I never knew what a "trigger" really was until today. I'll choose not to say what it was, because this feeling I wouldn't want to give to anyone else. But gah, the heavy chest, deep breathing, internal shaking, the spacing out/intent focus on only that. Wow. I just never really knew...
I'm not going to act on it, but, wow. |

It took a little while for me, as well, to understand what trigger meant. I had a difficult time imagining myself becoming overwhelmed by simply reading a post. So naive!
  Then, I got triggered and quickly understood why there was such a thing as a "trigger warning" & appreciated it! That is a very scary, strange and surreal feeling. I don't like it. I often have a difficult time snapping out of it as well. (((tealBumblebee)))
