Problems that Cause Low Self Esteem

A lot of things can cause low self esteem, but the number one factor by far is negative child development experiences. This page is dedicated to covering the impact of unmet childhood dependency needs on people who, for one reason or another, do not get their emotional dependency needs met.

Along with low self-esteem, other results of unmet childhood needs include:

  • Acting-Out at School
  • Bed Wetting
  • Obesity in Teenagers
  • Problem Teenagers
  • Depression Among Teenagers
  • Teenager Pregnancy
  • Chronic Depression Among Men and Women
  • Alcoholism in Teenager
  • Codependency & Addiction
  • Intimacy Problems
  • Chaotic Relationships
  • And More

As you can tell, life complications are pervasive when kids grow up with issues that cause low self esteem.

The Iceberg

The above list is just the "tip of the iceberg"...in fact, in the following PowerPoint presentation I use the Iceberg as a model for exploring the impact of not getting enough of our needs met.

If you would like to explore factors that cause low self esteem problems in yourself or someone you care about, you have come to the right place...be sure to get your copy of "The Iceberg" - Discover Your True Self and The Iceberg Recovery Workbook after watching this free media preview.
