Dialled Drunk

I am incredibly uncomfortable when intoxicated people call me up to chat. It's very PTSD-related, very knee-jerk. The walls go up, the defence mechanisms kick in. You're a deer in the headlights with a constant drone of "fuck off, fuck off, fuck off, leave me alone, leave me alone, leave me alone". I don't want to hear that sloppy crap. I can't deal with it. I have no patience for it. Spending one's formative years being verbally and emotionally abused by an alcoholic does interesting things to your fight or flight reflexes, your tolerance levels, and your internal gag reflex.
