    and insecurity is a big catalyst for depression.

    and no one wants to admit to beinf insecure

    because it's not okay.

    it's been made okay to lie to ourselves about our self value.

    self esteem has been made a joke.

    this is a portion of the puzzle, part of why depression is epidemic.

    Everyone feels afraid or insecure from time to time. Some people need help to over come things in their mind and it is okay to have feelings and to seek help for problems. It is a sign of strength to seek ways to solve problems rather than to fall and not get up.

    Everyone is insecure from time to time, yes. But not nearly everyone is bothered by those occasional insecurities. It all depends how insecure you are (and how often), and about what.
    As long as it's about something 'valid', far from chronic and seen in the right proportions it can be even healthy. If you let your insecurity control you, live every day with it and taking it out of context it will be a pretty good catalyst for depression indeed.

    I believe I am not insecure. I think I am not. Well, maybe sometimes. I wonder. Guess I shall have to ask someone if I am. What? No, I am not always certain. I am afraid that I am getting a bit unsure. Well, I am not depressed. I hate life, but I am happy about it. Or maybe I am not so depressed. If I dont feel bad all the time. I wonder who really is after me? I am afraid to ask anyone. I hate being a wimp. Now I am depressed.

    I am insecure, but I'm also strong enough to overcome the fears/worries that it brings....I understand that insecurity grows out of the mold society wants us to fit, and I think that once you realize that not fitting doesn't make you less of an acceptable being, a lot of the insecurities dissipate...
    I agree though, I think everyone is insecure to some degree- some people just cope with it better than others.

    To change the subject, is that lovely butt yours? A real beauty. You can't be insecure.

    I agree that most people really are insecure. I am not nearly as insecure after a year of psychiatric therapy!

    I think everyone is insecure too. I was just out on my balcony smoking a spliff with my husband, we kissed and I was imagining there was a paparazzi taking photos of us like they did britney&K fed. Isn't that ridiculous? I 'understand' my life or it feels more full when it has an imagined headline ie. 'Luxiebow smoking spliff on balcony 4months after giving birth to son Riloh' dajsfbaj, wtf? Am I crazy or just stoned lol
