I feel like I’m always wrong, or people make me feel like I’m always wrong. But of no one is ever always right, then surely no one could never always be wrong, could they?

That's just low self esteem distorting your thinking processes. That's the side effect of having low self-esteem, the self-loathing thinking you're always wrong. Once you increase your self-esteem your thoughts won't be as distorted and you won't experience as much self-loathing. The thing is, and you probably already know this, our feelings of self-worth are the same as our self-esteem. If you have low self-worth, you also have low self esteem.
Do you get any counseling for your low self-esteem? Cognitive Behavior Therapy (David Burns' books) is a life saver. Check out any of his books from your local library or try to get a free eBook online of his. Books | Feeling Good I constantly reread my Burns' books these days since the pandemic hit 5 months ago. The pandemic is detrimental to people's self-esteem due to the extreme levels of isolation which as we all know is not normal or healthy for anyone, let alone those of us who suffer with low self esteem, depression, and/or anxiety. Hope that doesn't sound too preachy or pedantic. |

What matters is that you feel that you are wrong. And this is subjective as our views of reality.
What matters is what do you you are getting yourself out of feeling that you are wrong. Sometimes, some defence mechanism remains when they are not suitable anymore but fir psychological reasons they do it. Are you feeling other people as if they are reproaching or blaming you for something? __________________ Social Anxiety and Depression. Cluster C traits. Trying to improve my English.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
