Is Negative Self Talk and Self Esteem Affecting You?
How often do you talk to yourself during the day? When I was growing up as a child I remember my parents telling me don’t talk to yourself. I have heard that over the years and don’t know all the background behind it. I think most of us do talk to ourselves sometimes. A lot of times that’s negative self talk.
It could be just muttering or maybe just sounding out the sentences in our minds. Nevertheless it would not be unusual to hear someone talking to themselves. Sometimes people make fun of other’s self talk. Basically if our self talk is of a positive nature (and quite often it is not) it helps our self esteem and hurts our self esteem if of a negative nature. This applies to your thoughts too.
