 |

| I have very low self esteem which causes me to be shy and anxious and depressed. I've read online of talking positive to myself, but everything I could possible say positive about myself would be a lie. How can that help me? |

| the trick is to talk into a mirror and be able to look at yourself when you are talking. start small just a couple of words and go from there. |

| I have low self esteem too. I'm not sure what talking to a mirror would do. I try to find inspirational quotes and phrases and write them down in a notebook or something. then you can read them when you feel down. Also writing in a journal has been a HUGE help for me as far as getting through depression. it helps you see your life as it is and helps put things into perspective. Try these for starters and see where it takes you! Good luck! |
