I find that when someone taps me on the shoulder or comes and touches me to get my attention, or sneaks up on me, I get startled when I don’t see them first.
I have never fully understood when I feel that way, I know it’s an overreaction. I haven’t had any past trauma to warrant that response.
I explain to people I need to see them first before they touch me or I get scared. Is there anyone else in the same situation?
