It’s a sad moment when you realize you can’t trust anyone anymore

[Tomm58]

The moment has finally arrived, your last human connection that you would never think would give you trouble, does.

Family sick of you?? Friends sick of your selfish actions?? Are strangers more friendly than people you know??

Welcome to the hardest part of your life. Moment to moment torture with no one to come to your aid. Man, deploying a final measurement in this kind of situation.... we all deserve fking gold medals.

re strangers more friendly than people you know??

In my opinion yes. I think for loved ones things as mental illness is hard to accept.

 

[Whitewash11235814]

Yep. I completely lost trust in all humanity.

If I open my heart to anybody irl, I may be sectioned or rejected. People don't know how to deal with us.
At the same time I don't feel loneliness, I live in solitude. Just me and my thoughts.
People do not look at the core, they look at the consequences and try to fight the consequences, but that is not right.

I Trust my Dog and Dog's in general, but people NO!!!

Are strangers more friendly than people you know??

In some instances, yes, this is true for me. The only reason those strangers are/were friendly is because they do not know me well enough... or they just wanted something from me. And then they vanish.

I never trust anyone. People can betray you and let you down. It is true that you cannot trust people. I would rather just keep my distance from others. I am very introverted anyway.

It's terrible. Even in our worst when we want to ctb we cant tell anyone because they only want us if we're recovery oriented. If we don't keep trying bs things and thinking bs just so they can feel that maybe our untreatable mental disorders will go away, they don't want us around. We ruin their lives. It's horrible

All human interactions are transactional and rooted to ulterior motives. Even the concept of unconditional love is completely fictitious. Humans are often fake and untrustworthy, all the way down to their greetings of "How are you?" and "Nice to me you". They don't even have any guilt, shame, or remorse for their duplicitous nature or the consequences of these actions.

I get it. I do have some people I think I trust? Which is cool. But My trust issues are through the roof. It's not even thought based it's in my body, and it's exhausting. I am scared of everyone now. It's exhausting. I trusted people when I was messed up from trauma and went through serious betrayals. It is what it is. I am so tired of trusting someone and then realizing I can't trust them. I had this recently with a friend and I've unfortunately been ruminating on it. I have a long history of violent trauma and this friend knows this. Despite knowing this he gave me hard time about locking the door when I am home alone, insinuated that I was paranoid, and even when I explained why I don't feel safe he still rebutted me. I trusted this person with my trauma history, like oh boy here we go again. I don't understand why people knowing my history can't just keep that in mind. It feels like it's easier for them to just ignore it instead of making an effort to have empathy.

Yeah, everyone in my life betrayed me too. I'm just past being able to put energy into new relationships.

Most people are batshit crazy like rabid dogs, they just have good defense mechanisms that allow them to hide the truth from themselves. Lack of self reflection and ignorance allows them to function properly and blame everyone else for their problems.

 

[Reallysad]

100% agree with this post.I trust nobody as humans are not trust worthy,people are only out for themselves

"Function properly"?! Now there's some irony for you! Considering your descriptions of most humans being "batshit crazy like rabid dogs", ignorant, and "lacking self-awareness." Not to mention Jiddu Krishnamurti's quote about being "well-adjusted" in a "profoundly sick society".

This exemplifies three concepts I have regarding the human species. First, the typical human isn't the gold standard for sanity or mental health. Second, the species and subspecies names for the modern human, sapiens, is a misnomer considering it drives from the Latin word for "discerning" or "wise". (Of course, the title choice also demonstrates their anthropocentrism.) Third, this calls into question their self-description as "conscious beings".
