I think it's just important to do a lot of self talk, never allow yourself to do any self blaming when you struggle. Make it a point to do whatever makes you feel safe and keeping one's self busy is good too. Keep a journal so when you get triggered you can write down whatever you were doing that day and maybe see if you can figure out what triggered you. Give it time. Patience with self is so important.

I can't even imagine how hard it must be for you to live there. You are very brave.
I will keep a journal with me, and I'm always making myself busy...
Thank you so much for your help!
