I deal with mine by having a go at people for poor sentence construction.
I know it is bad, but it makes me feel better

I used to be very self-conscious until one day a friend said to me, "You know, people are not just waiting around for your to mess up. They are usually thinking about themselves, not you."
I realized the truth of it, and that everyone has insecurities, even if they don't act like it. I learned to accept what I couldn't change and change what I couldn't accept in myself. We live in a culture that sells us stuff by making us feel insecure so we will buy their product to "make it better." But peace with yourself is an internal process that takes time, experience, reflection, honesty, and insight. Sometimes, if we have been damaged by abuse or dysfunction, it can help to get professional support/therapy to heal.
Comparing yourself to others is a trap. You never know what is really going on in another's life. Appearances can be deceiving. Instead, just be the best you can be, and know that that is enough. Stay open to growing and learning, and you will progress.

"Everybody has their insecurities" The fact that you have understood this is the very important and first step that you have already taken in working through yours. Just write down what is making you insecure and what are the remedies that are available for you point by point. Try each one out and see what suits your situation best.
I am insecure about my looks. What I did was, I wrote down what I hated most about my looks. And what I hated most was being overweight. So I sat and thought about the remedies like losing weight, eating less, trying to be happy at whatever stage I am and always telling myself, I am okay..there are people around who are having even worse conditions. Such postive suggestions have helped me overcome my insecurity..Try it...good luck

I am insecure about many things. i tried avoiding going into situations that would aggravate my insecurities, but that has over time made me worse and I'm a tad reclusive. However I'm beginning to just get out there and get on with it! councillors say avoidance is not the way. and most of the time I exaggerate and aggravate the situation.
I think you just learn to accept who you are gradually as you mature.
there is a book called 'feel the fear and do it anyway' which is great for anxiety issues.
knowing that most people are only concerned about themselves and their own issues, helpes me.
Good luck

I try my best to share some of my problems about certain insecurities with a trusted friend. Eventhough he might not be able to give me a viable solution to these insecurities... but just knowing that someone is willing to lend me a listening ear and hear about it really helps me to deal with these insecurities with more determination.
