insecurities

[pineinchneis]

do other peoples insecurities affect their lives as much as me? when i see people around school i don't look at them because i don't want them to think im staring, when i see the 'cool' people, i completely avoid eye contact with them because i feel inadequate compared to them, in class i worry about the way i sit, how i have my arms (folded etc.), and i don't answer questions in case i stumble my words or get the answer wrong.
it seems like my insecurities are destroying my life and i just don't know what to do anymore...

Everyone's insecure, just some people can hide it more.
I often avoid eye contact or conversation with popular/fit kids, cos I'm insecure about my weight, looks, and other stuff.
But you just need to get some courage. Be confident it won't go wrong. :)

For every insecurity you have, try to come up with a positive thing instead. Instead of stating "eeeew I hate my nose" you can maybe make peace with another facial feature like "ooh, I have pretty eyes" or "I have cute ears" or something. I wish you the best of luck. I am a rather insecure person so I don't have much advice but you can overcome this. I believe you can.
