instead of trying to pretend that you have normal coping skills, perhaps your efforts would be better spent learning positive coping skills...what things can you think of that would be positive coping mechanisms?
betrayal really hurts, but it hurts us infinitely more if it causes us to never trust anyone again... i know that you said that it feels like a mistake to trust anyone, but that doesn't mean that it necessarily is. feelings aren't facts. could you test some people out with some little things? and also show yourself that you are brave enough to trust people.
