Any place that may involve someone seeing me leave, or any time I have to excuse myself from an action or situation. This weekend, it was a triggering meditation and yoga retreat. I was there with a friend. I wasn't able to bring myself to step out once the class started, but I felt obligated to go to the class because I was there with a friend. I've also been having difficulty at the car dealership while trying to buy a car... and then there's the difficult customers at work, or speaking up when I'm triggered at a medical appointment, or leaving when I'm with someone at the store but become triggered... basically, it's any time I might face judgement from someone else for needing to step out of a situation.

When I'm at the store by myself, I'm ok leaving after I put my items back (don't want to piss off the employees who would have to recover the stuff),but if I'm with anyone else, forget it. One-on-one interactions are the worst part, as I feel like I should have a really damn good excuse to leave the person's presence (goes back to my dad never letting me leave if he was being scary, or he'd be more scary)... I can't even physically leave therapy when the instinct is to flee. I just sit there and dissociate, but that's not a good option. T and I are working on at least me being able to tell her when I'm overly triggered by what we are doing.
