Some or even most feelings come from a past experiences that we’re not treated or these might even be suppressed feelings from childhood years. You need to have some closure on some issues so you can start one day at a time. Have some thoughts on what you want, what you exactly feel and why do these things happen.
When things are unbearable you can also seek some counsel from professionals.

i know how you feel. Advice someone gave me is its ok if u din’t trust those around you but at least try to trust yourself. Is there anything that has happened to you to make you feel like this? Even if you don’t feel confident try and appear confident so people think you are and that will make you feel more confident.

I had this feeling so many times with my friends… I always wanted to make sure that they were happy while being besides me, and I used to do thinks which they loved, but not I. I started loosing myself, what I wanted and what I wished for; the way I wanted to do things.
This habit is still around, but once in a blue moon I take risk, I am slowly and steadly giving myself room to take risk, by doing things the way I want to do them, I am sure enough that I am not that unlucky, would to the least find someone, just like me, feeling insecured, to whom I will extend my hand for helping him/her to get over their fear.
Wishing you a wonderful day ahead.

Believe it or not counseling really helps. That, or religion. You just have to find something to believe in that’s bigger than yourself. I hope that helps and good luck =) I hope you can do it.

Only you can fix you. Don’t look for others to remedy your innermost demons. I’d suggest you’d take an evaluation of yourself, the good, the bad and the ugly. WRITE them down and make a concerted effort to remind yourself of the good qualities when you start feeling insecure. Also, try writing out your goals in life along with a brief description of what you need to do to meet those goals. Use self affirmation along the way and never let anyone tell you how you should feel. An alternative to religion would be philosophy. It is your life take control of it or someone else will.
