I grew up in an alcoholic home. There was a lot of turmoil in my young life, including empty promises from both parents. The only person who I felt happy with, my grandma, died when I was still a child. I'm 22 now. When I was 18, I decided to leave home and marry a sailor I had been dating since high school. I thought that I could escape my hectic home if I married him.

My husband started beating and cheating on me when I became pregnant. Now I'm back at my parents home, a single mom with a two year old toddler that I love very much. Getting back in the dating scene is not going well, I can't trust anyone and it's hurting all my relationships...

How can I learn to trust people again and fix my insecurity issues? Please help. I've tried to go into counseling but my schedule is just so busy with being a single mom, part time employee and part time student in college.
