Well Man City, for all their millions spent, did well today, didn’t they?
Took and englishman to keep them in the game!
Harry Redknapp said last week he feared not being able to compete because of City’s huge spending power.
Don’t fear Harry, it’s not how much money you have, it’s whether you can make your individuals into a team and Harry’s team made City’s individuals look very ordinary.
Not sure if I am talking round in circles now….if I disappear up my own behind in a flurry of pretentious twaddle forgive me!!!
You’re forgiven but I don’t think your “talk a lot friend” suffers from depression. Perhaps they just say that as the illness they actually suffer from is embarrasing to them.

Self confidence is a part of self esteem but is different.
Self confidence is where you believe in your ability to do something, and you can be confident about your ability to do some things and not others. So you might have high confidence in your ability to do your job, but have low confidence in your ability to make small talk at a social event.
Self esteem is your sense of your own personal worth, how you feel about being the person you are rather than what you can accomplish. Accomplishments do contribute to self esteem but are a small part of it. Self esteem also comes from your perception of yourself, which can be affected by how you see your self, your body image, how you behave around other people, how they behave around you, what happens to you in your life and so on.
Low self-esteem has a far greater impact than low self confidence; it affects your relationships with other people, how you react to events in your life (which in turn can impact your self esteem), your mental and physical health etc.
Minim you talk about depression as someone who has seen others suffering from it but not suffered yourself…would that be a fair assumption?

Hmmmm that’s not what depression does, and I’m talking from experience.
That’s Narcissistic personality disorder or paranoia.

But certainly not depression.
I disagree, I think depressives put up barriers and retreat as a form of self defence. In this mode, everything from outside is heightened and taken out of context. Perhaps there are elements of paranoia and narcissism in low self-esteem, as a result of the depression? I think depression can cause some people to retreat into their shell so that they don’t have to deal with other people, a consequence of this is that they over react to everything people say or do. I do think adolescents go through that as a matter of course, worrying what their peer group are saying about them etc. But, is that a lack of self confidence and life experience? Now ok, what is the difference between lacking self-confidence and having a low self-esteem? That one I am not clear on.
Actually, having read that wikepedia link, I think the one below is more like the person Toy describes:

*strokes rubes* :wink:

That’s a contradiction! People with depression do retreat into their shell and lack of communication is the outcome!
They don’t “over react to everything” they in fact, don’t react to anything!
My mother and my ex husband both suffered with severe depression and neither spoke to anyone for weeks.
I myself suffered with mild depression which resulted in ignoring people. I didn’t want to socialise, mix with people at work, as well as displaying a lot of the symptoms listed here:
http://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Depression/Pages/Symptoms.aspx
In later life, my mother developed narcissistic personality disorder. That was a living hell for many years as rather than not wanting to communicate she was the complete opposite with rage, temper tantrums and extreme selfishness being the norm.

I do live in France, but quite obviously I have a flat in London! – lived in that area for 25 years! – I know what I am talking about!
I’m glad you know what you’re talking about. On another thread you said it was only 20 years, lol.
