- Negligent parents. Having parents that weren’t there when you needed support.
- Disapproving parents. Never getting positive feedback as a child can leave you chasing approval from others.
- Physical insecurities. Not being able to fulfill society’s standards of what’s ‘good’.
- Past trauma. A person who was abused might believe they deserved it and which is detrimental for their self-worth.
- Anxiety and depression. These issues can hinder with most areas of your life and self-confidence is one of them.
- Bad friends. Having friends who are fake and manipulative.
- Negative self-talk. At some point, they developed this pattern and now it runs them.
- Comparing themselves. People tend to compare their chapter 2 with someone’s chapter 57. It’s irrational.
