ummmm D0NT THINK THAT WAY! think positive like if you get an 82 on a final then say Hey that is pretty good. That means I knew 82 percent of everything I learned in that subject this year!
GET IT! just think positive!!
HOPE I HELPEDDD

Confidence and self-esteem are totally mental. Start thinking better things about yourself. Hang around with positive friends and stuff like that. I'm sure you're so not that bad to the point you have to feel that way. Just remember that confidence starts with how YOU feel about YOURSELF. Hope i helped!!!

ok i kno this might sound dumb but trust me i used to be the shyest most self consious person when i was younger and now im freshman class vice president. Now many people will tell you to write down a list of things you lke about yourself because my mom told me that a hundred times. Wel you can do that if you like but what i did was start coomplimnting others around you who are self conscious and then in turn theyd compliment me so we'd make each other feel better. I know it may seem weird or whatever but just tryit it works becasue that ways everybody is hleping everybody feel better about themselves.

You know, a lot of people will tell you to write down a list of things you like about yourself, but if you have no self esteem then the problem is you don't have anyhting you like about yourself!
Instead, I suggest that you go shopping with a good friend and get a few outfits that you love and will feel good or even *sexy* wearing. Then get a manicure and maybe your hair done.
If you don't like yourself. people will be able to tell and will know you're not self confident so try and like yourself the way you are, because your friends do!!!

i used to have that problem...then i decided to change it...i asked my friends that once a day if they could give me a compliment and one thing that i could change about myself for the better. i listened to their compliments and that made me happy and more confident. and i changed gradually what they told me to change untill they couldnt find anything else to change. but the only problem that i found was i had to really trust my friends...i also kept in my head "i dont care what anyone thinks of me and if they have a problem with me i dont care." i also wrote that down and put it in my locker. when someone made fun of me i held my head high never made it look like they hurt me in any way and i always found something inperfect with them and when i got home i had a list and i put their name and what i found and i thought of it every time they made fun of me.
NOTE: some people in this world are out to make you miserable thats what makes them stronger and more "powerful" than you. so ALWAYS look them in the eye even if your about to cry...(thats what i always did and it worked)

first list all your good qualities on a paper im sure you have so many of them
dont let any one ever bring you down and if any one ever says anything mean about you ignore it because your so much better then them
do things that make you happy / things that make you feel good like hobbies
get into some afterschool activities that might interest you
go out and have fun with your friends and remember when they hang out with you that just shows what a fun/great person you are and they enjoy your company

Trust me, everyone has felt like this at one time or another. But dont hate yourself. I highly doubt you are truly that bad. Focus on your good points instead of your bad. Believe people when they compliment you, even if it is your mom. Sometimes, all it takes is a new hair cut/do or a new outfit that you feel makes you look really good, and realize youre not as bad as you thought.
