You both are right on.
A trigger is something that happens in the present time and can take you back to a time in your life that was painful. It can cause you to have intrusive thoughts about an experience, explicit memories/flashbacks; like it was happening all over again, it can cause physical discomfort like stomach upset, trouble breathing, dizziness, and physical pain/discomfort. A trigger can also cause you to "space out" or dissociate to another place inside for safety. Triggers......blech!!!
