I know I do. I have now started to call myself beautiful, instead of ugly. I used to think most of my life that I was ugly and no one wanted me. Now I decided to change that for the new year. I have a low self-esteem in general. People tell me I'm nice and caring, I am. Some days I feel really bad about myself. Do you have a low self-esteem and an inferiority complex?
Yes. For sure. I've dealt with it in many ways and still have yet to really feel comfortable in my own skin. I try to put on a good front but that's all it is. As a musician,when I'm onstage I am fully in charge but offstage it's a different story. growing up I was told I was ugly by my peers and the opposite sex although I did have some luck from time to time. I have had relationships with some great ladies and felt pretty good about it but in the end it's hard to live down the past. Nowadays I tend to move between being very confident or not. A bit of a dichotomy but such is life. Thanks for the topic. Good one. You're beautiful and never believe anything less.
Thanks.
I tell people I have a superiority complex. This is half-joking and half-serious. The serious part is to make myself feel positive and good about myself. As a result I can (hopefully) deal with life's little difficulties more easily. The joking part is demonstrated whenever I see someone famous, usually on television, I often say something like, 'They are no better a human being than you or me.' I don't think anyone, including myself, really thinks I am in any way superior.
