this post is specially for fi fi. who came to mind when i was reading in preparation for my exams.. =)do you have a short attention span?
do you have sleepless nights? or resort to sleeping pills to regulate you sleeping pattern?
do you frequently have ulcers?
do you react strongly to life events, whether positive or negative ones?
if you answered yes to majority of the above questions, chances are, you may suffer from low self-esteem!
self-esteem refers to our positive and negative evaluations of ourselves. some individuals have a higher self-esteem than others do, and this attribute can have a profound influence on the way they think and feel about themselves. it is important, however, to note that although some people have a higher self-esteem than others, a feeling of self-worth is not a trait etched permanently in stone but, rather, a state of mind that varies in response to success, failure, changes in fortune, social interactions and other experiences.
so.. research suggests that people who have an unstable, flactuating self-esteem react more strongly to positive or negative life events than do people whose self-worth is stable and secure. self-esteem is linked in important ways to how people approach their daily lives. those who feel good about themselves tend to be happy, healthy, successful and productive. they tend to persist longer at difficult tasks, sleep better at night, and have fewer ulcers. they are also more accepting of others and less likely to conform to peer pressure. in contrast, those with low self-esteem are anxious, depressed, pessimisstic about the future, and prone to failure..
am i right? ;)

That sounds more like an anxiety disorder than low self-esteem to me.
