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?

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
