This is NOT supposed to be some weird whiny emo shit:
Does anyone else feel that, they wouldn't want to be with anyone that would want to be with them because your self esteem is so shot?
Like "Ick they must be REALLY fucked in the head to want to touch ME"
Ya know?
How does this make sense to someone.
Someone shrink my head yo
Who else has crazy self esteem issues? What do you often tell yourself or believe about yourself?

Sounds quite 'excessive', for lack of better word, but it's quite calming. Overall, my self-esteem is quite good. There's just those times when something's bound to go wrong.
That will work temporarily, but really all you are doing is avoiding the problem.
OP, I have never personally felt like that, but I understand what you are saying and it isn't that uncommon. In fact, I once fancied a girl who thought exactly that. It didn't work out, and I don't have much good advice, but I can tell you, what might work (Did for her self-esteem) is to just sit, breathe, and think everything is the way it is suppose to be, and in the end, everything will work out right. Do that every time you feel overwhelmed or really down on yourself and then pick up and go with the flow of things.
Of course. I do it mainly to calm myself before stressful situations such as an interview. Afterwards, I'm able to look back and say "Hey, that wasn't so bad."
It's a decent way to get around self-esteem problems at times, but as you said, it is by no means a permanent, long term fix.
