Let's get it all straight with an example: I want to use the laptop so I asked my Mum. She agreed(super rare). But due to the fact that she gave me so many warnings before on what will happen shall she catch me using it without permission, I'm still terrified of touching the lappy. Later, Mum walked past and I got this huge panic attack, as though she had just caught me using it without permission but the situation is a complete opposite. And I still freak a lot till now. So, IIN?

    I'm like this at work. It's because my mom always use to yell when I did something 'wrong' (the wrong way in her eyes, she has OCD) so I always need to get permission or I ask how to do something even when I already know how to do it. When I don't I get extremely anxious and I feel like I'm about to get yelled at. I feel like someone is watching me and waiting for me to screw up so they can yell a me.

    Just remember to delete your history. Why is your mum so controlling that she has you scared to do right? I personally think that's wrong.

    This sounds like your mother is an extremely strict mom. Are there situations where she'd punish you even if you followed instructions? It sounds like your mom may have this style:https://www.verywell.com/what-is-authoritarian-parenting-2794955

    I fear nothing but my own contempt.
