    Why does low self-esteem take so much effort?

    Why do I constantly have to tell myself "I hate myself" and tell myself how stupid I am multiple times on a daily basis if it's true? How come I haven't accepted my stupidity and moved on with my life? Just saying, because, I know that I've mentally told myself negative things THOUSANDS of...

And even then I'm not speedy about it, but it has a...
