pride in how they look. Six Pillars of Self-Esteem explains pride very well. “Authentic pride has nothing in common with bragging, boasting, or arrogance. It comes from an opposite root. Not emptiness but satisfaction is its wellspring. It is not out to ‘prove’ but to enjoy” (Branden 40, 41). Khloe isn’t bragging about her transformation, she’s enjoying her outcome and expressing her pride in the way she looks with the…
Self-harm, or self-mutilation, is one of the most difficult human behaviors to understand and treat. Self harm has existed for several centuries and because of this, the definition has changed over time with research. According to Favazza and Rosenthal (1990) self-mutilation is defined as “the deliberate destruction or alteration of body tissue” (p. 77).

For example, I'm currently in a conflict where I have to choose between two schools. In this conflict, I'm the loser because I entered the conflict. The reason I consider myself the…
