Am I being a sensitive person or is there a reason behind this?

I will literally cry if someone raises their voice or uses the wrong tone. Is it just me and is there some psychological reason behind this?

I am very similar. When people get angry and start yelling or using that tone I will usually run for cover. I'm very insecure in my attachment style so I tend to assume I'm not wanted anymore ever.

@Doomflower I’m the same when people yell or use the tone on me it’s like them saying you’re not wanted or needed
Doomflower · 41-45, M
@IvyMiller I will usually withdraw quietly.

@Doomflower same and cry too + it will affect me for the rest of the day

Were you yelled at a lot as a child? I'm not trying to be mean, but that is one possibility why.
Also hormones fluctuate in women's bodies a lot.

@SW-User honestly I don’t remember a lot as a child or from a couple years ago I have really bad memory and it’s like my brain is deleting new memories everyday it weird but yeah idk and maybe it’s hormones it could be that also

Probably... The bottom line is people, including you, make mistakes... Some people will yell and scream when you do, others will patiently explain how to avoid them in future.... It's life, it's how we learn and grow

Perhaps insecurity but it is something you will want to get past if you can

@Rambler I really want to get past it but I just don’t know how sadly...

Time and experience ...be patient @IvyMiller

You're a sensitive person.
Even I get riled up the moment someone raises their voice to me.
littlematthew123 · 22-25, M
well if they raise there voice caus somethin bad is gonna happen after then its ok to cry I think
Sounds like slightly excessive sensitivity to me .-.

I'm the same. My mum always tells people I'm of a nervous disposition

Maybe your just a sensitive person
IvyMiller · 22-25, F
@LadyJ yeah maybe you’re right

You may be harbouring/suppressing emotions.
Just a sensitive person nothing wrong with that
I’m the same way

Maybe something to do with loud noises?
IvyMiller · 22-25, F
@Mikee666 I am sensitive with loud noises so that’s a possibility
It’s not just you. I think most people react negatively to some extent when being yelled at—it’s disrespectful. But to the point of tears indicates that you take it very personally. As another poster suggested, perhaps a childhood incident left a mark.

@bijouxbroussard It could be and you’re right but it’s not only when they yell but also when they change their tone
