I am easily startled by most everything, and by startled i mean heart pounding, breath stealing fear. Examples: person behind me at the store or person behind me helping hold a door open; something falls in the kitchen; a squeaky door; something that sounds like foot steps in an apartment I know is empty or at work when I am 100% sure I am alone or in the shower when I also know the doors are locked and I am safe.
I am also always very nervous when someone is walking behind me, or a clearly crazy person or aggressively flirtatious (sexual assault category) person begins speaking with me on a train.
What can I do to build my confidence or is this normal?
Thank you!
