I most CERTAINLY have this problem. I don't trust no one, not no way, not no how.
In fact it used to be so bad that I could barely have someone in a different room of my house because I thought they would go through my things and take something, even if they were only going to the bathroom. I've never had a relationship, I question a lot of my friends, even today when I asked my mother if she wanted to look for violas with me and she didn't respond I thought she must be ignoring me because she doesn't want to go.
I was verbally/mentally/emotionally abused myself, so I know what it can do to your head. I don't like the fact other abuse are put above it when this abuse can just destroy you as a person, affect the way you think, the way you feel , the way you view others and yourself.
It is a terrifying and humiliating thing to go through, and the worst part is it may take years before you even realise the extent of it because the people who abuse in this way are just so damn manipulative.
