Self-Esteem: Do you have it or are you lacking? Take this test.

[graywarrior]

http://www.queendom.com/tests/access_page/index.htm?idRegTest=720

And then share the results...if you have enough self-esteem. I don't.

[MrCoffee]

1. i don't need some test to tell me that i'm AWESOME

i already know it.

[graywarrior]

2. I agree

with everything you say. I have no self-esteem. Ha ha.

[MrCoffee]

3. your agreement simply means that you can discern greatness

which is an admirable quality.

[graywarrior]

4. No, it means that I don't want to disagree with you, therefore causing possible confrontations

leading to uncontrollable weeping and eventual drinking into a stupor.

[bigwillq]

5. My results

Your results indicate that your sense of self-worth is very healthy. You rarely, if ever, put yourself down or fall victim to self-depreciating statements. There are certain attitudes and beliefs that have been found to contribute to and "feed" a positive self-image, and you appear to have most of them. Examples would be believing that you deserve to be loved or respected, believing that you’re good enough for someone, and focusing on your good qualities rather than only your perceived faults. While you may not necessarily feel all of these things all of the time, your opinion of yourself is quite positive. This is a healthy attitude to have, as a poor sense of self-worth can hold you back from pursuing your goals, cause you unnecessary stress, and even become self-fulfilling prophecies.

[Chovexani]

6. I scored a 20

Not really surprised though. I've had low self-esteem my whole life and have struggled with depression off and on for most of it.

[graywarrior]

7. I totally understand.

It affects every decision you have to make. Horrible.

[CreekDog]

66. i lie on these things to get a higher score

:hug:

[trof]

8. Sorry, that test is WAAAYYY too long to do for free.

And my self esteem is just fine anyway.

[Greyskye]

9. I think the report is lying to me.

10. That's the same score I got. My self esteem was Really low, but I have been

working on it lately.

[graywarrior]

11. I keep forgetting that I have to work on it

[jlake]

[rockymountaindem]

46. I only got an 87

Now I feel insecure :scared:

[PassingFair]

63. I'm an 87 as well.

Do you think less of me?

[rockymountaindem]

64. Hardly. We're equals.

That much is obvious, because that test had so many questions it couldn't possibly be wrong.

[Xipe Totec]

14. If you have to take a test to find out,

that pretty much answers the question, doesn't it?

:shrug:

[DarkTirade]

22. 2nded.

I actually don't have all that much self-esteem... I just have low esteem for tests about self esteem. :)

[Xipe Totec]

23. I'm a lousy test taker

but narcissists like myself don't have low self-esteem problems.

[DarkTirade]

24. I always assumed I didn't have much self esteem

because I actually AM that smart and pretty, so thinking it isn't a matter of self esteem. Just realism. :)

[Wheezy]

15. I scored 89.

They say it's "very healthy."

I imagine it would have been much lower than that 10 years ago.

Sense of Self-Worth

Your results indicate that your opinion of yourself is generally positive, but your sense of self-worth isn’t as strong as it could be. You sometimes put yourself down, falling victim to your own self-depreciating statements. An unstable sense of self-worth can result from a wide range of factors: perhaps you've recently gone through a particularly difficult period in your life, or you didn't get the support you needed from others when you were growing up. The important thing however, is not to figure out who/what is to blame; it is to recognize that it's now up to you to boost your self-image. There are certain attitudes and beliefs that have been found to contribute to and "feed" a negative self-image, and you appear to have some of them. Examples would be believing that you don’t deserve to be loved or respected, believing that you’re not good enough for someone, and focusing only on your perceived faults rather than good qualities. While you may not necessarily feel all of these things all of the time, there may be a few that are ingrained in your mindset to the point that they are surely affecting your life. You may not even realize it, but these beliefs can discourage you from pursuing your goals, cause you unnecessary stress, and even become self-fulfilling prophecies. A slight change in mindset could really make a difference in your life.

21. 79, not that I give a shit.

[Critters2]

25. 25. Not surprised

Your results indicate that you seem to have a fairly low opinion of yourself. You often put yourself down a lot, falling victim to your own self-depreciating statements. Essentially, you are suffering from a lack of self-worth, an issue that many people encounter at some point in their lives. A weakened sense of self-worth can result from a wide range of factors: perhaps you've recently gone through a particularly difficult period in your life, or you didn't get the support you needed from others when you were growing up. The important thing however, is not to figure out who/what is to blame; it is to recognize that it's now up to you to boost your self-image. There are certain attitudes and beliefs that have been found to contribute to and "feed" a negative self-image and you appear to have quite a few of them. Examples would be believing that you don’t deserve to be loved or respected, believing that you’re not good enough for someone, and focusing only on your perceived faults rather than good qualities. While you may not necessarily feel all of these things all of the time, they are pretty ingrained in your mindset to the point that they are surely affecting your life. You may not even realize it, but these beliefs can discourage you from pursuing your goals, cause you unnecessary stress, and even become self-fulfilling prophecies. A change in mindset could make all the difference in the world.

I admire anyone with the smarts and the compassion to so eloquently express themselves.

I should probably get counseling. I can't picture myself reciting affirmations, though...

I'm feeling rather low right now. But that's because I'm careful to separate my feelings about myself from my feelings about my situation, so I guess that helps. I'm not sucky; my situation is.

[PRETZEL]

73. I scored the same,

you said exactly what I feel right now, literally word for word.

[Rabrrrrrr]

27. I'd take it, but I'd probably just fuck it up and then I'd be laughed at, like always.

Because I suck at everything and I'm stupid.

[supernova]

29. You strike me as a healthy ego

:D

[Rabrrrrrr]

32. Yes, indeed. I just finished the test - 88%

That seems about right!

[supernova]

34. I'd say so

:D

I'd probably score higher if I felt better about my situation. Still I'm trying to keep it in the road. :-)

[Canuckistanian]

28. 76 for me

Interesting test.

At the moment, I'm very happy with my situation. But I'm coming off of a really bad summer/fall.

I don't EVER let situations get the best of me unless it completely traumatic.

[supernova]

30. Know what you mean

Nothing, and I mean NOTHING will ever top 10 years ago when I went through about 5 life events in the space of a 1 1/2. :crazy:

[Canuckistanian]

45. The same thing happened to me.

In 1996, my mother and grandmother died.

The same year, I was married and became a Dad.

And I moved out of the house I had been living in for most of my life.

Crazy year.

[supernova]

53. Get out of my head!

I'm similar to you..

in that space of 18 months, I:


Experienced my dad's death

Broke up a 10 year marriage,

Left a stable but poorly paid job, moved to a different city

Cared for my mother and watched her die

Became a first time home owner and got a new job.

Six months later:

Participated in my niece's wedding the same weekend I filed for divorce.

Geez, it can only get better. P

[hisownpetard]

61. Of course, it can 'only get better' - especially if you lived in a stable.

:hi:

[Kutjara]

40. I scored 52 and got the same blurb.

Seems I'm not even enough of a worthwhile individual to deserve my own paragraph about how crappy my self-esteem is. It's enough to make me slit my wrists, if I thought I was worth the cost of the blades. Oh woe is me, oh woe oh woe.

[last_texas_dem]

76. Yeah, I scored a 57 and received the same response

I was kind of expecting to get something along those lines. My view of myself is fairly complicated, so I figured I'd end up somewhere in the middle. I'm often depressed and probably have undiagnosed social anxiety disorder, but also have a decent level of confidence in who I am as a person and am unlikely to change much about myself to try to appeal to others.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

38. Why should I? I'm no good at that stuff anyways.

I'll just fail.

Not really a surprise. I pretty much loathe myself on a daily basis.

The only thing that keeps me from offing myself is the fact that I think other people around me are worse than I am. In the land of the blind, the one eyed are kings.

When they see the light that is your soul, they shield their eyes from the brightness of your alphaness. TO ONE SIDE, BETAS! Your king has arrived.

it wouldn't even let me take the test :( I was redirected to the index page. alas.

Seriously, though, I like this guy's take on it...

http://www.valt.helsinki.fi/blogs/jmikkone/post11.htm

Albert Ellis starts his introduction to the book by asking: “Is self-esteem a sickness?” Then, he states that self-esteem is probably the greatest emotional disturbance known to the human race, if we understand self-esteem in the way in which it is usually defined. Because of our conditional self-worth, Ellis is rumoured to have said a number of times that: "All humans are out of their fucking minds – every single one of them".

Here's to being out of my fucking mind :)

[Phentex]

89. 94. I think I suffer from too much self esteem at times.

I'm often puzzled by how little others have for themselves. Sometimes people are so concerned about what others think of them they make themselves miserable. I cannot live that way.
