Low self esteem, the biggest source of problems?

Posted by Michael83 on July 6, 2006, at 23:36:54

I know that most of my problems are a result of lack of self esteem. I am terrified to trust my own judgement, primarily when in comes to my fear of death and the afterlife.
Another minor problem (atleast compared to the first one), is my lack of ability to deal with girls. Although I'm very good looking, intelligent, dress well, super considerate, I am terrified to approach a girl. I think constantly "why would she want to give me the time of the day?"
Despite feeling like I can take on the world sometimes and being a huge fan of author/philosopher Ayn Rand, I still find myself paralyzed by low self esteem, especially in spiritual (my intense fear of death) and social issues (fear of rejection by a girl).
Does anyone else agree with me that the lack of self esteem is the primary source of psychological problems in most people?
