I wish you well.
You didn't upset me further I was just in a bad mood. I liked most of what you had to say. To say it isn't common is perfectly understandable and, unless one was in my position, difficult to see how it could be a trigger... I mostly avoided giving into the trigger. And I noticed it.

I have experience, it is like an unspoken taboo. It's hard to explain, hard to understand. There are so many opinions out there that it's hard to know what response you will get if you tell anyone.
In all honesty I haven't heard any of the responses to be negative, more info seeking in order to know how to best offer support.
It is such a rare occurrence and rarely discussed because so few feel able to speak openly about it. I don't. I hate that part of my life, I am still ashamed of it. However a dear friend was very proud of who she was and embraced that side of her life. I'm proud of her for that ability but don't understand it.
Please don't feel saddened in any way by the responses, you will find the kindest and most supportive people on this forum who genuinely want you to be able to feel better even if that means exploring ways you hadn't considered to get there xx
