Does your confidence need a lift?

Some things in life feel like a breeze, while others squash your self-esteem. Tick what applies to you to help power up your weak spot…

YOUR SOCIAL LIFE

• Attending a party alone is my idea of hell
• I get jealous if my friends post photos of themselves online
• I’m worried I don’t know much about politics/arts/world affairs
• When I meet someone, I worry they'll find me boring
• If I haven’t seen a friend in ages, I worry we’re drifting apart

Ticked three or more?

Other people tend to make you feel inadequate. Try taking the focus off yourself and listen to what people have to say – really pay attention, it can blitz your own anxieties. Also, if social media gives you anxiety, simply reduce the time you spend on it. Remember, people only post the good stuff online.
