Susie's expression doesn't indicate that Donna "shouldn't raise her voice", but rather that Donna hasn't understood the real situation: Susie is neither an alcoholic, nor is she afraid of being "alone". "To raise one's voice" is to shout, or to raise the volume of one's voice due to being excited or angry.
Susie's expression doesn't indicate that Susie is becoming "angry" or "mad", but rather that Donna hasn't understood the real situation: Susie is neither an alcoholic, nor is she afraid of being "alone".
The idiom "you've got the wrong end of the stick" means that someone, in this case Donna, has misunderstood something or that they have the wrong idea. After Donna diagnoses Susie with "a fear of being rejected" and a major alcohol problem, Susie explains that this isn't the case: Donna has misunderstood the situation and has got "the wrong end of the stick". Other idioms which express this same idea: "You've got it all wrong" or "You've got the wrong idea".
Susie's expression doesn't indicate that Donna isn't "making sense" or that she is being confusing or unclear, but rather that Donna hasn't understood the real situation: Susie is neither an alcoholic, nor is she afraid of being "alone".
