Diagnosis is usually a complex process due to the sheer number of possible causes and related symptoms. In order to diagnose feelings of insecurity, we could:
- Research the topic
- Find a doctor with the time
- Use a diagnostic computer system.
The process is the same, whichever method is used.
Step 1: List all Possible Causes
We begin by identifying the disease conditions which have "feelings of insecurity" as a symptom. For example, anxiety.
Step 2: Build a Symptom Checklist
We then identify all possible symptoms and risk factors of each possible cause, and check the ones that apply:
being serious about life
often/always feeling unusually cold
discontinued antianxiety drug use
poor ability to relax
severe facial burning/tingling
frequent bizarre dreams
frequent sleep paralysis
jumpiness
unsound sleep
past abortions
angry/hostile disposition
being anxious/nervous
... and so on
Step 3: Rule Out or Confirm each Possible Cause
A differential diagnosis of your symptoms and risk factors finds the likely cause of feelings of insecurity.

Emotional Symptoms section of the questionnaire,
The Analyst™ will ask the following question about feelings of insecurity:
Approximately how often do you have feelings of insecurity? Examples include worrying about what people think of you, wondering if you are working hard enough, wondering if you are doing something wrong.
Possible responses:
→ Never / don't know
→ Rarely - under once per month, nothing serious
→ Occasionally - a few times a month
→ Regularly, in certain situations
→ I am (almost) always insecure or self-conscious
