Hi,
I have really had my confidence knocked over the past two years by people I thought were friends. I now see they are not friends, to anyone really, as they just gossip and ill wish everyone they meet, blow hot and cold etc, either love you or hate you.
I have to have contact with these people as we do same hobbies/children in same class etc.
I have now (2 years later) got over the fact I can't trust them and don't want to be friends etc. I do sometimes feel overwhelming urge to tell others not to trust them (as even now they tell me deep secrets about even their closest of friends!) but I keep my mouth shut.
I just can't help but try to analyse everything they do though. I am so caught up in trying to make sure they don't find anything out about my private life, or that I don't bump into them that's it's ruining my life.
Are there any good books to read about how to just totally let go of things like this?
I have longstanding anxiety and slight OCD issues.
