They say only you can make yourself feel good and it comes from within. Then why when someone builds up my self esteem I feel better and can make it through? If someone doesn’t I feel like crap. What’s the truth? I think that the enduring self esteem comes from within when people build you up; they're tapping into your ego so it gives you a temporary boost. You have to be careful with it though because the ego boosts can make you dependent on them where you feel like you don't matter unless someone is praising you. What do you think?
