Having insecurities is the worst thing in the world. If you think back to the times when you were a young child, and all you worried about was your mom putting your clothes on quick enough in the morning so you could go and play. When you went outside to play, the insults would not be based on looks, so you would hardly ever have anything to feel insecure about. But then as you get older, the insecurities come in thick and fast. We're led to believe that unless we're a perfect supermodel with perfect features and a perfect body, that we're not good looking. We like to pick out even the smallest of faults with how we look, even if there is nothing to complain about. We create faults in our minds that other people don't see. It might have been a little comment someone made a few years ago, but once it has been made it sticks in your mind. So, we want to dive right in, and speak about a few of the insecurities that you might have, and how we can tackle them!
A Fear Of Smiling
One that we wanted to talk about first, because when you think about insecurities, people often think about the general looks of themselves. But to be more specific, one really common insecurity that people suffer with is their smile. You'll notice that some people only smile with their lips closed, simply because they're so fearful of their teeth. If this is something you can relate to, it could be for many different reasons. It might be that you've got a crooked smile, your teeth don't line up, or perhaps some have fell out. Teeth falling out is far more common than you first might think. It can happen because of a poor diet, a genetic condition, or perhaps an injury. All you have to do is lose one tooth and it can completely ruin your confidence in your smile. Having a full set of teeth again might be something you have dreamt about for years, and it's easier to achieve than you might think. You can get dental implants on a finance deal, so you pay monthly to have your smile back again! There are many other conditions with the mouth that can be treated. Braces can treat teeth that are out of line and there are now invisible braces that will stop you from feeling insecure about having them!
Weight Control
Weight control is one that people suffer with the most. The most common issue is for people to manage a high weight. It's far easier to put weight on that it is to lose it. So once the weight is on, people suffer with both the motivation to get it down, and maintenance to keep it down. But that's not the only weight control that people suffer with. One that's not spoken about often enough is trying to put weight on. Some might call it a blessing, but a low BMI can cause so many health conditions, including fatigue and issues with muscles and joints. A trip to the doctors for a referral to a dietician can solve all of your problems, for both scenarios of weight control. Working with professionals to formulate a plan to follow gives you more motivation.
Unwanted Hair & Smells
Unwanted hair is something they both men and women suffer with. Women in particular can feel so insecure with unwanted body hair. It usually appears on the face and on the back, and it's hard to control. Often women turn to shaving, which can only make it worse. However, it might be an underlying condition that's causing this. Polycystic ovaries can cause unwanted hair, and it can easily be controlled. If it's not a condition, and it's a genetic fault, you might benefit using hair loss treatments. Hair can now be lasered off from pretty much every single part of the body. Even though the treatment might be expensive, it's permanent, and can give you so much confidence once it has gone!
It's All In Your Head
This is one you might want to consider. You could spend your life working at the insecurities that you have, but have you ever considered that it might be all in your head. We create faults in our head that aren't even there, so no matter how much you work at them, nothing is going to change. Sometimes you need to look at yourself and see yourself as beautiful!
