I have always struggled with this since I was a kid, as many of you can relate to im sure, I hate being yelled at or getting in trouble at work etc. 

However, I also struggle a lot when people close to me are annoyed/upset/angry towards me, or at least when its perceived that they are.  I'm very sensitive to tone of voice and change in expression etc.  I hate being like this.  It physically makes me feel sick and I know thats not a healthy way to deal.

I wont be able to sleep, eat or focus on anything.  I cant relax until I feel like the balance is back and things are okay again. 

Do any of you have tips for soothing myself and not letting it get to me as much? Conflict is normal, being annoyed with other people is normal.  I feel like when this happens I tend to cling on to close the distance that I feel, whether there actually is any or its just in my head.
