It sounds like you're being really hard on yourself and stuck in a cycle of negative thoughts and feelings about yourself. I'm wondering, what are you hoping to get out of the support from us? Are you looking to feel better about yourself, or something else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that this community can be really helpful because it helps people to let out their feelings in a safe way that is anonymous; I feel that people can be more honest here because of the privacy. I'm wondering, since letting it out here, have you noticed any changes or had any more thoughts about your self-esteem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I don't know what happened, but when we go through an experience of someone abusing our trust, it then makes it really hard to trust again. I'm not sure if it was your current friends who did this or someone else, but if it was from other people, remember, people who do that aren't that common, and most people can be trusted. Although it may be frightening to think about putting that trust in other people now, my advice would be to feel the fear and do it anyway, because by trusting, there is so much joy to be found in a deeper relationship.

It's important to have faith in the process, because if you don't, you might stop yourself from connecting on that deeper level. What do you think?
