*sighs*
I have no idea why I'm writing this besides the need to scream it out.
I triggered today, something I have not done in ages. For those of you who don't recognize the term 'trigger' in this context, it's basically when something happens that brings back a particularly painful memory that would be better left not thought of. I'm not going to get into mine. It's not something I tell people about because I ultimately take shit back for something that happened eight years ago. I mean, you can tell me all you want what I *should* have done, I can't go back and re-do it, k?
Anyway, I was talking to someone at work who said something completely unrelated (in his mind) and it just triggered me. I somehow made it through the rest of the shift without crying, but by the time I got in my truck to come home, I was in absolute tears.
I wish there was some term for 'Something really horrid happened, I was reminded of it, and now if you don't mind, I need to be upset for a bit' only not so long.
Some things I guess people can get past but not over.
Thanks.
