How can you boost self esteem?

Ordinary_Gurl


I was in a verbally abusive relationship for a year,and I finally found the power to cut off ALL communication with him but I am at a loss with how to regain my self esteem. I need to start exercising and stuff but I’m just not motivated.
,
thanks for all the advice so far, it means a lot.

I lost almost all of my friends this year because of my relationship with him. I live 11 hours away from family and the family here I dont get a long with. So I keep it all to myself.

I think i may look into counseling.

    Dont always think about him. Try to do some fun activities such as taking a jog, swimming or getting involved in sports or community activities. Do you have a hobby of yours? Try that, hang out with your family or friends and have a good time. Go to the movies with a friend or someone else, just go outside and have fun!

    People have the ability to change for the better and feel good about themselves . It might be a good idea to see a Clinical Psychologist about being in a abusive relationship. They have great techniques in assisting people to feel good about themselves and find healthy relationships. I want to wish you the best of luck with new and positive changes in your life.

    Use the mirror technique..First thing in the morning

    and last thing before bed: look yourself in the mirror

    and say out loud 10 affirmations such as ” I am good

    enough,I am attractive and loveable,I am important,I

    am powerul and confident”,make up ur own-u get the

    idea….Very soon,ur subconscious will accept those

    statements as true and forget the mental garbage of

    not being good enough.

    Fall in love with yourself…Stop needing approval

    from other people,even ur crushes or dates….in the

    past due to low self esteem,I used to seek approval

    from everyone.as a result drove them away coz on some

    level they cud sense my desperation and

    neediness…ironically when i really started loving

    and respecting myself by taking care of myself and

    focusing on living my own great life,when i didn’t

    care about what other people thought about me,other

    people came to me,especially girls.even ones who

    ignored me before now were asking me out…all of a

    sudden i went from a guy who used to chase to the one

    being chased and in demand…

    Other things I did: Start my day by focussing on what

    I was grateful for..as simple as the roof over my

    head,food i eat or a girl who just asked me out)..and

    then focussing on what I attract and giving thanks to

    the universe in advance…

    Watch the movie “the secret” ..gud luck)

    I do hope that the follow will help you in some way.

    How’s it going with stopping your abusive self talk? This may take you some time to do, but you’ll progress well if you just stay with it.

    Today, I have some ideas on how you can learn to treat yourself more kindly. It’s time you did this for yourself, too. Here are two simple self esteem tips you can do to start:

    1) Make sure to spend time doing things you enjoy. If you have low self-esteem, often you don’t do things you want to simply because you’re either too busy trying to please others and don’t have time, or because you haven’t paid attention to what you really want to do, to what will make you relax and have fun.

    2) From this point on, start making time to do things you love, such as pursuing creative endeavors, socializing with friends and family, reading books you’ve always wanted to, watching a favorite movie, spend time on journaling hopes and dreams, or taking part in hobbies you enjoy. What you do doesn’t really matter, except that you have to have fun and you actually have to do it and you will be on the important path to overcoming low self esteem.
