Thanks LR
Very interesting. Mental illness causes us to make 'irrational' decisions, and/or to think irrationally. In my case both are true to the extreme. In addition we can also become more sensitive, as well as more reactive to triggers (I'm only guessing, but these could include actions which we perceive to affect trust).
i have discovered myself that I have now made decisions that, in the past, I would have considered totally irrational and, dare I say, crazy! These can be very minor things like buying something you can't afford, but nonetheless. Many of these thoughts are associated with catastrophising events or actions by others. Sounds like you may be doing the same (my opinion only of course).
My question to myself is whether this is temporary or whether I will need to include these traits as issues that I need to manage.
Not sure if I am off track with your original post?
