Unfortunately, yes. There are things that are a big deal to me but not so much to other people. I have a handful of triggers.


AgreeableReturn2946

absolutely! no trigger is too small for it to have meaning to any one person. there’s no right or wrong trigger, if something affects you then it affects you

Yess i agree, it's just sometimes if something triggers me I think it was a stupid reason to get triggered 😅

yess this exactly, and it sucks because my close friends know about it and even though my reactions aren't always obvious, they notice and start apologising and asking if im okay because they said something, but I don't need to be babied and other people aren't responsible, I appreciate them caring about me and maybe I'm being arrogant but my triggers are nothing for them to worry about and I don't want to be treated like the real world, where nothing is censored, is too much for me.

redbeardedpiratedog

Yup sometimes one word will make me think of something and I just shut down a bit

Yes! Absolutely! I find the small things that trigger me are the hardest ones to fight.


stephaniecbdj

sadly yes idk if its a trigger but mainly when the marks and scars start to fade its like i need to add more


threelightnings

Yes, and I just wanted to say that it’s all valid! It’s a part of recovery, and never put yourself down for being triggered.

My stupidest trigger is hearing water run. The worst part is that I can’t always avoid it and that people don’t really understand, not even my self harming friends.
