Saw your tags on the rsd post and just wanted to say that it'll probably be easier to deal with it if you accept it as a maladaptive survival mechanism and less as a sickness/that you can't trust your intuition. For me it helps to acknowledge that the intrusive thoughts I get are coming from a flawed but nevertheless rational place. I.e "I fear my friends secretly hate me because I've gone through that before and my brain is looking for a pattern so that it can avoid it in the future."
Your RSD thoughts are likely wrong but you do need to trust yourself more than others. A random post doesn't know what applies to you like you do. Trust yourself, you're the one person you can count on in the end.
