All,

this post should have been entitled Being triggered or just plain angry...Not PLAN angry...when I'm triggered planning is the last thing on my mind!

I loved the definition of triggered as feeling unsafe and the feeling as being (located) down in one's soul. That makes total sense for me.

I do think I'm learning to understand the "angry here and now" and triggered into something from the past. Both of them can make me feel like I cannot focus and lose the ability to respond in a kind, conscious compassionate way.

Clarity, at least, is coming!
