What are some of the common causes of low self-esteem?
assistant
1. Low self-esteem can often be caused by negative self-talk, criticism from others, or unrealistic expectations.
2. It can also be a result of past traumatic experiences, unresolved conflicts, or certain personality traits.
3. Social comparisons, such as comparing oneself to others or to an unattainable ideal, can also contribute to low self-esteem.
4. A lack of meaningful accomplishments and a sense of not measuring up to expectations can also cause low self-esteem.
5. Cultural and societal pressures, such as the need to fit in or be successful, can also leave people feeling inadequate and lead to low self-esteem.
