Self-abuse and low self esteem provoke inability to appreciate one's worthiness. The talents will continue to be undermined. Distorted body image. Psychosomatic problems, overweight, inability to fulfill the needs. Lacking confidence, fear of being hurt interrupt motivation to find a stable and loving relationships People tend to unwittingly replicate the abusive early experience
