text: what should i do to highly build my self confidence and have a winer feeling in every way?   well, a good therapist can help you find the self-confidence that you need but if you just can't bring yourself to see a professional, try volunteering.  i'm sure you have a number of opportunities in your area--visiting nursing homes, working in a shelter, etc.  it's amazing what a sense of purpose you can get by donating just a few hours a week to something like that.  are you surrounded by people who keep you down or cause you to question yourself?  distance yourself from them.  this can be hard--especially if we're talking about your parents but sometimes you just need to say "you know, i'm not going to listen to any more of that" and walk away.  good luck!
