So sorry you are feeling triggered @
cinnamonsun and I hope you are able to take some time to self-care, process with your T, self-reflect, and figure out what was behind the triggering event or events that reminded you of something negative from your past, or something you might be struggling with in your present.
Sometimes we all need a break, too, from constant processing of mental health stuff.
I've needed a break at times when I needed to focus on what makes me feel like life has purpose beyond this constant coping and managing my mental illnesses, such as having fun playing logic games, or being productive in organizing my apartment (a new project I created), or reaching out to friends in real life to see if I could cheer them up or just touch base and have a very casual conversation about nothing.
Anyways, I hope you are able to cope and heal, and I hope you return here when you are ready. (((safe wishes, hugs, and thoughts sent your way)))
PS: Thank you for helping me in other threads.
