Self Esteem
<p>Self esteem is the overall opinion of your worth, abilities and confidence. It is the way you see and value yourself.&nbsp;</p><p>Funny how all my life have been taught about self esteem right through my primary till secondary days. I always thought I had this concept (self esteem). But I realize that I had always been in safe space and I was too young to really understand it's meaning .</p><p>I was never the shy type in secondary school,, I was very outspoken, confident etc but as I grew older I realized that the way I viewed myself was very low but I had this habit of trying to portray myself as someone who is proud of one self but behind closed doors I some what fell into deep depression.</p><p>I realized that in order to gain my self esteem. I need to figure out what triggered my low self esteem. Then I realized that I was ashamed of my body.. I made a lot of wrong decisions in order to fit in which is quiet stressful.&nbsp; I've been taught about self esteem all my life but I still struggle with it.</p>
