Relationship phobia could be caused by situations in the past where your trust was broken or by things that happened to you as a child that made you feel unstable. You can make your relationship less tense by doing certain things.
When your partner is sleeping, do you check their phone? Are you worried their friendship with a coworker is more complicated than it seems? When they're away, do you call them to check on them? These are some signs that someone in a relationship doesn't trust you.

Mind flights and daydreams are common for people with doubt at times when they need to focus on their mental health.
These side effects can be nasty for the person having them and everyone else around them. Being distrustful can come from terrible events that changed your life, memories of being abused as a child, or relationships that you still have as an adult.
For example, someone may have been repeatedly put down, and their nervous thinking may have developed as a defense against future threats.
🧵 3/5
It's often a combination of things in your life history and those around you that worsen relationship issues. For example, if you've been hurt and had your trust broken in previous relationships and are under a lot of pressure in the one you're in now, you may be more aware of possible risks.
Consider whether to pay attention to your gut feelings when things seem fishy. As long as your partner has given you reasons to be suspicious in the past or you have proof that something is wrong, you should look into your feelings of suspicion to see if they are trying to tell you something.
🧵 4/5
You are suspicious because you have no faith in your partner, which is at the heart of your relationship problem. In the long run, your relationship will end because you don't trust each other. Finding a way to feel safe in the relationship and accept your partner when they show they can be trusted is the best way to fix it.
You may notice that certain feelings or situations set off anxiety. It can assist to be aware of your emotions. If you write down your thoughts and feelings in a diary it might help you become more mindful.
