In the mid 1960s Morris Rosenberg and the social-learning theorists defined self-esteem in terms of a stable sense of personal worth or worthiness. BuildingSelf-esteem is essential for everyone’s emotional health. People with a steady and stable sense of self-worth are better able to take care of themselves in the face of negative emotions and can handle stress. They’re well-adjusted, and they feel better in general.Low self-esteem is a factor of anxiety and depression which makes it more difficult to find recovery and move on with their lives.
