Insecure by Teen101 March 1, 2016
a personal character trait that is considered detrimental to mental health, due to its association with stress and anxiety. An insecure person may or may not lack their own self-worth, rather they feel overriding doubt that they can pursue a task to its conclusion without moral support. This may be linked to events in the past that have caused them to lose confidence due to negative feedback or ridicule in social or personal circumstances. These criticisms are usually personal in nature. Insecurity is a trait that often precedes an act but it may disappear during its performance and reappear after its completion, as many artists such as Judy Garland would testify.
I feel so insecure about my voice and appearance before I go on stage but as soon as I am in front of an audience I come alive.

An insecure person is someone who just feels like they need to compare themselves to others. They think that if they tell themselves that they are good enough that it will come true. What they don't know is that they are already good enough. They will see themselves as less than perfect, and hate themselves for it. If you or a friend is like this, know that you or them are amazing the way they are. If they see it or not.

When you feel like you're not good enough, you spend hours trying to look your best. You push people away because you're used to being used and people turning their backs. You lie, not about things to seem cool but you lie about being okay. Even if asked repeatedly you still say "youre fine " . people of all ages can suffer with it. And they tend to be the people who are the most caring.
