best ways to get over psychological trauma. ideally related to infidelity? I have found "living in the moment" tends to help.... but can rarely stay there. i have always been either living in the past, or the future. my whole life has been like this. #i suppose my real question is... how the hell do i stop and live in the damn moment for longer than a few minutes at a time?!? how do i just let go of the past? how do i stop worrying about the future, and just focus on the now? and is this the right way to get over issues such as infidelity in a relationship, mixed with historic abandonment issues? how do you just get over stuff permanently and not just for a few months before you realise it still haunts you!?
for context its been nearly a decade since i was cheated on and yet still feel like i have PTSD over it. its been over 3 decades since i had my family torn apart by a nasty divorce that i never really got over either.... why!? how do i let it ALL go and just start living and not wishing i was never here to begin with?
