Question by BoomBoom: How to improve low self-esteem?
So I want to know if there are ways to deal with low self-esteem or even a way to conquer it. I recently found out that I exhibit all the signs of low self-esteem and with school coming back I don’t know how I’m going deal with it while being around people constantly.
People tell me I’m pretty, beautiful, cute hot all the time. They say I have a great body blah blah blah but somehow it’s like deep down inside I’m so paranoid that everyone is lying to me. I have a lot of friends and they’re all great but I don’t think I could talk to anyone about what I’m going through. I put on this confident exterior so that no one can find out how I really am on the inside.

I have what people call “the ugly duckling syndrome” where when I was a child, I was very tom boyish, horrible haircut, braces, acne, a little overweight and bad posture. Since then, I’ve grown into my nose, lost a lot of weight after my growth spurt, all the baby fat from my face was gone, my acne cleared, I had straight teeth and my hair is not as unruly as before.

I do realize I’m a lot better looking than before and I’d never want to relive that period of time in my life but I still feel the need to be perfect, you know?
I know people should like me for my personality and my morals but I have this idea that if I were perfect, everyone would like me and my life would be better and I’d be happier.

I don’t understand why I’m the way I am.
How did I develop this hatred and disapproval of myself?
I have a vague idea that this sprouted during my childhood with all the awkwardness previously mentioned but I think it’s also because my parents used to compare me a lot to other people’s children and that made me jealous, afraid of competition and self-concious.

Can someone please help?
I’d really like to get better and stop hating myself and hating other people because I’m jealous of the,.
I really really would like to get better. Thank you.
And please, no jokes. I’m really just looking for advice. Thank you.

Question by Annie: Why does AA tell me to not be angry?
I had to attend AA meetings after getting caught drinking underage. AA members frequently bring up the topic of anger and discuss how much anger they have and how they need to stop being so angry. They say anger is a destructive emotion that you should always get rid of.

This is vastly different from what my therapist says I should be thinking. I have “nice girl syndrome” meaning I spent years being a complete doormat and letting people walk all over me. I was in abusive relationships. My boyfriend would cheat. I would confront him and he would turn it all around. I was so worried about what people thought about me that I would sacrifice my self-respect in order to have a good reputation.

I never had any anger at other people. I thought everything was my fault. I had excessive guilt. I would constantly beat myself down for all my mistakes.

My therapist says it is good that I am finally starting to have some anger. So why do people in AA tell me it is so bad that I have anger
now?

This is because now that I am angry at the people that abused me, I no longer answer their calls. Now, the cycle will end. I don’t let my anger get out of control. I put it into constructive things like doing well in school. Here are some things I am angry about.

-The man that raped me when I was 18
-My bf that constantly cheated on me and then turned it around on me everytime I contronted me.
-The man that took me on a date then put his hand up my skirt.
-My former guy friends that would always turn the conversation to sexual nature. My therapist helpe me become angry at them so I no longer talk to them.
-My boyfriend that started a vicious rumor about me when I dumped him.

I like feeling angry. I now understand that I can let go of the guilt and I know the warning signs of abusive men. I now stand up for myself. I love life!

Why do AAers say my anger is bad? They say it is going to make me drink.

My therapist says I woul underage drink because I was a doormat
that would do anything to make people like me. She said I coudn’t say “no.” I hate drinking! It makes me feel like my old doormat self.

When my “friends” ask me to drink I say NO.

I love life!

Why do people in AA try to bring me down?

I am trying to be a strong woman.

Question by julybaby: Man trouble?
2 yrs ago I met a guy, he’s an Army guy, really cool. Not the most good looking person – bald head, tall – but he had a great smile. I went out with him a few times, & then learned that he’s a serial dater. He has trouble with committment (he even told me so). I believe him b/c he never seems to settle down with anyone.

He wanted to remain friends with benefits, but I said no & stopped all contact. He even moved to another state, called me twice, we talked but I could tell he still didn’t want a committment.

I found his myspace page & he has all women on it. There is only one attractive girl but the rest are so-so or even kind of ugly.

I don’t know why I am still thinking of him. Maybe it’s just the “man that got away syndrome” but I wish I would stop. I keep thinking he will call me & tell me he’s made a mistake & that he does want to commit to me.

I need to stop thinking like this!

How can I get over him?

Question by Dogs are the kindest creatures: Pregnant and nervous when it comes to going to the doctor…how to keep blood pressure in check at doctors?
Okay Im 33 weeks pregnant I tend to have what they call “white coat syndrome” basically I go to the doc get really nervous, blood pressure goes up. All while I am there, and within 20 minutes after I leave all is fine again.

Now my blood pressure is normally around 112/70 or something like that. But it shot up today (and I could feel it go up) when I was at the doctors, infact it shot up to 155/90.

Anyways the doc wanted to admit me but when she realized that would only make matters worse she went ahead and sent me home to see if it would help. Anyways I took my blood pressure within 30 minutes of leaving and it was back down to normal…I checked it again a few minutes ago and its normal.

So now i am home and exhausted and the doc wants to see me again on Monday morning. My question is how can i keep myself from getting so nervous that this happens again monday. Because if it happens again monday I’m sure she will admit me and well that will make things worse.

She also said if its up again she wants me on blood pressure medicine which isnt good because with both my mother and my grandfather (they have the same issue I have white coat syndrome)…when they were both put on blood pressure medicine they both basically their blood pressure bottomed out to nothing and they had to be rushed to the emergency room.

So what can I do to prevent this from happening again? I’m high strung by nature but I’ve never had blood pressure issues and I obviously don’t because I check it often and its always pretty normal (except at docs office)
My mother is an RN and she checks it for me
We also have a machine that has been calibrated by one physician….but we check both by machine and by manual cuff

Answer by gm
See if the Dr. can make a housecall. If not, try deep breathing exercises. Tell everyone there what you’ve told us. I’m sure they’ll understand. It’s not uncommon for women to be nervous at the Doctor’s office.
