Specializes in Clinical Psychology

Talk therapy: CBT or other good therapy targeted at this issue can be very effective - It's emotional corrective learning. Like a student who went to a poor school system might need some remediation courses to do well in college. You can learn new ways of relating to people that will give you a richer, more pleasant life. Good luck - I'm hoping it works well for you.

Eval: Get a full psychiatric evaluation to determine what bothers you, and consider medication to take the edge off them symptoms. Next, get a referral to a reputable psychotherapist to discuss what your current emotional state and life experiences mean to YOU, including emotional abuse. Meds and therapy together are the most optimal approach, for the most part.
