[quote=Anonymous]I have found it useful to shift from asking myself this as a yes/ no question to asking myself more specific questions based on direct experience. “ Do I trust this person?” becomes “What do I trust this person with ?” And eventually, the list of specifics gets longer and longer. And I have to prioritize. Maybe I can’t “trust” someone to “always be on time” — but I can trust them to “ always take my needs and my point of view into account.” For me, the experience of trusting someone with smaller things allows me to grow towards trusting them with more consequential things — like my future and my well-being. It’s hard to overcome our early templates — but it is possible. For me what has helped is having experiences that are different from ones that I was taught, which has helped me to develop healthier expectations. [/quote]
