Low Self-Estem

[Dark Chaos Angel]

Yes I'm having low-self estem problems. Now you already probably miunderstand what I mean. I don't think my self-estem is very low but that could be argueed, especally in certain siturations. But it seems like a very large number of my friends have low self-estem! Now yes I do kind of like a mean asshole for saying that about them. Maybe they don't and my point of view is just really twisted, who knows. I have some justifaction though for me making that statement.

Honestly, I do understand how anyone can have such low self-estem! And it's more then one person too! I don't get it! I honestly don't! It's a mystery to me! I want to understant it better so I can help them better!

When I want something I believe in myself and get it. I don't understand how you are suppose to do anything in life if you can't take that first step in believing you can! I don't understand why so many people have absolutely no self-value in themselves?

Everyone has self-estem problems sometimes but I just don't understand how anyone can constantly think there life is useless. How can you live like that? When I ever I feel like that for more then five minutes I want to committe suicide! As you see I too have my own version of self-estem problems but it's much differnt from this. I don't understand this at all!

I'm talking to people on AIM about the same thing. Please if anyone can enlighten my dumbass on this topic then please do so because I feel like an ignorant jerk!

Nah, thou arent an ignorant Jerk. My self-esteem sometimes is under the floor.
I just feel that everything I do is going to end badly, yadda yadda, etc. so I dont do it.
I know its bull****. I know I shouldnt be so damn low all the time. But I still do and thats that.
Not all the time though. More recently I've been a happier, more bubbly person (true Jakey).
EG, if you took me now and me from a few years ago, you wouldnt instantly see the connection. (Mentally + physically).
But, the point of this? I still dont understand why I had such low self-esteem. I still dont.
(Meh, this post was just a waste of space =P)

I guess I know how you feel. There are alot of times I want to die to, but I use my sure-fire way of cheering me up. 1. Read Manga, 2. Play Videogames, 3. Watch Russell Peters.

Just do something that makes you happy, and it'll make you think. If I die, I won't be able to enjoy this will I? That's what I do all the time. No one's life is useless. It's the way you live your life. If you do nothing, and do bad things ect, then of course you may think your life is useless. However if you just help people or enjoy life you won't think that way.

I'm not sure if that made sense... >_>

*whistles* i couldn't possibly have low self esteem! no! not me!

but i have been through what you are through. i too, have thought about suicide at times, and i almost did it once... had it not been if i asked my self if it was really worth it to cauze everyone that much grief.(though a few would be happy)

but yes... you know all about it...
