How do you guys boost your self esteem?

June 24th, 2009

I have the worst self esteem possible, i have amazing friends that try to help me out. But i can't help think that they are lying to me. What do you guys do in the morning to boost your own self esteem? Any tips?

Get a good night's sleep so that you arent tired, lazy, and in a bad mood the next morning.

When you wake up, set yourself mini-goals for the day and try to accomplish them. For example, set yourself a goal that you'll study for 3 hours, go for a 30 minute run, have lunch/movie with a friend, and cook a healthy meal. At the end of the day look back on your day and see if you were able to accomplish what you set out to do. If so then it should boost your self-esteem alot. Then do it again the next day with bigger goals.

Another piece of advice is to not live in the past. If you keeping thinking about the past and poor decisions you made, then it will give you a negative attitude on life and a poor self-esteem.

Be optimist and happy and surround yourself with friends and family.

What shall i do about my self harming?

June 23rd, 2009

I've been self harming for aver a month, i've got 4 nasty scars and now i've got another cut. I don't know how to stop, can anyone give me advice but its driving me mad because i know i can't help but cut. And everybody is classing me as emo too because of it and the way i dress. How could i stop self harming?But to be honest it feels good. I need help!
I'm 13 and cut because i get upset or very angry.

you can emo and not cut yourself. if that is your style go for it. the cutting needs to be taken care of though.
if you are having feelings of frustration, anger, or being upset cutting in not the answer. that is something you need to talk to your parents and doctor about. there are programs and even medication that can help you. there are MHMR programs in most areas that can help you see psychologist and get medication at low or no costs.
my friend used to cut and she is doing much better now but its like an addiction. you are never fully cured. seek help please.

What are you view points on these questions about self esteem?

June 21st, 2009

1. Do you think that if every person in the US (hypothetically) have normal (not high) self esteem that it would help or hurt sociality?
2. Does trying to build up esteem for every person who has a low esteem feed into the 'Me' Generation?
3. At what point does healthy self esteem become arrogance?
4. What are the pros and cons of low self esteem?
5. Should a person who is overweight have as high as a self esteem as a smaller person?

Hello

1. Hypothetically speaking, I don't think it would help not hurt sociality because everyone would feel the same in regards to anything. Everyone would feel positive and keep there heads up when its the right time but they will also feel down and ashamed within time. It would actually balance with eachother if it was not normal.

2. Not necessarily would it feed into the Me generation because in reality everyone thinks about themselves before others. Everyone wants what is good for themselves and what makes them feel good and happy. So by trying to build up their self esteem, I believe would not feed to the Me generation because they are just focusing on there own emotions before others.

3. Healthy self esteem can become arrogance when everything in that persons life is going perfectly well for a while. In life there is always a balance, (Good vs Evil, Fire vs Water) so having a healthy self esteem is good but sometimes people take it to the extreme and believe that they are the best, or they believe too much in themselves, which in reality it is not wrong, but it just becomes annoying and arrogant.

4. pros - I believe would be that people would feel sorry for you and help and give you everything, People would pity you and pay more attention to your situation. Then again that is a con because you should not need people helping you because you have low self esteem.

con - you will waste your life sitting on a bench wishing life would change for you but nothing would ever happen. Thinking low of yourself and having low esteem would just bring distress and depression.

5. Yes because you are the way you are and there is very little if not none on changing it. People do not realize it is very hard to change on ways of doing things. Not everyone can do a 180 and change opposite direction in life. So you should be happy the way you are and accept that that is how life is.

hope this can help.

What can I do to stop being so bitter and self destructing for an outlet?

June 19th, 2009

I am VERY bitter and "grudgy". How can I helo myself get over this or better yet not get SO angry, snappy, and bitter. I also self destruct through sex and allow people I KNOW who will hurt me do so. I have shown patterns of pushing the people who LOVE me and want to help me away, yet I allow and almost enjoy people who will screw me over but don;t care and feel I deserve it. Any suggestions on where to begin?

Why are you so angry ?

You must forgive people who made you this angry..start from there.

You are only hurting yourself if you don't

What’s the best self-leveler to use on my wood sub floor in my bathroom?

June 18th, 2009

I’m remodeling my bathroom and will be installing the warm tiles heating cable. It calls for a scratch coat of mortar over the cables and i want to use a self leveler to do so. Any suggestions on which is the best?

I put a cement board down 1 st and nail all nails down well.. Clean board well to leave dust free.. I use Custom self leveling compound. get it at HD for about 35 $ a 50 # bag .. I divide each bag into 2 equal buckets in a 3rd bucket I put the amount of water for 1/2 the bag and add 1 of the bucketas to water.. Mix well w/ a paddle and !/2 inch hd drill. Mix well at medium to low speed for 3 minutes..Start out slow.. Pour over wiring.. PLUG ALL HOLES.. … around stool , any pipes ,doorway w/ a 1×2 as a block.. This stuff looks like muddy water and is thin..and will pour like water almost.It will flow all over so plan ahead.. Pour all at once , it will seek its level..Make sure all wire is down well because if you don t the wire will “float up” and be exposed.. Some may any way bot if you tile in the next day or 2 it ll be ok.. Any ???? e mail me GL
