[Essay] Being stooped to abasement

[honeyhoney]

Is it right to say "She always stoops herself to abasement.", for someone who for example does begging, does bad deeds to achieve her goals?

"She always stoops herself to abasement."

That's a very unnatural sentence. I am not even sure what you are trying to say.

 

[JMurray]

Perhaps: "She's prepared to demean herself to get what she wants".

Yes I want to say that.

I mean she saves her self-esteem.

If she is prepared to demean herself, she is certainly not saving her self-esteem.

Oh yes! Sorry.
I wanted to say "she doesn't save her self-esteem."

She lacks/has no self-esteem?

I exactly mean what JMurray said:

Perhaps: "She's prepared to demean herself to get what she wants".
