I was wondering if there were others who felt this way or if it's just me. I grew up being the sensitive one, the emotional one who cried over simple and small things. Yet as I matured I learned to "not trust" most people. I couldn't believe their honesty or openness it seemed so foreign and strange to me and at times still does. Has anyone else experienced this? If so how do you cope with it?
100% YES!

I am working through a number of schemas with my T.

My number 1 schema is that I don't fit in.

(ISNT this one of Maslows basic needs - a sense of belonging? I feel like my basic need is not being met ... )
