If you are surrounded by mostly intelligent and well-read people who do not in any way trample on your self-esteem, you will feel like a fulfilled and confident person.

A toxic environment, in turn, cultivates many fears and psychological defenses in a person, which will subsequently have to be worked through with a psychologist.

Experts also advise surrounding yourself with people who think positively. Healthy optimism is very effective in solving important life problems.
