Feeling so lost 😞

I had a really traumatic sequence of events happen back in 2013/14/15:
- family member charged in Supreme Court and jailed
- child hospitalised, in ICU, multiple errors which led to a negligence case (we won)
- relationship breakdown
- rental property sold/ new house purchased
- multi car accident
- new relationship which quickly turned abusive
since that time I feel like any other relationship I wind up in is very toxic, the most recent one was the worst - it’s just ended too, and looking back in all I can do is shake my head and wonder why I let that happen.
I feel so lost and alone, which is why I think I end up in bad relationships… chasing a feeling of safety and security.
does anyone have any tips on how to give myself that sense of security I am chasing?
I will be working with a new professional soon, but it’s so expensive even with rebates etc, so I might not be able to go often.

When you learn to be comfortable in your own company and know you can be by yourself it'll be easier for you not to fall into those abusive relationships as you won't seek out just anybody
