Thank you very much Sam! Yes, I have tried opening up to someone before. A few years ago, I used to see a therapist and I thought that things were getting better. Then, I was molested by a 40 year old man, and after I told my therapist, I was not comfortable talking with him anymore. I have also tried opening up to my fiance, because we can usually tell each other anything, but I feel that he is afraid of what I am saying, so he does not listen. I have also tried to open up to my best friend, but she always changes the subject to something about herself, rather than listening to me. I have tried opening up to a couple of other friends, but they just seem uncomfortable so I stop. I just feel so trapped, and like everyone only cares about themselves. I always listen when someone has a problem, and I try to give advice, but nobody will listen to me. Thank you again, and I will definitely message you sometime.

I did with one of my teachers and it was the best decision i have ever made, but now i am trying to not communicate with him so that leads me to isolation but i digress. i think that it would be helpful to talk to a therapist or even someone here on PC. So if you ever want to talk you could message me here... but you don't have to.
maybe even writing could help to get some of your negative emotions out or posting here could really help too.
