3.2- Fluctuation
My self-esteem was kind of fluctuating when I was in the middle school. I was always cheer up and feel so great when I accomplished something great but when I failed at something, I would feel awful and being so negative about myself. For example, I was running in track & field, and then I got a first place, I feel so powerful and confidence but when I got second or third place, I was beating up myself by telling myself that I was no longer the best and never will. -
3.3- Social Comparison
In high school, I was transferred to deaf school and I was constantly comparing myself to other girls because they were more popular, prettier, skinnier, and everything that I was not. And I could see that everyone was always talk about them and I let myself down because I’ve never had that kind of attention before. In mainstream school, I wasn’t comparing myself because I couldn’t hear what people say and I was not really know anyone so I didn’t care until I went to deaf school.
