    Is it weird that I don't want to change my low self esteem?

    When a friend on the phone asked me if self esteem would be something I would like to change I told her that question made me uncomfortable. I'm used to having low self esteem and it's way too complicated to change. I feel I don't deserve good self esteem.

    Is it weird that I never want to see a therapist, counselor or physiatrist because I don't want them telling me how to feel?

    My low self esteem to me doesn't feel like a lie. When a friend on the phone asked me if self esteem would be something I would like to change I told her that question made me uncomfortable.

    Low self esteem is both a problem and a state of health. And I don't like it but I'm used to it.

    I have low self esteem and the idea of therapy is too complicated. Plus I deserve to have low esteem.

    So I have low self esteem. Is it weird that I never want to see a therapist, counselor or physiatrist because I don't want them telling me how to feel about myself? If they did, things wouldn't go well in the appointment.

    Do any of you not bother going to autism groups? I used to in the past but I haven't had tons of progress making friends.

    I'm not sure how large of a city. But you could look up Asperger or autism on meetup.com However, when I went to a virtual autism group I didn't enjoy it at all.

    I only made one friend in Asperger group years and I would like more friends but I don't go groups because making friends is too complicated for me. I even tried making friends in Special Olympics but I didn't fit in.
