I came on PC today because I just had an embarrassing crying reaction to a trigger. I'm sorry either of us had to experience it, but glad that we can share because Infeel so much better knowing someone else goes through this.
I would've had the same reaction you did in the theater. I stiffen up whenever there are angry voices, even on the TV. It's an automatic reaction. Your brain doesn't know the difference between a play and real life; it had to learn to react really fast a long time ago so the association is instantaneous. I don't think we can stop these reactions by will alone. In time they may get less dramatic as we heal, but it's not like we can just stop.
