It's Hard To Trust People, Here's How To Overcome Trust Issues

JAKARTA - Lately, the echo of the term trust issue is being heard. Launching Insanq, Wednesday, September 8, the trust issue is a problem of trust in others caused by several factors; such as wounds and betrayals in the past. Usually, the attitude of trust issues is very visible when someone is in a romantic relationship.

In addition to love relationships, trust issues are also often seen in friendship and work relationships. Launching the Kumparan page, a Clinical Psychologist, Christine Ang, in a post on her social media explains 4 ways to overcome trust issues. Here are some of them:

First, you must understand the concept of trust. There is no trust without risk in it. When you start to put your trust in other people, it means you also have to be ready to accept the risks in the future.

For example, being hurt or betrayed, you cannot avoid these two events. For that, you must be prepared for various things that will happen in the future.

Once you understand the concept of trust, you need to instill the will to learn to believe. If you continue to close yourself off from trusting others, then you will be stuck in a trust issue for a long time. This will certainly hinder you in building a relationship of love, friendship, and work.

In order to get out of the trust issue trap, you need the help of someone as a supporter. It could be a parent or a close friend. Start telling him what you're going through. If you still find it difficult to trust him, you can do counseling with a psychologist to help you overcome the trust issue.

Trusting other people is hard. For that, when you are starting to learn to trust others, you must also have healthy boundaries. Trust certainly requires a process that is not short, you cannot immediately trust the people you meet. You can start filtering out which people you can trust.
