Two thoughts:

Maybe relaxation exercises just aren't right for you. Maybe exercise would work better to discharge anxiety and leave you more relaxed without feeling so vulnerable.

I second Noa's suggestion that finding a therapist who can make you feel safe is crucial. I too have a bad reaction to feeling too good (I tend to disconnect) and I've realized that, in my family, my feeling good made me vulnerable, a target to be "shot down." I'd recommend trying therapy again, and take your time finding one you can feel safe with (or at least imagine feeling safe with). Good luck!

I'm not talking about past-life regressions or anything out on "the edge" like that. The way my hypnotherapist put it is like this: that your conscious mind and your subconscious mind both want what's best for you, but they do not necessarily agree. Hypnotherapy is a means of tapping the unconscious to discover the nature of the disagreement and bring the two back in synch.
