Severe trust issues

[Nothingnoted]

I always feel like people are making fun of me laughing at me just like today someone came in and just laughed at me when they saw my face and it was like my trust issues are gone. Im here for you. I feel a lot safer online than in public

One way to counter that is to "act as if" they aren't making fun of you. If you force yourself to smile (it gets easier with practice) it is actually difficult for humans to not return a smile. A smile literally has a physiological affect. That can completely shift the energy away from negativity. If you act as if they are being mean they will also act defensively regardless of whether they are thinking about your face or not. That will shift the energy too negativity. Remember your personal energy is something you have control over. Does that make sense?

Yes it does

You sweet woman. I'm sorry you felt that way. Try and remember this is our head talking and it usually stems from our feelings of low self esteem and self worth.

You are fabulous, there is only one you

I suffer from trust issues a lot myself too, but fortunately we can at least relate to seeing others going through the same issues here.

Trust issues can develop from being impacted by trauma or attachment issues from childhood or events in your past that led to having insecurity and low-self-worth/self-esteem. Something happened or circumstances happened that led you to believe things about yourself that aren't true and to not trust others or yourself. You may also need validation from others in order to feel safe and good about yourself. None of this was your fault, it was what you did in order to survive.

If you did experience trauma/c-ptsd, which is common, you could benefit from finding a therapist that specializes in treating trauma/c-ptsd to help you heal. Mine used emdr therapy which was very helpful. The more you can investigate and understand where your trust issues came from the better able you are to heal them. If you think you might suffer from low-self-worth/self-esteem and need external validation there is a lot of good info on youtube about this

Thank you clearly seeing a new therapist so that since I have spinal meningitis as a child and childhood trauma that makes me very more sensitive to everything around me I need to create a disco ball around my body and protects me from other people's emotions

Hi G.

Trust issues are the worst & ur right it makes U believe it, the U they're attacking, it's only U that can teach U how to deal with things by having more faith in urself & as with anything it's not easy get ourselves to change let alone accept change.

My trust issues started as a child of 4 then reaffirmed at 17, I was 4 when my mom passed away & 17 when dad did & for me I had abandonment issues but not through any fault of my parents or anyone else on earth , it was just what it is & that's when I realised I needed to accept that somethings are out of my control but the feeling is still there & over time I accepted it & chose my path of how to deal with it.

We all have different ways of doing things & it's best for U to find te best way U can beat it but don't be afraid to beat it either .
