i have a very low self esteem, but sometimes i get into moods where i feel really great about myself (usually followed by me telling myself im being stupid and delusional and getting depressed again)
Unfortunately, this sounds a lot like me. I'm really sorry, Phantom.

^ I can also relate to the above comments.

Yes when it comes to how I look.

No, when it comes to how I should be treated.

I have a horrible time defending myself though.
Just freeze up and tend to miss that important opening when I should be tearing someone a new arsehole. One of these days, I'm going to get it right.

My self-esteem used to be pretty damn low. Over time, though, I've managed to raise it and convince myself that I am a decent person. I am nowhere near perfect, nor will I ever be, but I am not terrible, either. I suck at communicating with people, and I wouldn't consider myself someone to look up to, for the most part. But that's okay.

I'm glad you're okay with yourself now portrait.
It's usually crap.
Same for me, I'm sorry.

It depends. I have moderate to high sef esteem when at home. But outside of home, my self esteem can drop pretty low.

This is a very easy yes.

One of the things I do in MMOs while gaming, is after getting max level I spend most of my time helping totally random lower level players almost continually. I like making them happy and it seems to make me feel better. Sometimes I will get 3-4 replies, and help them all one by one, asking if the later ones can be patient enough to wait. Though a terrifying thought occurred to me the other day, and that was, maybe this is quite a selfish gesture. Am I doing it for me or for them? :( But if someone asks for help and I am not busy, I usually assist without hesitation, so who knows.

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.

exactly 100% the same

Happy by myself in my own world. Proud. Perfect.

One word from / to anyone else means absolutely nothing to them or me

I'd say low self esteem is one the main problems I have in life

The best girlfriend I had is a lawyer in Istanbul

I have been trying to make a success with eBay. I think I joined in 1999 and have sold a lot of stuff, including my first & second cars, and bought various things to fix / upgrade - Apple Macs.

Now my latest and best car was given to me by a previous girlfriend, and also a lot of kit for the house, and a bathroom tiling makeover
