STORY Time Insecurities

#storytime #lemon8contest #addressinginsecurities #Lemon8Diary #letschat #insecurities #lemon8partner

So, I am going to be honest, I truly dislike myself and I have trying to work on it but it hurts when you are never the girl approaches or asked out. It affects how you feel about self when people tell you they like you but aren’t ready for you, like what does that mean.

Idk having the surgery really has put me in my head and forced me to figure out why it is I hate the way I look and most of it has to do with me and my perception of myself.

... Read moreInsecurities can often feel overwhelming, shaping our self-esteem and influencing our interactions with others. Understanding the root of these feelings is vital for healing. Many individuals experience insecurity due to societal pressures, unrealistic beauty standards, or past experiences that left scars on our self-worth. Talking about our challenges helps reduce the stigma surrounding these topics and empowers others to share their stories as well. Seeking support from friends, family, or a professional can be crucial in navigating these feelings. Remember, it's okay to seek help; every small step toward self-acceptance is significant. Engaging in activities that promote self-love, such as journaling or participating in communities, can also significantly enhance your mental well-being. Each person's journey is unique, and learning to love oneself is an ongoing process. Embrace your story, and know that you're not alone in facing these challenges.

It’s honestly so sad that you think you need any surgery and that’ll make someone want you. Take it from someone who’s never had confidence and has begged people to love me. It sounds cringe but it’s true. It hurts like hell to not feel good enough. Try meditation and tell yourself every day you are worth it. You’re -

The reality is that now a days there's people who have had some type of cosmetic procedure done and it's getting harder to conform with natural beauty and all it's flaws so it's okay to feel that way just remember that we're all supposed to look different & be unique

Nothing, nothing goes away. It’ll surely pop up at another time. Insecurities can show up in friendships, your service to God, and romantic relationships. The word insecurity is not a positive word. Christ’s grace can be glorified in our weakness; yet he also gives us the power to overcome thro

Avoidant Insecurities
Avoidants are always moving in protection of self. You take it as a personal attack because it’s hurting your feelings but it was never about you. It was always about them not allowing people to get too close. Because being too close means that you could “find them out.”
