It sounds like you have walked a rough road, maybe you confidence muscle is ready for rehab rather than marathons. Don't get down on yourself for not being fully confident right away. It's a journey, take it in small steps. You are currently in treatment which is a fantastic and huge step! That took courage. If confidence is like a muscle, courage is like those protein drinks that athletes drink before a big work out. Courage is the building blocks of confidence. Celebrate that right now you are doing the best thing you can to take a big step toward the confident woman you want to be. This is a very good thing! You have a big hill to climb but i believe that you can do it, one step at a time with God by your side. Jazz, Confidence is a like a muscle, with work, it grows.

There have been times I have been confident without thinking about it.. until I lost it. I have had multiple traumatic experiences through out my entire life. I am 24yrs old now and I have gone through a divorce, been through domestic abuse,child abuse,molestion,poverty..I have a mentally ill mother and no father.. and a list of other things. People have always told me that I am very beautiful, but at this point I hardly believe any compliment. I have become extremely insecure because I have an OK paying job.. I cant sleep at night so it makes it very difficult to go back to school. I have started this treatment for my trauma called EMDR. Send a prayer my way... The end of this article made me cry. I will keep my chin up because I AM the daughter of a king after all of the trials and tribulations. :) I have always struggled with my confidence.

Self-talk is such a strong indicator of how we really see ourselves and it is worthwhile evaluating it at times to really see what we think about ourselves.

Thank you for such a wonderful & an attitude changing remark! It's truly a blessing to see yoursel with a positive eye at an instant other than dissolving in negativity as I was previously.
