Do you have any insecurities? | INFJ Forum

Do you have any insecurities?

Quite a few, yes. It would be a long list. Maybe later.
 
I have a few, but my main ones are my body (I try to keep it as toned as possible), my appearance in general and I have a few obvious scars that I'm always conscious about.
 
Yes, competence, intelligence, etc.
 
Well.. To keep it short, I'm often insecure about whether or not I'm okay as a person. I'm insecure about whether or not I'm likeable. I also frequently question my own abilities. Now that doesn't sound too good. Yeah.. I'm a pretty insecure person overall.
 
I'm insecure about whether or not my friendship is something beneficial to another person. I worry that they put up with me for whatever reason -- it's different from person to person. It's quite sad, I don't think I felt this way until a few years ago...
 
Loads. Mostly about failure, perfectionism, living up to my own expectations, etc.
 
My insecurties...


  • Having few close friends
  • That I'll never make any real friends
  • Worried about being alone for the rest of my life
  • My experience with relationships and girls
  • Sex
  • Having control over my own life
  • Whether I can protect people and be there for and comfort people
  • That I'll never find someone who gives a shit about me
  • I don't think I own or hold anything of value
  • Feeling that people don't like me/ I'm unlikeable
  • Feeling that I'm incapable of being warm or caring
  • That I'm unlovable
  • That I don't deserve anything
  • That no matter how much I try to improve myself it'll never be enough
  • That I won't be able to reach the standards that I have set for myself
  • That I won't achieve my professional goals
  • My appearance
  • My ability in my chosen fields and how I stack up to others
  • Not living up to my own values / being a hypocrite
  • I worry that I am ultimately selfish even when I do things for others
 
I have struggled my entire life with a rare form of OCD called BDD. It has an 85% suicide rate, I have also been a cutter throughout my life because of my disorder. So ya, my insecurity is that I see myself distorted when I look in the mirror, my features are uneven on my face, and I dislike my nose. However, I do not have an eating disorder, my visual and cognitive distortion is based on asymetry. I term it as my 'visual szitsophrenia.

Main insecurity: Thinking that whatever I'm doing in my life is worthless.

Are you.. are you me?
Well, there are a lot of things you named I can recgonize in myself.

And Ria, here's an e-hug *e-hugs*

Last Dawn, I think that all the time <.< Damnit.
 
I have a ton. My main one is isolation and forced disconnection.

Thanks prankster
 
I am really petite. A lot of people think I am half Japanese. I feel really small around everyone else and feel that I will only be considered cutesy by everyone instead of pretty.

People are afraid to hug me, too. They think I will break. :m167:
 
Correction: Do you have many insecurities?
Yes.

-Whether or not I'm a good person, or just good at hiding how bad I am
-Whether or not my friends actually like me all that much
-My freaking hair. Yeah, moment of vanity.
-Notice my constant need to justify myself? Why do I owe everyone an explanation? Sigh...
-I almost automatically doubt that if I like someone they cannot like me back
 
I have a lot, and I can't really list them because they are a bit complex. Nevertheless, almost all of them stem from this one single (horrible) word:

Uncertainty.
 
I have plenty of insecurities. They just about all relate to the fear of rejection in some way.
