One sentence that people in my life have told me repeatedly flew by my mind: "it's not the end of the world, we're just talking/having a discussion". Or "why are you reacting so badly, we're just talking". Like my feelings of hurt don't matter. Like my feelings of being afraid is just something to sweep under the carpet. Especially when it came to difficult subjects. "I am telling you my explicit doubts and you're not allowed to react, you can just listen and and respond, without feelings".
