AA Thought for the Day

Insecurity

The most common symptoms of emotional insecurity
are worry, anger, self-pity, and depression.
These stem from causes which sometimes seem to be
within us,
and at other times to come from without.
To take inventory in this respect
we ought to consider carefully all personal relationships
which bring continuous or recurring trouble.
It should be remembered that this kind of insecurity
may arise in any area where instincts are threatened.
