Understanding Your Sense of Self

You are the most important person in your life! You take yourself everywhere you go, you are in your own head, and you have conversations with yourself. If you’re finding that, most times, these conversations aren’t going well, it is time to evaluate your sense of self. How you speak to yourself and the way you view yourself impacts your life in so many ways. Keep reading to learn more about how your sense of self impacts you, how to improve it, and the one self-help app to help guide the way.

What is My Sense of Self?

Your sense of self refers to your perception of the collection of characteristics that define you, according to Healthline. Personality traits, abilities, likes and dislikes, your belief system or moral code, and the things that motivate you — these all contribute to your self-image or your unique identity as a person. People who can easily describe these aspects of their identity typically have a fairly strong sense of who they are. Struggling to name more than a few of these characteristics might point to a less-defined sense of self. You may not spend much time consciously thinking about your identity, but it still affects your life. Knowing who you are allows you to live with purpose and develop satisfying relationships, both of which can contribute to overall good emotional health.

If you have a negative sense of self, it can severely complicate how you relate to other people. This is especially true toward people who have a more positive sense of self, form meaningful relationships, and becoming vulnerable to others.
