At least good my therapist noticed it and said it's common for anxiety. I was so scared of getting my parents not to be angry that now i stay with "tail between my legs and ears down", scared of someone being mad at me. I'm always scared of someone i live with. I always apologize. I feel so guilty. I feel like "please, don't hate me, don't be mad at me, i don't intend any harm, i'm just deabilitated by trauma. I'm not made to be the bad die or the villain. I'm sorry i left the window open. Or whatever i did or didn't do".

I get scared by people talking in a nasty way about me. Stories got out about me in my locality, and now more than ever before people talk in a nasty fashion about me in local shops.

I am only happy shopping far away from home.

I tend to apologise profusely if l get in people's way. I was always self conscious in shops but am more so now.

I dislike people getting angry and i did nothing and do not see point of having a friendship if person to going to ruin the trust in begin of friendship . do not force people become friends .

I have the same issues, but they have gotten better. I'm not saying it happened overnight and that I don't fall back into it sometimes. However, I worked hard with a therapist and some medication to feel like I had the right to exist. I didn't even notice the change, it was brought to my attention. There is hope out there. I'm glad you're here. Hang in there!
