[quote=Anonymous]the trick to self esteem is to impress YOURSELF. That is the way to get out of it. So you have to go do something. No amount of naval-gazing therapy re your parents will help you get out of this. No amount of external validation will get you out either. And no amount of "just believe in yourself" will help because that's not how the human brain works. The best avenue for "doing something" is to do something where people end up depending on you. Because then you matter to someone, so it makes you feel important. But in the end, you have to impress yourself--maybe by helping out a number of people, and seeing that you made a difference.
