Educational/social trauma?
Anyone else have, or know people who have, super sensitivities to assignments or homework because of how teachers treated them or how stressful it was at one point or multiple times to find yourself super behind and in a guilt/shame spiral? I have a suspicion that people go through a trauma with those guilt/shame attacks, like any extreme emotion state, and the circumstances that might be driving it. I think it drives some of my performance anxiety in school and work, and the unresolved aspects of those experiences drive my avoidance behavior, creating more traumatic periods of overwhelm and dissociation from task debt, social debt, and financial debt.
