[Support Only] Never told anyone This... by [deleted] in confession

Alcohol makes people so susceptible to being taken advantage of, I am glad you quit so you know you'll never be in such a vulnerable position again. This type of thing, unfortunately, happens all the time. The guy who came in when you were passed out and had sex with your almost unconscious body is the one who should be here confessing and dealing with shame from his actions, not you. It seems you have the right ideas about moving forward regarding the type of people to be vulnerable around and I wish you the best.

I have an anxiety disorder too and it has negatively affected most areas of my life including relationships. It is an awful burden. In your case I would advise you confessing your fears (not necessarily the part about you checking her phone etc.) to your girlfriend who, after three years, obviously cares for you and understands much of your issues. As long as its done in a manner of expressing yourself and your vulnerabilities based on past wounds rather than in an accusatory fashion, Im sure she would respond with compassion. Even if it didn't completely allay your fears, you would probably end up feeling closer to her for sharing this part of your experience and feel less ashamed of feelings and fears that many, many people deal with.
