How do I build back trust?

After coming out of a rocky emotionally and financially abusive relationship, I lost all my trust in men. It’s been 10 months since it ended, because he cheated. I know they’re not all the same and I don’t want to paint them with the same brush.

However, whenever someone comes along I just ultimately think the worst of them, I have no trust in their intentions and think they’re false. This happens even if they’ve been nothing but kind and honest, I still think they’re lying or out to use me.

Any tips on how to look upon people with a kinder heart and be more open minded? Also, any help on ways to break down this obvious wall I’ve built around myself.

TLDR: Have no trust in men after coming out of an abusive relationship and feel like I’ll never begin to trust anyone ever again.
