How does one start trusting again?
I ask myself this question incessantly.
Is there a reason you stopped? If you knew why you stopped trusting people in the first place, maybe you can work past it.
I consider distrust a defense mechanism.
Upon thinking about that, I don’t think I ever trusted people. All I knew of trust was things and maybe animals.
Surely you trusted your parents at some point.
Not really. They had issues. I remember feeling like I didn’t belong but wanting it that way.
Sounds like distrust is just a part of who you are.
Yes, and it’s tense, painful, nightmarish and anxious. I hate my condition.
If nothing changes, nothing changes. You have to make the first move. Get out there and mix with some people. Do some volunteer work. Meet good people. It’ll change you for the better.

I live with some good people now. I am learning the difference.

I have no idea because I’ve never trusted anyone from the start
