I've discovered (again, because I used to know this) that certain body functions are very triggering. It had dissipated for a while, but it's back again. Does that happen to anyone else? It's frustrating because there's nothing I can do to stop it. I'm trying to figure out how to talk myself down from it. I'm not sure how I got it to Not be so disturbing for a while... I have to figure that out.

Umm... I think so.

I get really upset when my teeth start chattering. I still compulsively open my mouth so that my teeth can't clack when they chatter. I used to get yelled at for my teeth chattering even if I wasn't complaining about being cold in the car.

I tried talking about it with my T today, but I think her focus was elsewhere, because she acknowledged what I had said, and moved right along with her questioning (we were catching up and formulating a treatment plan for the next few weeks). It's kinda frustrating because it's something that's very much present right now, and I'm trying to stay more balanced.

Wow, I thought I was the only one! But yes, that happens to me too - and somedays, it's unbearable. I'm really sorry that your T didn't focus on your concerns, but if you ever want to talk about it, feel free to message me I have hope that these triggering body functions will get easier to manage and cope with over time, just keep hanging in there

More things are popping up as triggers. I can't figure out of its the uncertainty I have going on right now or the ptsd rating it's ugly head again. I'm at a loss. One thing dissipates and another thing takes its place. I feel like I'm in a revolving door of triggers from my own body. I hope I can talk to my t about it on Friday, but it's so far away. :/
Even grounding isn't working with this stuff because I barely have time to register it starting before I'm off and running with the flashbacks.ugh.
