Anxiety Ridden
Hi, I can't say I've ever done this so I'm learning.
I tend to have this problem of paranoia.. It's caused some problems in my relationship and my day to day life. In today's world I find it so hard to trust even my partner when I get too into my head at times. I've had rather severe experiences with being gaslighted and cheated on for extended periods of time.. And I feel it's now leaking into my current relationship. My problem is I'm afraid to let my guard down because it may happen again.. And I don't want to drive my partner away if they arnt doing anything.. I don't have any evidence to show they are but I'm definitely insecure.
Any advice would be great, friends would be awesome too. I'm still figuring this all out so please handle with care.
Hi! currently struggling with this too, but opposite way for me. I get paranoid i’ve done something awful and don’t remember (never true)
It’s completely normal to feel how u do considering your past experiences. It’s important to understand who ur partner is as a person and their morals. If they have never cheated in the past in past relationships and have never done anything to hurt you it’s unlikely they will cheat.
There is bad people and their is good people, it’s just important to understand ur partner isn’t a bad person who will hurt u
If they are not giving any red flags then likely they are not cheating
Just be careful to accuse them falsely as it can be hurtful for your partner.
Always here to talk!
Thank you!! That's very helpful!! And I'll be sure to keep that in mind!
keep in touch if u need someone to speak to
