This is where comfort tests come into play. That and the 'come to jesus'

Show her a better way.

also, why in the hell does she fear you flipping the fuck out? what exactly is your 'frame' imply here?

Very little information on what behavior she's actually showing. Going off what you said though if you have done such a complete 180, then the most intelligent thing she can do is to back waaaayyyy off, and then attempt to reassess the entire dynamics of the relationship. Expect pokes and prods in the future as part of that reassessing.

How fun of a guy are you? Do you laugh and make jokes and playfully tease her?

How would you react if she fucked up your dinner or your favorite shirt?

She was anxious to begin with. You're squashing "shitty comfort tests" as if they are shit tests. The solution here is calm, stoic behavior. Address the emotion or behavior, address the underlying issue, or defer the discussion until she can calm down. Read the responses from /u/jacktenofhearts in this thread.

She's probably trying to find her role with this 'new you', help her find this role.

You didn't give much info so that's all I've got.
