Many of us can feel underestimated. You're excellent at work, but you may not be paid your worth, or your potential is not acknowledged. Your parents can't believe you made the dean's List. Some of your friends are surprised when you meet someone great.
These messages can be painful. When people underestimate us, they hold negative assumptions that can make us question our own abilities.

Similar ideas to Feeling underestimated
Keep your distance and don’t text, email, meet in person or call.
Cutting the ties for good when it’s over puts you on a faster path to healing.
Rather than dwelling on the things you can't control, try putting your effort into the things that you can.
Have a long commute to work? Try listening to audiobooks. Hurt your leg jogging? Try swimming. More often than not, we take the bad and let it hold us back when it doesn't have to.
Sometimes we think we're being rejected when that is not true. Not getting a lot of likes on a post or seeing your friends having fun without you can make you feel inadequate.
But you can use social media in a positive way.
