It's important you think and feel positive things. So stop thinking about what's negative and think of the positive things about your life. You start to have goals and aspirations for the future of anything that you want to be. Whether that be working on self image or health or fitness or being smarter. whatever it is that you want to do, you have to get out and there and starting striving for that goal step by step. It may seem impossible in the beginning, but if you make milestone goals along the way it will be much more achievable.

Also it's great to have support from family and friends. You don't necessarily have to communicate your specific goals to them but having a group where you can just chill and laugh and have fun is important. Things may be hard in life, but as long as there are the good times to relax and take a break then that's really good.

Self esteem is about your mindset, not your particular circumstance. So if you think your life sucks or you are not great a person, that's only the way you think about it. It's a matter of perspective and you just have to change that perspective to see things in a better light. Of course you would like to possibly change your circumstance, but the only way forward is to view the positives and make the most of them and make positive steps forward for positive change. Things will get better and you need to believe that and make it happen.
