Any new or unpredictable situation, to varying degrees,

Having unexpected tasks dumped on me at work that threaten to infringe on the time I have to do my regular tasks,

People not listening to me when I make gentle suggestions, and forcing me to actively enforce my boundaries, because I’m a people pleaser and I can’t stand the thought of coming off as aggressive or disappointing people I care about,

Birthday parties, cons, and other significant events that I really want to go well, because the more I’m looking forward to something, the more my brain worries that it’ll be ruined or something will go wrong! I call it “pedestalling” 🤦‍♀️

…I get the feeling I’m a good bit older than some of the people replying here, lmao 😂

All these things!

Deciding what to eat for dinner, especially if others are expecting me to pick the meal or take care of all the cooking.

Computers.

Stomach issues.

Being around a lot of people.

My partner.

Physical touch / Back rubs that feel insincere.

Singing with people I don’t feel comfortable around or trust (ie singing happy birthday).
