at times i feel so insecure that i question wether i should keep or delete a post. i've been dealing with insecurities most of my life. i think i dont see it as an enemy but i've always wondered where insecurities comes from. i also deal with social anxiety, general anxiety and panic attacks, not sure if they are interconnected somehow. i also tend to question my decisions, leaving me totally confused and wondering if i did the right thing..

does someone knows where insecurities come from?

Hi i have a few insecurities too, and for me I know they come from how I have been treated iver and over or ignored by those people who I asked for help, mental health UNprofessionals partly, parents partly, brother partly.
Each if these have abused me in some way mentally or physically so I would guess these types of situation can cause insecurities. Being told as a child you don't matter similarly.

It is possible that yours might be connected. I cant say for sure because I don't know your situation.
Have you tried writing things down to figure things out? Eg, I ask myself questions one by one (how are you feeling today/ whats happened to cause any anger /
I've got an app that i put some questions into awhile ago, and that helps me keep track of what hurt me and what painful event repeats. That one's called Q&A Diary, and

here's another, Thought diary,
it seems basic but they update regularly so take a look and see if it helps you?

Link, (Don't be put off by CBT thought diary name. I use it without therapy.
