Re: TRIGGERRED!!!!!
You're able to see you've been triggered which means you can tell that it is because something is reminding you of something that has happened in the past. That means that today it is not happening, even though your body might be feeling like it is.
Today it is the 24th of November 2017. It is not happening today ❤
Hard though. Really hard.

Re: TRIGGERRED!!!!!
Running around might have helped release some of that big fear response, even if it doesn't feel like has.
Reluctant to suggest anything because you work through triggers so often. You do work through them (is my point) and you do get through them. You can do this and it is highly likely this will not last forever, even if it feels like it will right now.
Hope it settles for you soon.

Re: TRIGGERRED!!!!!
Sometimes when I am big time shaky, wrapping myself in my blanket (across my shoulders and around my front) and sitting tightly in a ball on the floor (knees to my chest, arms around my knees etc) can help me feel secure and safe. Then I ride it out knowing my body is not designed to last in such a state forever.
Have to head off now. You've got this, even if it doesn't feel like it. Sorry it's so hard right now though.
Big hugs 💗

Re: TRIGGERRED!!!!!
Hi @outlander
I am sorry you are triggered - I have no idea what that trigger was at this stage but an anxiety attack is no fun
I read this some time back and I certainly hope you have settled by now - having your family move out will register high on your stress scale because it seems as if it can only be all good but it is actually a culture shock and I get it
All the best - hugs from Granny Dec
