Self-esteem

 Everyone has feelings inside, according to his personality can manifest itself in different ways. Many times these events depend on other factors as the physical, sentimental and emotional, they can positively or negatively influence the formation of the person or self-esteem.




What is Self Esteem?

Self-esteem is the evaluative sense of our being, our way of being, of who we are, of all body traits, mental and spiritual shape our personality. This we learn, change and improvement. It is from 5-6 years when we started to form a concept of how we see our elders (parents, teachers), peers, friends,  and the experiences that we acquire.

According as is our self-esteem, it is responsible for many failures and successes, as appropriate self-esteem, associated with a positive view of myself, to enhance the ability of people to develop their skills and increase the level of personal security, while low self-esteem that focus on the person to defeat and failure.

Low Self Esteem

Everyone inside unresolved feelings, but we are not always aware of these. The hidden feelings of grief tend to become angry, and eventually become angry with ourselves, thus giving rise to depression. These feelings can take many forms: hate ourselves, anxiety attacks, sudden mood swings, guilt, overreaction, hypersensitivity, find the negative in positive situations or feel powerless and self-destructive.

When a person fails to be authentic is the greatest sufferings arise, such as, mental health, depression, neurosis and certain features that may not become pathological but create a series of dissatisfaction and pain situations, such as shyness, shame, fear, psychosomatic disorders.

Self-esteem is important because it is the way we perceive and value as well as shapes our lives. A person who lacks confidence in itself, or in their own possibilities, it may be by experience that this would have been felt or confirmation messages or confirmation des transmitted by people who are important in the life of it, that encourage or denigrate.



Another reason why people come to devaluation, is by comparison with others, emphasizing their virtues in which they are superior, for example, feel that fail to reach yields than others, believe that their existence not have a purpose, a sense and feel incapable of giving, their significant others and disqualify them is reduced to the existence of a being almost without being. Come to understand that not all people are different, unique and unrepeatable, so are considered less than others.

The person, growing and forming their personality within the family environment, which is the main factor influencing the formation of the same, and that it incorporates the values, rules and customs which sometimes tend to be counterproductive. Some of the issues mentioned above are incorporated in, the family, through the "model" that society presents to us, and this is embraced by all social groups. But the personality of each one, not only formed through the family but also with what it believes others think of her and what she thinks of herself, coming out of this environment and interacting with people of a different group.
