I don't have enough self confidence and its negatively affecting me.
------snip-------
I am feeling the effects of having low self estime and low self confidence.
I did really badly in my last math exam because I compulsively check my answers around 15 times.
When someone says something insulting to me I really believe it.
I really want to be able to believe in myself,but somehow I can't
So,how can I raise my self confidence?
popularity is overrated
stop giving a fuck and become a badass
don't let yourself get bullied. it's not that hard.

I thought low self esteem and confidence was always detrimental.

Oh yeah and stand up for yourself, and if it's just incessant verbal abuse, ignore it. If it doesn't have any effect on you, bullies will stop trying to get a kick out of you.
Edit: You're your own person, nobody can tell you what you are. Insults are nothing at all when you stop making a big deal about it.
Here is what I did I used blind courage to ask out a girl. Even though I got reject after that its been a nice up hill slope.
There is no guide, noone here can help you. You've decided for yourself that you have no self-confidence and no text based anonymous reply will help you whatsoever.
There's a hint somewhere here, find it and act on it.
If you want a social life, Facepunch is not for you.

I decide on my self confidence?

This is facepunch, you will not find anything of that kind here.
Take a shower, get a haircut, ignore everything else and you'll be fine.

yes. stop giving a fuck what people think. realize that the kids you go to school with are pathetic, worthless drones. you don't want to be one of them, do you?
Whoever they are, you'll probably be their boss someday. Or janitor. Either one is fine by me.
get a 6 pack, pretty hard to feel bad about yourself with a 6 pack.
as stated in the previous million threads about "wah wah low self confidence", eat worms

Yeah, some people aren't worth offering your time to.

Get more Vitamin D.
Vitamin D raises self confidence.
Take solace in the fact that there's probably someone out there who's even more useless than you.

Or maybe there isn't idk.

Not everyone on Facepunch has no social life. It's severely over-exaggerated.
Edit: I should probably give a word of advice as well, if this is true. Most people insult others if they want to feel better about themselves, or if the insulted has some actual problems. In your case, I think it's the former. I wouldn't believe everything they say, or at least not take it seriously. All it does is bring you down. And then they'll stop, because it'll be like trying to insult a doll that doesn't answer back.

I get straight A's but my self confidence is at a low.
But Vitamin D helps me get through the week.
So get more Vitamin D.
Find something you like to do. It can be a sport, reading, drawing, singing, being good at a subject.
Knowing that you can at least do something, would definitely help. The only thing is that staying locked in a room isn't going to help you out in any way.
Also, every single individual have their own issues to deal with. No one out there cares as much as you think they do.
Close friends would definitely help when going through school, but what is most important is for you to be self-dependent. If someone is going to knock you down, you need to get right back up and continue moving forward. If you end up breaking down, people are going to see an opening to exploit that weakness to feel better about themselves.
Through that people will be drawn to you. Don't expect to get friends by sitting around in a corner, whining about how life is unfair.
on a darker note, it's hard for me to make friends with anybody who i think is dumber than me, which is the majority of kids who go to my school.

It's more of a joke on the forums anyway. I doubt anyone honestly believes that everyone that browses Facepunch is a nerdy antisocial fuck. I have a good social life personally.
Become "scene" and cut zebra stripes into yourself with your mom's razor blade.
It's the only way to feel anything anymore ;_;
