Here's one from my chat last night with my oldest and bestest friend of 51 years (met when we were 4 years old). On the phone. Trying to describe for him what it is like to be psychotic for him--I have been psychotic a lot lately. So, I am running through the list of things and then, I say: "You, know, like thinking the government is going through my emails and messages and deleting them and stuff."

"Oh," he says. "Well, they could actually be doing that."

Ha!!!!!!!!!!! He had absolutely no clue how unbelievably triggering and not at all what I needed to hear that was.He is not a fan of the government or NSA or whatever. I think it is funny, actually. Anyhow, just a funny little example of how people sometimes unintentionally trigger us.
