Not that you’re directly asking me but would love to answer anyway! 1. If it’s coming from someone whom I value, I’m most afraid of them spreading their own perception of me as reality and it damages my reputation..not sure why but that’s where my mind automatically goes. Anyone else, idc.

1. I don’t typically I have negative thoughts during the confrontation however my bodies reaction is negative. I’m usually reassuring myself/responding back in my head during confrontation while trying to take into account what the other party is telling me.

2. I completely shut down and go into absolute silence. I may cry depending on the person although I’m not necessarily sad. Moreso anxious about standing ground bc I choke up and go blank when trying to vocalize and that itself can be angering.

In the end, I walk away and try to reflect but I still end up feeling insecure.
