Managing self-esteem is challenging enough without also living through a pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has made coping with self-esteem and mental health issues even more difficult. As with so many mental health issues, one way to maintain healthy self-esteem when dealing with other challenges is by combatting the negative self-talk with more logical, positive talk. When negative thoughts flood your mind, force them out and give your self-confidence a lift. Self-esteem transcends the routine "ups and downs" linked with situations in life. Self-esteem is much more fundamental -- shaping reality and consequently impacting your overall quality of life. Building and repairing self-esteem during difficult times such as a pandemic is challenging. Take time to come to grips with the new situations in life and accept new opportunities and new limitations. Be willing to make mistakes and see them as learning opportunities, not failures. Use this time to break old, destructive habits, and replace them with healthier habits that will help rebuild and reinforce your self-esteem.
