This has been a challenge for me my whole life. My innate instinct is to fire off a shotgun of thoughts and words so that the person listening can understand every nuance and layer of what I’m saying. This has lead me to saying WAY more than I should. Then I’d get carried away and wear my thoughts and feelings on my sleeve. This would make me look weak, scatterbrained, nervous, etc. I now think very carefully about what I’m going to say and I try to make my thoughts as concise and brief as possible. This one exercise has drastically improved my life.
I'm sorry to hear. Incorporating stoic philosophy into handling toxic people is such a practical approach. Reminding ourselves of the transience of life and focusing on our reactions rather than the events themselves is powerful.

Someone, treated me as s dog. What’s the best way to react to this? Should I tell that person what she did?

Run for the hills mate, Doesn’t sound like the person deserves your explanation
Talk too fast. No time to think and absorb.
