hypnosis will help with this low confidence ,self esteem issues  

Answer 2

There's a few things I have to say:

1) As far as the insults go--I would tell her to have confidence in herself and learn to truly love and appreciate herself, because when you do so insults don't bother you much, if at all. So I think that's a bit of a self-image issue there.

2) Define "overly excited." Does anyone kill themselves over being "too happy"? I would say that unless she's experiencing huge mood swings suddenly--going from super sad to super happy at the snap of a finger--this one isn't an issue.

3) Could be hormones, us females have wacky hormones at times, maybe see a doctor and tell him/her about the mood swings, assuming there are mood swings.

4) Try psychotherapy. She can get to the root of what is causing her to react like this, assuming that it isn't due to hormones or some other physical cause.

Good luck, honey. ;)

First I believe she must learn to identify which ever emotion she is experiencing at the time...thoughts associated with the emotion ...and learn to acknowledge and accept her emotions...truely feel them and the thoughts and believes that go with them...it is my hope that in time she will learn to experience her emotions in a more heathly way..and be able to express them in such a way that her drama does not drain those around her..it can be done..hang in there
