- I am overly sensitive to anything at all. Please be careful with choice of words and include tone tags, or I will probably assume that I’m bothering you or making you upset and stop talking or apologize for it.
- I apologize a lot. All the time. I do this as a trauma response. I cannot control it, and I do not mean it to manipulate you, I literally cannot stop apologizing. Please do not treat it like I want to keep apologizing, because I don’t.
- I see importance in tiny parts of sentences or phrasings to say the same thing. (Ex. “It’s fine” vs “don’t worry, you didn’t do anything.” Or “ily/love you” vs “I love you.” Tiny differences in the way things are said or any missing words can cause me to spiral.
- I am incredibly self conscious. Again, a trauma response. Chances are, if I’m told anything negative about myself by anyone at all, I will internalize it. When insulting me as a joke, please say you do not mean it seriously. A simple “/j” will do.
- I have unpredictable emotions at all times. I can go from happy to sad to angry to bored and all the way back around again at random. If I am randomly feeling angry, bored, sad, etc it’s most likely nothing you did. I will get over it, regardless of if I say otherwise.
- I tend to think that I am the worst person on earth. This can be because I accidentally upset someone, or I made a mistake, or said something awkward, or a conversation got quiet too long. I overthink every single thing that happens and judge myself or change my perception of myself accordingly, and way out of proportion at that.
