Three Types of Insecurity

1) Domain specific insecurity occurs when we are insecure about a specific domain or resource in life, for example, food insecurity, financial inseurity, or a lack of physical saety. Combating domain-specific inseucrity is about access and resourses.

2) Relationship or itnersonal insecurity occurs when we don't feel we have a supportive and trusting relationship. It can happen either in a specific relationship or as an overarching feeling about all fo our relationships. It makes us feel uncertain about being loved, trusted, protected, and valued. This kind of insecurity varies based on the relationship partner.

3) General or personal insecurity occurs when we are overly critical of our weaknesses. this may include being overly critical of our body image or our performance at work.
