I think that a good portion of our insecurities do come from the days when we were all in school. It scars us when even a simple rejection becomes a school-wide fiasco and you get kicked until everyone becomes bored of it. Additionally, I'd like to place some blame on societal standards and expectations. In this light, life is typically more difficult for women, but it is accurate to say that society's expectations of men can create very large amounts of anxiety and depression. While the particular hurdles you may face can be unique, we do all struggle with the same race track. You are never alone.
