I get the impression that she thinks I'm minimizing and lying. She asks me literally any time we talk (even when she called simply to reschedule earlier today) if I was safe... it's a bit triggering. I just don't want to be seen as a drama queen or as constantly in crisis. I'm not right now, so I don't want that impression over everything I do or say. I know I can't control how she reacts to me, but I wonder how much of what I say and do comes off so far from my intent. Maybe that's the conversation I need to have with her?
