But I guess this could be an opportunity for me to change the way I look at the word - associate it with the music instead.

Have you thought about writing down how all of this makes you feel, and then using it as an article or work it into an assignment at school?

Surely there are others that are triggered over the same events and they're feeling like no one understands. Some might've never heard of PTSD.

This could be your opportunity to share with them that they are not alone and that their feelings are valid. Let them know how one simple word can trigger both an emotional and physical reaction and that it's ok.

Like they say, gotta feel to heal.
