How can I get over my trust issues.
I'm a 19 year old guy
I have big trust issues with people since I was abused by two trusted adults, asubject to medical malpractice, and had a good friend seduce me and ask me if I want to "sexually experiment" with him. I was also bullied pretty bad by a good friend in middle school.
What can I do to get over this?
First thing, learn how to be a skeptic. It will keep you from getting ripped off and abused in the future.
Therapy isn't the answer to everything. Trust must be earned, and blindly trusting everyone and everything will lead to more abuse.
Trust is an important thing, you need to trust others but maybe be a little more on the careful side of it.
We all get hurt by trust and you must really move on. It is OK to think about it and talk to a therapist if you feel the need to take the pressure off of your self.
I'm sorry that this happened to you, it should have never happened to in the first place.
Talk to others if you need to, don't try to hold it in that will not work well in the long run.
Be kind to yourself!!!
And for give yourself, others did this to you.
Stay safe!!
Therapy
Forget the past , it's done, finished.
Move on.
Seek a friend. Find a hobby. Stay off social media for a while. You're young, you have time to catch up.
