Help building self-esteem!

Sorry if I have placed this in the wrong section!

Long story short, I have really low self-esteem. It’s affecting my mental health and overall health too.

What are some good ways to build self-esteem? Tips? Books? Etc

EDIT:
I have suffered with low self-esteem my whole life due to intense bullying from primary school age. I was in and out of school as my Dad was terminally unwell and then passed away.

The bullying stopped in secondary school but it’s really stuck with me. I now have two daughters and I want to be better for me and them.

Thank you!

I’m sorry that you’ve had a tough time. Volunteering would be a great place to start. There may be a local volunteering signposting organisation that can link up your skills and available time with opportunities.

@Wildspace Thank you! That’s a great idea to start.
