A person with trust issues may harbor negative beliefs about trust and may find themselves thinking limiting thoughts, such as: “I can never let my guard down.” “If I open up I will only get hurt again.” “Everybody is out to get me.” A person with these kinds of thoughts may construct social barriers as a defense mechanism to ensure that trust is not lost again. These barriers are often a person’s way of avoiding the pain, rejection, or guilt associated with mistrust.
