Comment on Is it normal to feel intense fear when in the presense of any sort of yelling / loud arguments?

  I can 100% confirm this.

  This for me, but I don’t feel the same if the argument is in a language I don’t know / understand.

    Somehow, being yelled at in Cantonese feels like it hurts my feelings more. Like… it feels more “intimate”, its much more personal. Only family uses it, so it feel worse when Cantonese (or sometimes Taishanese) is used. Like I feel like it activates a different part of my bain that’s closer to emotions, while English, even though it can still be terrifying, is slightly more distant.

    English, is more like someone outside trying to breach your house, Cantonese, feels like mom chasing you around the house and beat you as if you are still 7 years old and too young to defend yourself.
