this is the reason I have trouble with the phone. At least with email or text, they can get back to me if it's a bad time.

I used to have a volunteer job in peer counseling where I had to call ppl all the time to give them information about a group I was running locally and repeatedly got traumatized by ppl yelling at me or their husbands yelling at me and hanging up on me.

I am attempting to deal with that fear now.

thanks,
