Thank you. This is cake! And not only cake, but a cake I have tasted before, although perhaps made to a variant of the recipe. I’m familiar with people adding on their own “stuff” to the things that happen. Personally, I would put less emphasis on their emotional reaction as the thing of importance than whatever they are believing in that moment, that the emotion is a reaction to. If the reaction is dysfunctional, unearthing the beliefs and tracing them to their origins in past events can be helpful in dissolving it.
