Decide on a few key words or phrases which signify something you both understand, and which put a certain procedure into action immediately. Very much like have a “safe word” in sex, which stops anything and everything right away. It could mean you or they have crossed a line; it could mean you need a minute alone to gather your thoughts; it could mean that you feel you are not being heard properly – anything you want, really, which could benefit you both.
