Depressed and confused about life!
I had troubled childhood and it reflects on my current relationships and general behaviour.
I am too gullible, have commitment issues, abandonment issues!
I try to get over things and try to live normal life but somehow I always find myself in the middle of a mess!!
My family is too protective and never let me do whatever I want.
They want me to have an arranged marriage.
But I honestly don't trust their choice as they fail to understand me in the first place!
Also, I like someone but I have no commitment from that person and it will take a year for a confirmed commitment, considering the families involved.
Along with this, I am facing career and health issues. I can't sleep at night. I keep getting same wired dreams over and over.
I frequent palpitations, and I get startled and scared all the time. Paranoid, overthinking all the time. Occasional Nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite and acidity issues.
I am very frustrated with life overall and most of the mornings I wish I was dead!

Hi
I’m glad u reached out. I understand that u have been reflecting by urself over ur own issues have reached some very helpful insights too. Ur right that our childhood adverse experiences have a negative impact on our overall well-being.
The fear and insecurities that u experience now are due to some beliefs that u carry of urself and the world around u.
Sometimes these beliefs are healthy n helpful for us to carry along in our lives but sometimes there are counterproductive to our healthy mental well-being.
I would like to help u dear. And I realise there are other concerns regarding ur marriage alliance u feel deeply challenged with.
Next Steps
How abt we take small steps towards resolving first ur thoughts and feelings and then empowering u to feeling more secure and confident. Pls connect over a session if possible.
