Hello sanjana,
this is sad story and I can understand how
you feel. It seems to me that your low
self-esteem may have come to the surface
after you experience that you bf cheated
on you.
Sometimes the depression may have a
physiological basis and I would like you
to read:
what is
hypoglycemia?
but I really feel that your low
self-esteem may be at the bottom of your
problems and I certainly agree with you
that we need to do something about it.
We have a self-help program, free of
charge, at our web site, under the name of
psychotherapy
this program looks at the self-image and
how we develop a negative self-image.
Please study transactional analysis (ta).
This is long complicated word for a simple
idea.
It says that the mind can be divided into
the parent, adult and child. When we
communicate to other people we seem to be
hopping from one ego to the next.
The most troublesome ego is the inner
parent within us. It is a moral ego that
sits in judgment all the time. When you
hear people talking who sit in their inner
parent ego, you hear such things as good,
bad, right, wrong, you should, you
mustn’t and so on and on.
The adult in us is the rational ego that
knows what is or is not true. When we
have a low self-esteem it is said that the
parent ego in us seem to be in control.
It seems to be the dominant ego, and when
we want to get rid of negative ideas about
ourselves we need to make the adult the
dominant ego.
The parent ego can also be considered a
fairly primitive part of the mind, that
acts more like an animal than a rational
being. Thus if we want to retrain the
parent in us, we need to retrain it like
we retrain a doggie that is misbehaving.
The point I want to get across is that if
you study our psychotherapy course at the
rate of one chapter a week and mentally
practise as is suggested, you will find
that in about eight weeks time you start
to feel different about yourself.
The course includes a self-assertiveness
training program that teaches you how to
handle criticisms, not only from other
people, but more importantly from within
yourself. It has also a counselling
training program and values clarification
course. The latter will help to define
what you want out of life and assess
whether you are in fact compatible with
other people.
You’ll find the course at
psychotherapy
good luck
