I feel the same as you regarding people getting angry and leaving. Then I feel like it's a self fulfilling prophecy sometimes bc I end up self sabotaging the relationship. Once they do leave then I'm like see I knew this would happen and then I get evern more worried about it happening. Is the PTSD from what you went through with your mother? I believe that my mind and body are always on high alert as well.

I've sort of given up on myself though----My issue is in every relationship. I fully expect anyone at any moment to turn on me and get angry or leave. My doc says that its a part of my hypervigilance that's a part of my PTSD. My body/mind are on 24/7 high alert. I wish it could change, but after so many years of healing, its one of a few symptoms that doesn't ever get any better. You sound better than I do though, so I think there is hope for you. Hugs.
