Comments on: Overcoming Lack of Self Confidence http://womenbygrace.com/overcoming-lack-of-self-confidence/ Everyday Faith Sat, 07 Jan 2012 11:25:24 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: priyanka http://womenbygrace.com/overcoming-lack-of-self-confidence/comment-page-2/#comment-1626 priyanka Sat, 07 Jan 2012 11:25:24 +0000 http://womenbygrace.com/?p=154#comment-1626 Thank you for this article. Please pray for me to grow confident and secure in God. I always thought confidence came from dressing well and looking good. And because of my skin disease my confidence and self-esteem was badly affected. Its so diificult for me to look people in the eye and to make friends because I'm always worried about what others are thinking of me. But then I see some girls who are not wearing trendy clothes and are dressed averagely and yet they are so beautiful and attractive i realise its because the are secure about themselves. So confidence is the best thing to wear and I want my confidence to be based in God. My parents have always criticised me for being shy and weak and I want to prove them wrong. I'm too scared ...I'm scared i won't become better and I won't measure up to their standards. And I do a lot of negative self-talk. PLease pray for me. Thank you for this article.

But, it suddendly happen when i went back to my country (afica) after leaving in the uk for some years that i started to smell. I guess it must have been the africa weather. I did not notice it myself but it was the people around me who noticed it. During my two weeks stay it was full of embarrassment because people were trying not to breath around me and i kept hearing commen like what smells? .i also became sad and low,i guess i was depressed. That became the beginning of my low selfseteem. Now after coming back to the UK, i was spending more time in the bathroom and took more care when it comes to taking care of myself. But because of my sensitivity which developed back in africa, whenever i get close to people sy on the bus i ALWAYS i mean ALWAYS checking for some sort of reactions. Its like buying a gorgeous dress and walking into a room and lookig for reactions. Sometime people sort of try not to breathe where i am and sometimes theres nothing. If i get a bad reaction like covering noses, i just need one person out of 10 people to react to my smell, that is enough to give me a bad day. suddenly that happy girl and smiley girl would rush into the toilet and cry. I guess my problem is looking out for reactions to whatevr i do. I am a christian , i have prayed and i know GOD loves me but if there is any body that is going through what im going thru or has gone thru it, i employ them to reply me. I seriously need help and its more of controlling my thought rather than what is happening externally. God bless u.

I recently found out that my husband of 16 years had been seeing another woman for a whole year. i've forgotten how to live, i have no confidence in myself, i feel lost, confused, extremely depressed, anxious thoughts, hurt, broken-hearted, suicidal at times. I'm scared of living. The worst part is that i blame myself for all that has happened i was molested at a very young age, then ran away with the first man who told me he would take care of me and never let anyone hurt me, again! well he left me for another woman, i then met an married my husband who i recently found out was cheating on me. When i was a young girl i promised that no man would ever hurt me, again in my life and so i never let anyone get close to me or neve showed my love for anyone, i truly love my husband but i neglected him, i was so cold to him, i don't know how to love and this has caused me to get hurt time and time again. I'm afraid of opening up because i just knew that if he knew how much i loved him that he would take advantage of me and hurt me. the pain of being hurt is unbearable i love this man and i didn't know how to love him, i pushed him away and he met someone else. we are trying to work things out but i'm lost the pain has taken over me. pray for me! pray that God will show me to be a strong,confident woman.

I know that in pretty and unique people always compliment me but it's one thing for people to do that but another formme to actually believe it and walk in it . I just want to be free. Please pray for Me. Hi . Recently Gld helped me break up with a guy of Muslim faith. It was hard but inknew it was the right thing to do. Before Immet him I have been with other guys also.
