go with your gut feelings about whether you should go re triggers.
but, jme, this is wonderful they are doing this. there may be college students that will go that have symptoms they discuss and that may result in their getting help rather than hiding their differences from everybody. i was so relieved when i finally had a term that explained me. up til then i projected a happy outgoing individual to everyone cause i didn't know what made me feel different. inside i was soooo depressed. it took an enormous amount of mental energy to keep up this facade. but i felt i had to do that so no one would know about my depression. everything seemed so easy for others and for me it took great effort to cope. i was ashamed that i didn't know how to deal with things like they did. now i'm me, better, and can really smile, and mean it.
