Security and Insecurity

We gather every week for an evening of discussion and personal storytelling, centered around topics related to psychology, existence, emotional well-being, and self-development. During the discussions, we like to focus on genuine human connection and the topic itself without distractions, therefore, we always meet at cafés.

The topic for this week will be Security and Insecurity.

Many people grow up lacking a sense of security, which later might turn into feelings of insecurity in otherwise secure situations. How can we learn to understand which situations are secure and which aren’t? Are there clear boundaries between them, or is it more fuzzy? How can we deal with insecurities? How much does insecurities affect our relationships with friends, family or significant others? Can we turn untrue feelings of insecurity into feelings of security?
