Know exactly how you feel. Doctor says it sounds like I dissociate when I feel overwhelmed and really stressed (ok my life is falling apart so pretty good time for that.)
Same fear, but this fear is new to me. Fear of falling apart is so scary, but never that until recently. But then you realize that's why you never got therapy or went to doctor. Afraid it would because you to fall apart if you went .....
I think that you are entirely correct about the anticipatory stress thing.
