Your results indicate that you seem to have a very low opinion of yourself. You tend to put yourself down a lot, falling victim to your own self-depreciating statements. Essentially, you are suffering from a lack of self-worth, an issue that many people encounter at some point in their lives. A weakened sense of self-worth can result from a wide range of factors: perhaps you've recently gone through a particularly difficult period in your life, or you didn't get the support you needed from others when you were growing up. The important thing however, is not to figure out who/what is to blame; it is to recognize that it's now up to you to boost your self-image. There are certain attitudes and beliefs that have been found to contribute to and "feed" a negative self-image, and you appear to have a lot of them. Examples would be believing that you don't deserve to be loved or respected, believing that you're not good enough for someone, and focusing only on your perceived faults rather than good qualities. While you may not necessarily feel all of these things all of the time, they are ingrained in your mindset to the point that they are surely affecting your life. You may not even realize it, but these beliefs can discourage you from pursuing your goals, cause you unnecessary stress, and even become self-fulfilling prophecies. A change in mindset could make all the difference in the world.

jeez, I never knew it was that bad

Did I take this before? I can't remember, but it wouldn't hurt to take it again.

I scored 63.

Your results indicate that your sense of self-worth is fairly healthy. You rarely put yourself down or fall victim to self-depreciating statements. There are certain attitudes and beliefs that have been found to contribute to and "feed" a positive self-image, and you appear to have many of them. Examples would be believing that you deserve to be loved or respected, believing that you're good enough for someone, and focusing on your good qualities rather than only your perceived faults. While you may not necessarily feel all of these things all of the time, your opinion of yourself is generally quite positive. This is a healthy attitude to have, as a poor sense of self-worth can hold you back from pursuing your goals, cause you unnecessary stress, and even become self-fulfilling prophecies.

Self-Esteem Test

Self-esteem is essential to our ability to function in a healthy way. Without the foundation of a solid sense of self, we are unable to take the risks and make the decisions necessary to lead a fulfilling, productive life. Low self-esteem can corrode our love lives, careers, family bonds, and most importantly, our internal sense of well-being.

You tend to be rather worried about being rejection by others. As a result, you may often find yourself bending over backwards to make sure you get and keep other people's approval. Rejection by the people in your life would be a serious blow to your self-esteem, and may be something you have experienced before. It's important for you to realize, as difficult as it may be, that the only approval you should be worried about is your own - and that the potential for rejection actually starts with you. In essence, if you don't respect and approve of yourself all that much, you project an image to others that says "I am not worthy, I am not good enough for you", which can result in the very rejection that you fear.

So true...

The potential of being rejected by others as a result of who you are or what you do tends to be at the back of your mind. Although you may not live with the constant fear of being tossed away by people in your life, you may sometimes go out of your way to attain the approval of others. And this approval does matter to you, at least to some degree. Rejection by the people in your life may not shatter your self-image, but it would be quite a blow that could lead to self-doubt, discouragement, and humiliation. Realize that the only approval you should be worried about is your own - and that the potential for rejection actually starts with you. If you don't fully respect and approve of yourself, you project an image to others that says "I am not worthy, I am not good enough for you", which can result in the very rejection you fear.

Ability to Deal with Rejection- 10/100

The potential of being rejected by others as a result of who you are or what you do is constantly on your mind. You likely go out of your way to attain the approval of others. Rejection by the people in your life would be a serious blow to your self-esteem, and may be something you have experienced before. While this may be a difficult concept to swallow, you need to realize that the only approval you should be worried about is your own - and that the potential for rejection starts with you. If you don't respect and approve of yourself, you project an image to others that says "I am not worthy, I am not good enough for you", which can result in the very rejection you fear.

Dunno what the other things would say. Mostly those tests assume you really are successful and good at everything, you just don't know it. What if you are realistic like me and think I do have a mental handicap that makes it hard for me in life and makes me have to try much harder and mess up even though I don't mean to?

I don't hate myself for those traits. I just wish I was more talented in general coping and had better health and stamina and focusing skills...
Thanks for this!

You generally don't concern yourself too much about being rejected by others, although it does cross your mind from time to time. However, you don't really seem to be the type to bend over backwards in order to get and keep other people's approval - at least not too often. Rejection by the people in your life may very well hurt you and may be something you have experienced before, but you try not to let it affect how you feel about yourself. Although you likely know this, the only approval you should be worried about is your own. Moreover, when you respect and approve of yourself, you are more likely to project an image to others that says "I am worthy, and I am have much to offer to someone."

hmmm.

It only gives a snapshot, basically one part of the full report.

I don't think the full report is worth paying for at this stage.
