Going through a relationship break up last year, I am now finding that in these past weeks my trust issues are starting to morph into a fear to interact with anyone, even the thought of leaving my house/my room brings about a heavy, tight feeling in my chest, knots in my stomach and a shaking in my knees. Does anyone have any knowledge on what would help me work through this so that this doesn't progress any further and reverse itself?</P> Tue, 29 May 2018 14:44:30 GMT Itzaprocess 2018-05-29T14:44:30Z https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/anxiety/trust-issues/m-p/364909#M26551 <P>I already had a shakey relationship with trust from past experiences.

Heartbreak can be horrendous so I feel for you...</P> <P>I’m personally admittedly a bit of a disaster story when it comes to romantic relationships so I’m not sure if I’m the ideal person to offer advice. Sorry about that...</P> <P>But I still wanted to express my understanding and let you know that you’re heard. You sound so shaken from the break-up so I feel now is about gradually building you back up again so you’re eventually okay to leave the house again, etc.</P> <P>I wonder if you have spoken to a GP or counsellor/psych/etc about how you‘re feeling as they can help you find strategies to help you overcome your trust issues and fears. Just a gentle suggestion that you might like to consider...</P> <P>kind and caring thoughts,</P> <P>Pepper</P> <P> </P> Tue, 29 May 2018 22:12:07 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/anxiety/trust-issues/m-p/364910#M26552 Peppermintbach 2018-05-29T22:12:07Z
