Dear Lybrate user When our self esteem gets very low then we start feeling this way. There can be difference between your ideal self and real self and when there is a significant difference between these two then we get stressed, upset, hopeless and also depressed. Perfectionism also comes when the self esteem is low because we do not want to be wrong or incorrect or imperfect. So try not to be perfect all the time. Its ok if we commit any mistake or do not do something properly. Never compare or try to compare yourself with anybody. You have your own unique personality wich is good and you can always improve it and make it better. Also when our self esteem is low we kind of seek approval from others and what others think about us becomes our top priority and thus we get anxious stressed and it becomes hard for us to do anything even the simple tasks. So you should try to get out of this. Its ok if somebody does not agree with you. Its ok if you make a mistake or do something wrong. Just try to improve yourself for the your own sake. And in such cases we get negative and do not notice anything positive in our kife so you should start noticing all the good things you do and celebrate it (small celebrations or giving yourself any reward or compliment). You can also consult any psychologist and plan a therapy. You can also send an enquiry to us for getting a free consultation.
