As far as over reaction goes, you are probably the only one in a place to judge. Do *you* feel like your response is disproportionate? Is there a different way to respond that would get you what you want?

My emotions ratcheted up due to him doing something annoying and upsetting repeatedly even though I calmly addressed it at first. This eventually got me an emotional disorder diagnosis from a psychiatrist. I’m not sure that’s a fair judgment on their part. In hindsight, I agree, that calmly asking him to stop the upsetting behavior an infinite amount of times is critical to one’s mental health. I am trying to control my emotions better myself.
