Lacking confidence (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

insecure

'lacking confidence' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for insecure that I've seen before include "Not firmly fixed" , "Fearful, unsafe." , "safe? Hardly" , "Not adequately protected" , "Timid" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald and The Times.
