I noticed that a lot of people who have this problem also have difficulties expressing their emotions (especially the bad ones) for fear if losing those "relationships" I put that in quotes because I don't think people who can't express their own emotions can have meaningful relationships.

How to help people to love themselves and feel confident? I don't think you can care and love others if you don't do that first with yourself.

I love this! It doesn't have to be one or the other. Have empathy for yourself and then towards others.

I have found way more difficult to do the exercise of finding out where all my struggles come from, than to find them in others. I think that's the main reason people care more about others than themselves, it just easier. Each time I think about it I get to the same conclusion. Do you think that's the reason? We always look for the easiest path? Or is there other reason.

How can you get the skills and confidence to look into your own emotions?
