Hello all,
I wanted to talk about feelings of sadness, depression caused by feeling let down by others in your life. For example, I feel like many people in my life have flaked out, ignored me, and just don't care about anyone other than themselves. This feeling has escalated ever since I moved to Los Angeles. I feel that most here is so self absorbed and vain. I have invested my time and energy with several people just to have them not care, blow me off. This has caused me to lose much faith in people and I have difficulty trusting anyone. My lack of trust has resulted in me losing jobs, friendships and opportunities therefore making me even more depressed. It has become a vicious cycle. I'm trying to stay as positive as I can in what seems to be a sea of negativity.
Do you feel like you are losing faith in humanity as well? How do you learn to trust people/let them into your life?
