i (18f) went to a sleepover and one of my friends hurt me physically while the others laughed. it was invasive and i think i lost any trust i had in any of them. 

i came home upset and told my parents what happened. we had planned dinner with family friends and i asked to stay home but they didn’t let me. 

we went to the restaurant buffet and it was crowded and noisy. i’m neurodivergent and get overstimulated very easily, especially when i’m not in a good mood to begin with. 

i kept flinching away from people and loud noises scared me. i was scared people were going to hurt me. i ended up having a panic attack and went to the bathroom. 

then my mom came and told me i had to come out because our family friends were worried (because god forbid i act in a way that makes me look “weird”). i asked her to leave me alone so i could calm down but she refused and started counting down (i’m literally an adult…)

i wish they would have let me stay at home. i feel like whenever i’m upset and having a panic attack, they just won’t leave me alone. i’ve expressed that i need to be left alone sometimes and being around others/having to respond to others while i’m having a panic attack is the opposite of helpful.
