I don't have low self-esteem, though my therapist says I do. I know I don't because I know that I am a good person, I know that I am worthy (of anything positive..), I know that I am deserving.., etc. If I had low self-esteem I wouldn't feel that way.

But I do have incredibly low self-adequacy (feel like I'm inadequate around others.. especially females of the same age & other peers) & low self-confidence. There's a difference, though, between that & low self-esteem, though there are similarities.

I'm really not sure. Some days I feel great about myself, like I'm on top of the world, and then other days I feel worthless, hopeless, and like I'll never amount to much of anything.
 
I have very low self esteem topped with feeling like I'm not interesting to anyone or never good enough. I'm a good person who would never intentionally hurt anyone, but this self esteem issue is my Achilles' heel.

No.. I wouldn't say I have low self esteem anymore. But I do still feel inferior if I idealize about others, i'm learning not to.

I know my good and my bad points, and all in all, I think I have low self-esteem. Otherwise I wouldn't be here.

I think of it as being underwater. Sometimes I can almost reach air. On the other hand, it often feels like I'm drowning.

Yes - I feel like a useless piece of **** most of the time. Even when I'm happy I'm still aware that I worth nothing.
