Triggers; now that's a difficult one to avoid. It's truly amazing how triggers work. I remember when I was in hospital on the psych ward for depression, and had these ugly blankets, I was discharged and later visited a friend who was in the same hospital and in the same unit that I had been in, and the moment I saw the ugly blankets - - instant triggers back to the psych floor days. I could barely concentrate on our conversation because I kept looking at these stupid blankets. Just one thing can set you off.

This also happened when one thing would set me off if it triggered anything to do with the person that abused me. Took so long to get over this. I say I am over all of this, but I still get triggered, I just don't fall apart. Keep working kiddo, it's a tough road and keep in touch and keep working with your therapist, she/he sounds like the right person. Hugs.
