Ok, that's putting it nicely.

I've been through a lot. I've been told I am a strong woman but the fact is, I can't cope with other people that have strong personalilties.

That is people who try to control me.

(To be honest, I have a situation in real life where someone is trying to bully me.) I am 45 years old for goodness sake! They are succeeding in bullying me and I am likely to leave my job because of it.

Obviously, I do have some brain cells and I have worked out that people with strong personalities are a trigger for me. They remind me of trauma from the past. That trauma is over so I need to find a backbone to deal with this!
