What is self-esteem?
Self-esteem is your overall sense of your own worth and capability. It shapes your confidence, your relationships, how you handle criticism and how quickly you recover from setbacks. Contrary to popular belief, it is not a fixed trait: it is a skill that can be built and strengthened over time.
Self-esteem and neurodivergence
Many people with ADHD, autism or high sensitivity carry lower self-esteem after years of criticism, misunderstanding or masking. The gap between the effort they make and the recognition they receive wears down their sense of worth. Understanding this pattern helps replace self-criticism with clarity and self-compassion.
