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.
- Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, p. 52

Thought to Ponder . . .
Worry is negative meditation.

AA-related 'Alconym' . . .
W A S P = Worry, Anger, Self-Pity.

Thanks to all of you for sharing so generously of your experience, strength and hope in carrying the AA message.
Blessings in sobriety to all,
In love and service,
