Are you struggling with your self-esteem?

Self-Esteem Quiz for Teens

This self-check can help teens reflect on confidence, self-worth, comparison, body image, criticism, and how they see themselves. This is not a diagnosis.

Important: If low self-worth includes thoughts of self-harm, not wanting to live, or feeling unsafe, tell a trusted adult immediately. In the U.S., call or text 988 for crisis support.
