Does anyone else have a good way to tell when you're being overly sensitive, and when there really is reason to fear someone? I get myself in a corner sometimes where I'm not sure what is reasonable and what is paranoid.
I know I can be overly sensitive to other people's "normal" behavior, but I also know I have put myself in dangerous situations before because I didn't have an accurate understanding of what was, in fact, "normal." Plus, sometimes part of me will think it's better to not protest in order to avoid something worse, when I should have protested.
But on the other hand, I don't want to just go around decking people or running for my life when there's no real reason to.
Does anyone else have a good system?
Thanks for reading this.
