How does one manage the panic when someone is trying to help?
I know some of this is from trauma and am working on it but am wondering if anyone has any advice? So I panic when I get overwhelmed by people trying to help me or ask me questions. In the past every time I asked for help came at a cost (being put down or having to pay back the help given or criticism of things I was working twords because I asked for help) so I am now out of the toxic environment I was in and people genuinely want to help me and it’s so weird and I am frustrated because it causes me to panic and last time I tried to get out it ended badly and I was trapped there for many years. I have asked for patience and I apologize when I am snippy or harsh and don’t mean it at all. How can I stay calm and clearly communicate I can’t do it right now?
