I keep realising more and more triggers and symptoms of my PTSD, it seems never ending. Another trigger I've noticed is tv shows about people finding their families. There's this show on in Australia about people finding relatives they've never met or haven't seen in years. I can't watch the ads or the show, I have to change the channel.
I didn't meet my father until I was 18, I was lied to the whole time, he didn't even know I existed. One person in my family even told me this story that my father was married with kids and had an affair with my mother, I confronted the people she said told her that and they have absolutely no idea what the hell she is talking about.

When I see thid show it just makes me so mad and depressed, I know in reality it's nothing like on tv. It wasn't actually a great experience at all and my father turned out to be another drug taking alcoholic. In fact when I called his house his partner thought I was calling up to buy drugs.

Well anyway, this show is coming back on tv again, so now I have to deal with seeing the ads and coming across the show again. It's not my biggest trigger, but it still bugs me. Especially when people are talking about stuff on tv, I've had one or 2 people ask if I watch the show because it's really great, and I've been at someones house and it comes on and they want to watch it. I don't really want to know what to do or what to say...
