Potential causes of Low Self-Esteem:
Life Events: Major changes or traumatic experiences, such as loss, rejection, or failure, can deeply impact how we see ourselves and our worth.
Environmental Stressors: Ongoing stress from work, academic pressures, social environments, or financial challenges can erode confidence and self-belief.
Family Background: Early patterns, such as parents with high expectations or a tendency to be overly focused on achievements, neglect, or lack of emotional support, can shape how we perceive ourselves and our abilities.
Personal Beliefs: Negative self-perceptions, perfectionism, or tendencies toward overthinking can lead to persistent self-doubt and feelings of inadequacy.
Social Comparisons: Constant comparisons to others, whether in-person or through social media, can leave you feeling "not good enough" or unworthy.
Substance Use: Misuse of alcohol or drugs can amplify insecurities and prevent individuals from building a healthy sense of self.
