Low Self-Esteem
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Low self-esteem is a negative and persistent assessment that a person makes of themselves, in which insecurity, self-criticism, and the feeling of not being worthy enough predominate. It influences how we relate and face challenges.
How does it manifest? It may be reflected in constant self-criticism, difficulty accepting accomplishments, fear of rejection, or a tendency to avoid new challenges.
When to seek support? When it interferes with relationships, performance, or emotional well-being, professional support is helpful.
Who treats it? The psychologist supports this process through different strategies of personal work. Talking with a professional can help you understand the origin of these beliefs and strengthen a more realistic and kind image of yourself.
