Insecurity in some form or another is probably experienced by everyone at some point in their lives, but yours does seem pretty extreme. It doesn’t sound normal to me just because it indicates a lack of self esteem. But I think it’s something you should be able to overcome. You just have to realize that you’re just as worthy as anyone else, and you do deserve to enjoy those things you mentioned. I used to get embarrassed very easily too, and I think it came from insecurity and social anxiety. If you think you might have social anxiety, there are plenty of good meds that can help with that (I’m on one myself). And if it’s just general insecurity, then just work on being more positive about yourself. I can assure you that people probably don’t even notice how you eat your tacos, etc. If they do, then they need to mind their own business. And anyway, there’s no right way to eat ‘em. It’s just whatever works best for you. :) Good luck.
Is it normal to be so insecure, that you feel you don't deserve much?
