How do I uphold/set boundaries when I can’t get mad just sad and my voice barely changes tone. The anxiety of having to defend myself is crushing :(

I've also struggled with boundaries and I found it much easier to communicate how what they did made me feel or just say not to do something after the fact. Often over text because I hate how slow I think and doing it in person is terrifying

Not touching problem, but the issue is when they ignore and you have to repeat yourself, especially if you don’t appear mad, they don’t take you serious.
