- To keep low self-esteem at bay, we may try to manufacture high self-esteem but, says therapist Nakita Jangra, this can often fuel our shame
- We have therapists who specialise in working with shame and self-esteem - find them here
Having high self-esteem means:
- being able to value ourselves
- knowing we are worthy
- respecting ourselves
- having confidence in our opinions and abilities
- knowing that we matter
- and being able to take a level of constructive criticism without it feeling like a personal attack
