I'm sure that everybody probably feels insecure about something. I do I am insecure about my face a bit, but that's really the only thing. I know that I should learn how to love myself, but it can be really hard at times. Insecurities are normal though were human so we experience these a lot through out our lives. We just have to learn to be happy with ourselves and that we have done enough. Well do you feel insecure about yourself and why do you feel like that?

I have never been a very confident person when I was a child I was mega shy and I guess to be honest I was never the cleverest kid so I guess I grew up feeling a little insecure and although I have become a lot more confident within myself sometimes it does creep back that maybe I am just not good enough...

Oh that's sad that you don't feel that you are good enough, but I am sure that you are. I know were your coming from I also used to be really shy that I would not want to say a single word, but I have gotten a bit more talkative then back then. We will just have to try and hopefully be accepted for it.

I feel insecure with my tummy. I'm not overweight and but my stomach looks really weird. I have had caesarian section and my gal bladder removed because of too much gal stones. So can you imagine what my tummy looks like? LOLLLLL

anime 123 my overweight makes me feel insecure as I feel ugly with the overweight but I have a nice face and pretty eyes and hair. but I feel bad that I am so overweight. I am trying to lose and its very hard as I am slightly physically handicapped and cannot walk like I used to to take off weight.

That's unfortunate, I hope that you will find a way to lose weight and to feel great about yourself. That's nice that you are pretty though that's something that you can feel good about your self.

Hi Anime ! Everyone says that I am very very good looking.Makes me happy that time but insecure about how I will look when I am old.Wont I miss these compliments.So you see we all have some reason to be insecure. So , we have to love ourselves.Accepting ourselves as we are , living in the present.Learn that beauty is not just skin deep (though having a beautiful skin doesn't harm one).To overcome this one should increase their self-worth.Have a mission in life and work towards it.

Yes I also feel insecure sometimes. And yes you are right, I need to love myself and accept it for what it is. It's our nature to get insecure sometimes BUT if you feel that you are ALWAYS insecure, then there must be something wrong. We can overcome this! YES we can! :)

Yes, I feel that at times especially when we talk about weight. I'm not fat. Just heavy in the middle - my tummy. I learned my lesson to be confident when I see people who are heavier than me who are strutting their stuff well. Since then, I made it a point to look well-dress and walk with dignity. Fat or not. That way, I gain the respect of those around me. The important thing is not the physical appearance but what can be found inside you - kindness and intelligence.

Yes it's always good that you walk with dignity and showing that you are proud to be the person you are. That's the way to go.
