Sentence 1- Sentence P introduces the subject of the paragraph that is low self-esteem. The first line of every paragraph should introduce the subject and this is what sentence P does here.

Sentence 2- Sentence R is next in sequence as it is a continuation of the previous sentence. This evident from the words ‘if you feel like this’, sentence P was about how low esteem makes us feel about ourselves, and sentence R refers to the exact same feeling.

Sentence 3- Sentence S is next in sequence as it elaborates the effects of low esteem, just like sentence R did.

Sentence 4- The last sentence should always round off the paragraph and that is why sentence Q is last in the sequence. It rounds off whatever has been said in the previous sentences.

Hence, the correct order is PRSQ and the correct answer is option 1.
