What effects self esteem?
A – Since self esteem is a composite picture of how one feels about oneself. Anything that affects any single aspect of how one is and feels affects self esteem across the board. Someone with high self esteem feels good about himself. Even in difficult circumstances. Such a person knows the circumstances are just the circumstances and he will make it through, no mater what because he can rely on himself and the support of others to get him through anything. It is a knowing, a knowing that all is well in the end no matter how dismal it looks in the moment.
