What are the signs of a low self-esteem?

Answer 1

"What are signs of a poor self image?" Causes of a poor self image How we think about ourselves, our self image, is largely determined by what others have said. The parents play a big role in this, but so do other kids. Remember that when you're young, you're wide open to suggestion (mind programming). I'm trying to show you that when you start young enough or gullible enough, you can be made to believe anything. Including that you're stupid, ugly, incompetent, unloveable, incorrigible, etc. And that program tends to stick, especially if you were in an emotional state. Now that you're older, you want to get rid of such "programs" which affect you at a subconscious level, often for the rest of your life to some extent. It is highly unlikely your poor self-image came from a single event. Usually many. author: Loren Parks, Psychological Research Foundation, Inc.

One way is to check how you feel about yourself. If you feel like you can never accomplish anything, for example, that could be one sign of low self esteem. Low self esteem varies depending on the person. Some people have low self esteem about how they look. You might be overly concerned with some aspect of your appearance or your body weight. Another possible sign of low self esteem is depression and stress.
