There are a few subjects I am good at and a few more I am great at. I love English and the free writing tasks our teacher gives us. Now, I don't always get to read my text, but my teacher mentions how she liked it very much or how it was very good. Now, I don't want to seem like a complete assh!ole, but I feel super bad and sad when she doesn't say something good about it, like today. I feel like a failure and like I haven't done enough. Please don't tell me that I have a "low self esteem". I just...what's wrong with me? Also it's not like I have crush on my teacher, English was just an example.
I know that other people want to show off their good work as well and get some praise/critique, but I feel so...dumb and stupid when I don't get praised for my work.
Is this normal? If not ( which it probably is) what can I do to prevent it? Am I too harsh with myself? Please be nice, it isn't easy to talk/write about it.
Thank you and have a great day!!

ReplyI'm the same, tbh my self esteem is pretty low but this doesn't mean yours is. It's just nice to feel appreciated when your putting in effort
ReplyThis is definitely normal. It happens to me too. I wish I knew the answer :/
