Stress and Self-Image
Stress Increases Sense of Low Self-Esteem
Self esteem is the acceptance of, respect for, confidence and satisfaction that you have in yourself as a person. Self esteem is based upon an internal image of ourselves that we carry around , consciously and subconsciously.
We begin to create our internal image in very early childhood based on our interactions with others and our environment. Especially the signals and messages we receive from our parents at first . Then, from things like our performance in school and sports and how likable our childhood peers and friends and perhaps our siblings make use feel.
During these formative times, if we receive negative signals and messages we may later on suffer from low self esteem in adulthood. This is not good at all, because your self esteem determine how you interact with the world. These interactions include:
* Your personal dignity .
* How you treat yourself .
* How you judge those around you.
* How you tend to your own self-image and persona.
What is Low Self-Esteem?
Low Self Esteem is a negative view of oneself . It is easily confused with criticism. But it isn't that; and since criticism is healthy, if a person with low self esteem starts resisting being self-critical in confusion this can lead to tremendous social interaction problems for them.
A poorly tended persona, lack of confidence, depression, and insecurity in intimate relationships are all possible results of low self esteem. Low self esteem might be caused by perfectionism, abuse, being too strongly criticized, or being laughed at, ignored, or ridiculed.
The importance of a healthy self esteem for the foundation of your existence cannot be underestimated. It defines how you perceive yourself and life in general. It means to live consciously, assume responsibility, respect others, and take care of yourself. Healthy self esteem enables you to be proud without being overbearing , approach circumstances with a positive outlook, know you are worthy to realize your dreams, understand that you deserve a joyful life, and make choices that are supportive instead of defeating.
