Is strong self-esteem a mental illness?

To put it bluntly, self-esteem means taking yourself seriously.

As for high self-esteem, that's different. It has several meanings.

First of all, a strong sense of self-esteem means that you take yourself seriously and hope to get the necessary respect in interpersonal relationships, and you can't make unfair jokes about him. I am also very self-disciplined, have high demands on myself, have confidence in myself, can sum up experience in time when encountering difficulties and setbacks, and can accept the opinions of other people. For unfairness, ridicule, etc., I can sit calmly, be polite and courteous, pay little attention to what others think of me, have ideals, plans and behaviors for the future. I am also very happy and free in my relationship.

There is also a compensation strategy of high self-esteem, which is a low self-esteem. On the surface, they take themselves seriously, but this kind of seriousness is not really serious, but they have a "I am not good enough" in their hearts. Therefore, as long as they catch a little in interpersonal relationships that others say he is not good enough, or feel that others don't pay attention to him, they will be very sad, and some even make others feel inexplicably angry. This is the irritable state of depression. It is difficult for such people to listen to other people's different opinions, and they will interpret other people's different opinions and opinions as saying that they are not good enough and are very annoyed. And lack of reflective ability, often very emotional. This situation is often associated with depression. This is closely related to the family environment in which they grew up and the parenting style of their parents. If you have this situation, you may need professional psychological counseling and treatment to help you solve it. Otherwise, it is always unhappy, and it is closely related to depression. Generally speaking, depressed people generally have this kind of low self-esteem, and this situation is illness.

If you have this situation, you can talk to me privately and help you arrange a consultation.

Is high self-esteem a mental illness?

I will answer your question from three aspects!

First, we should talk about the ego related to self-esteem, that is, self-awareness, the individual's feelings and experiences about his physical and mental activities; What kind of person am I, how do I view myself, how do others view me, and what should I do when my view of myself is different from others? So we say that self-awareness includes self-awareness, self-evaluation and self-regulation.

Second self-awareness includes self-esteem, self-confidence, inferiority complex and arrogance. The core of self-esteem is self-confidence, which is what we call self-knowledge and evaluation. What kind of person am I? Self-esteem is self-trust and self-care, which is what we usually call face; Self-confidence means believing in yourself moderately, knowing what I can and what I can't; Inferiority means not believing in yourself, even if I can; Arrogance means trusting yourself too much, knowing what I can't do, having no self-knowledge, being narcissistic, paying too much attention to myself and ignoring the feelings of others. In this sense, high self-esteem is a psychological problem, not a mental illness.

Third, everyone has psychological problems and has strong self-esteem. Since it is a psychological problem, we should adjust our mentality, change our self-awareness, actively adapt to the external evaluation of me, treat ourselves objectively, and treat others' evaluation of me objectively. Let's see if I have strong self-esteem, pay too much attention to face, or be narcissistic, and my views on myself are inconsistent with the environment!

Of course, high self-esteem is not a mental illness, it is just a person's psychological characteristics.

Self-esteem is an emotional experience of self-respect, self-love and self-respect, which is generated and formed by individuals based on self-evaluation, and requires respect from others, the collective and society.

1 "self-esteem" is the experience of affirming and accepting oneself, that is, the "face-saving" psychology. Excessive inferiority and excessive self-love are both unfavorable manifestations of strong self-esteem.

2 The manifestations of self-esteem are: self-confidence, self-love, conceit, inferiority complex and paranoia.

Self-confidence and self-love is a positive aspect of high self-esteem. Self-confidence is based on humility and confidence in success in one's actions. Self-love is a kind of not allowing others to invade and insult yourself.

3 Inferiority and conceit are the negative side brought by strong self-esteem, and conceit is an extreme self-confidence. On the basis of inferiority, conceited people often subjectively belittle others or excessively raise themselves to establish their position in their own hearts.

Inferiority is a common manifestation of negative self-esteem. Based on self-confidence, the gap between reality and ideal is often the reason for one's inferiority.

3 The best way to gain self-esteem is to succeed by yourself. On the contrary, the product of luck will make them treat life more negatively.

Self-esteem is not a problem. A person knows that self-esteem is a good thing. Only driven by self-esteem can we stand on our own feet and strive for our life goals. It's not a matter of self-esteem, it's vanity. To get rid of this problem, we need to put down our airs and treat ourselves as an ordinary person. In this way, after a long time, we will cultivate an ordinary person's heart. If there is a mistake, I will correct it, and I will listen to what is right. Putting on airs is not good for others.

Self-esteem should not be counted as a disease, but in my opinion, it is a full motivation to make people progress.

this kind of person is very strong in everything, always wants to be the best, and doesn't want to be looked down upon by others. In terms of being a man, blx can't listen to other people's ears. Once the wind blows, there will be major changes. At work, I am bent on doing my best and don't want others to tell me what to do. Do things as far as possible, and try your best to do your work to the extreme by your own strength.

If such people get proper praise, they will be more motivated. Will struggle even harder.

I can't stand being wronged. I love face and care about my image. Try to impress others in everything.

how to use it properly will make your life flourish.

It can only be evaluated in many ways, and sometimes self-esteem is too strong, which may make people feel that EQ is somewhat unsatisfactory. However, everyone has his own aspirations, and everyone will have different performances in mentality, personality and temperament. We can't feel humble and inferior just because we are a person with strong self-esteem. We should make full use of our own characteristics and give full play to them properly, so that we can achieve a different life.

I am actually a person with very strong self-esteem. I have been acting very strongly since I was a child. And most of the time, I don't want to speak my mind, and I always want to make progress and development in silent time.

Many people have been troubled by "self-esteem" since childhood, but they have never been clear about what "self-esteem" is all about. Some people have been well treated by "self-esteem", while others have suffered from the pain caused by "self-esteem"! What kind of mentality is self-esteem?

Strong self-esteem is a kind of self-defense psychology. Self-esteem can make people constantly strive for self-improvement and pay attention to maintaining the dignity of personality. If a person's self-esteem is violated, it will cause emotional experiences such as trouble, resentment and anger. However, people with particularly strong self-esteem will be narcissistic, opinionated and disrespectful of other people's opinions and emotions when they go to extremes.

Self-esteem means that a person is always in a respected position in his family, group and partners, so he often has a sense of pride and superiority, thus forming a stable emotional tendency and personality characteristics. The establishment of self-esteem is not only related to a person's many advantages and honors, but also to his superior position. This information has accumulated over time in his mind and has formed a subconscious mind. Therefore, once the external information does not match this, he will feel that he has been violated by the external information, and some vanity will be aroused, which will lead to anger and shame.

Although high self-esteem can't be regarded as a disease in a strict sense, and people with high self-esteem are very self-disciplined, they will do things seriously and seriously, and they can't be careless or even make mistakes, but nothing can be solved perfectly, especially if they keep perfect for a long time, there will always be mistakes or situations that are not in place. Then, because of this occasional mistake, they will blame themselves, be angry and be ashamed, which will also have an impact on their mental health in the long run.

Too much self-esteem is just like a neat freak. Things are done too extreme. Although some aspects may be done relatively perfectly, the extent of the side effects caused by it must also be taken into account and cannot be ignored, otherwise it will outweigh the benefits.

But you can't do without self-esteem. If you lose self-esteem, you will feel inferior and even give up on yourself, and you will go to depravity or crime. A child with many shortcomings has done something good. If he is paid attention to, praised and respected, and his position in the group is restored, his self-esteem will make him more self-loving and thus more strict with himself.

So high self-esteem is not a disease, it is a life attitude and a positive attitude, but you need to control your own discretion and not go to extremes, otherwise it will be easy to fold and lose more than you gain!

Social environment will strengthen our psychology, which is called "polarization".

Simply saying that _ _ high self-esteem is not a mental illness.

If you think so, it means that this psychology has had a certain influence on your psychology and behavior.

because you didn't explain the specific situation, you can't judge whether the impact you are causing on your life is caused by high self-esteem. If you feel particularly uncomfortable, it is recommended to find a psychologist to help you make a scientific diagnosis.

Of course, this is also the result of social polarization.

why did Lao Tzu say that we should "govern by doing nothing"? That is to say, we should not interfere excessively with children's growth, but must conform to the law and let nature take its course.

Lao Tzu's "extremes meet" also says that you must not be too demanding in what you do, otherwise it will backfire.

Why is self-esteem excessive? We can't rule out the vanity factor. You don't need to refute it in a hurry. Think carefully about whether this is the truth.

anxiety is the fear of a danger. You will be afraid of what will happen if you can't do it, how will you face yourself in the future if you can't get someone, and so on.

Anxiety is the cause of many mental diseases and mental disorders in the later period, and excessive anxiety is terrible.

So we must control ourselves properly and reduce our anxiety.

first of all, you should be mentally prepared: you have strong self-esteem and you can't change it.

This habit is generally a habit from childhood, which has entered the "subconscious" level and can't be changed basically. It is called "ID" in psychoanalysis.

Secondly, we should adjust ourselves.

Although we can't get rid of it, we can reduce the anxiety caused by strong self-esteem. In this regard, we suggest reading more psychological knowledge, such as social psychology, to see what factors lead to self-esteem problems and all kinds of influences produced by this society.

once you find out the causes of some problems, you will get a sense of relaxation.

I used to be a person with strong self-esteem. Through studying psychology, my life has changed a lot, and I have relaxed a lot.

A strong sense of self-esteem means that you often use some virtual morality to regulate your behavior and strengthen your image. You are passive and aesthetic in interpersonal communication, and you can't joke. You can realize this, which shows that your level is not very deep. People with high self-esteem generally work hard, make progress and have outstanding advantages, but they are a little rigid, unable to let go or get back. Tension is their normal state.

People with high self-esteem have more backbone and principles in doing things. Although this is a commendatory term, there is nothing wrong with it. However, self-esteem is often hurt because of a little thing, and it will be reflected more strongly than the average person. In fact, you still have to learn to be calm. Self-esteem is for yourself, not for others.

everything pays attention to balance. Everything should be moderate.

Of course, if someone just slanders you by saying that you have too much self-esteem, there is no need to care.

Only when you feel that your self-esteem has affected your life and ruined your business, it needs to be taken seriously.

I think that when you regard too much self-esteem as a problem and want to solve it, you can't solve it yourself. Only then will you need to consider whether to treat it as a mental illness and choose to see a doctor to solve this problem.

So, whether it is a disease depends on whether you can reconcile with yourself and solve the problem yourself.

In addition, I am wary of my self-esteem, and I hope to stay away from people with too high self-esteem as much as possible.

everyone has self-esteem. Enough is enough. Too much self-esteem is not morbid, but it is hard for people to accept it in real life. The so-called strong woman and overbearing man, once they fail and lose power, the consequences are still very miserable. Just as the old saying goes, everyone has self-esteem, so don't lose face for self-esteem.
