How do you recover from being emotionally abused? Does it ever get easier to trust? I feel like I’m never going to be able to let
my guard down and it’s ruining any chances I have of starting a
relationship. I catch myself being
defensive and bitchy when there’s really no reason for it, but it’s because I
don’t have the strength to get hurt again and I definitely don’t have the
strength to be abused again. So what do
I normally do because of this? I run
like hell as soon as I get too close to someone. I don’t even know if these guys are lying to
me or not because in my head they have and that’s enough to make me run. How sad is that?! I can’t believe I’m even admitting this
insanity but I know I’m not the only one going through this so I thought I
would put my situation out there and see if anyone has an opinion on the
subject. It sucks and it’s lonely and I’m
ready to move on. It’s been almost 2
years and I thought that by now I would be farther along in my healing, but I
still have that “I’m gonna get you before you get me” attitude and it has to
stop or I’m going to be the crazy cat lady for sure. Do I get any credit for knowing I’m a total
mess?
Anyways I hope everyone is surviving this Monday. Any and all advice is welcomed and don’t
forget to be brilliant.
