Have any of you agreed with your T on some 'non-verbal sign' you can give them when you're triggered (I'm thinking of during flashbacks or when you start dissociating, but could be for other things as well of course)?
If so, would you mind sharing what you've come up with?

We're currently trying to find one for me, I often have difficulties to talk when I start having flashbacks. But I'd want to let my T at least know that there's something going on. Currently he's only really able to reliably catch it once I'm already way too upset. I think he would possibly be able to recognize my eyes starting to look different but since I have them closed almost constantly, that doesn't really work either. So we're trying to come up with something I can do to let him know.
Any ideas are welcome.
