Pisces Paradox

Pisces Problem 

Problem:I'm an extremely sensitive Pisces, with low self-esteem. People's comments can often put me down, even if they're just joking! I have a lot of anxiety, and tend to be hypersensitive of the way people treat me. I've heard people say Pisces often seek approval... is that true of me?
Yes, if you can relate to this, you're probably looking for approval in others. I think this is very, very common in Pisces. Especially those of us who have low self-esteem! It's like if we feel we've done poorly on a school assignment, like an essay, but a classmate reads it over and says you've done a good job. Pisces, especially those with low self-esteem, tend to be very unsure of themselves. So, looking outward for a sense of approval seems to be a very natural thing for the fish to do. However, I'm going to stress to you how very unhealthy this can be! A pat on the back and encouraging words can make anyone feel a little better, but I think many Pisces become dependent on this. In result, we can become very sensitive to the comments/criticism (even constructive criticism) of others, because we've essentially given our self-esteem to others. By this, I of course mean we've given others the ability to "rate" our self-esteem with what they have to say. And, Pisces, you can't be everyone's cup of tea! In fact, many people find you confusing and difficult. So, it's not very wise to fall into that type of behavior.
Solution:Start looking for approval within yourself. Don't look at others to tell you if what you've done, or who you are, is "good" or "acceptable." If you can start looking inward, instead of outward, the comments of others should start to affect you less and less. Now, I'm not saying your self-esteem will magically improve— and nothing is ever "cut and dry," but if you can manage to stop constantly looking at others for guidance, and provide your own structure, this may be the first step you need towards overall self-esteem improvement.
