Do you find yourself feeling anxious about oneself or a lack of confidence? Do you feel ugly, fat, boring, or foolish?
Insecurity is self-doubt or lack of confidence. Most of us sometimes feel insecure because of some reason.
Loneliness, experiences of failure or rejection, perfectionism and having critical family members, friends, or partners are some factors that contributed to everyone's' insecurities which lead to mental health issues such as depression,Β social anxiety,Β dementia, as well as lower self-confidence.
Dealing with our insecurities is one of the hardest things to do. So, the question is: How do we overcome this feeling?
Practicing self-approval and accepting our flaws is the best thing we can do in dealing with it. This might sound simple yet challenging. We oftentimes seeking approval from other people about our looks, fashion, or lifestyle for self-satisfaction because that is the norms we grown-up but instead of seeking others' approval, why don't we appreciate ourselves first? This helps us deal with our insecurities and it improves our self-confidence too.
Another thing to overcome insecurity is to avoid comparing ourselves to others. Comparing our looks and lifestyle to others is not good because this makes us feel self-pities and insecurities. So, the best thing to do is to count our blessing and always choose to be thankful and be happy for others' successes.
Lastly, if we receive any rejections don't be mad, demotivated, and feel insecure about others' achievements, instead we must use it as our motivation to be a better version of ourselves.
