing to be a coward and a wus. Still others choose to be passive aggressive and go behind the other persons back and say evil things about them. Low self esteem is something someone chooses for themselves. It is what they say to themselves that causes low self esteem. This is another thing that happens in your head and is not caused by others.

      There are psychological bullies capable of destroying someone else’s self esteem by putting them down mentally by saying horrible things about them. That is what happens among people and is not in my head.

      If its 'someone else's self esteem' then its happening in their heads. No one can say anything to me to lessen my value. When you accept this truth and know your value no one else can lower your self esteem. Self esteem by definition is created by "self": "self-es·teem noun confidence in one's own worth or abilities; self-respect." There is assertiveness training for those with low self esteem. You should try it. Maybe then you will realize the truth and stop lying about what causes low self esteem. You need to accept responsibility for who you are. Its your fault not anyone else's. If you don't like who you are then change. But for heaven's sake stop blaming everyone else. The longer you pass blame onto others the longer its going to take you to make the changes necessary to improve your self esteem and depression.

  • That's so they can rise above societal expectations and embrace their true identity. The Bible teaches about overcoming low self-esteem through faith and God’s help. Joshua 1:9 "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go."
