I have observed my triggers using mundfulness and acceptance and they have gradually lost their power or emotional content. They were so powerful I would shake for hours at a time. My nervous system had erupted and death painful excruciating death seemed around the corner. I distrusted people in general and stayed home when i could.
Then using mindfulness things began to lighten up. My focus was improving and my quiet time became much more relaxed and enjoyable. Then one day I ventured out and began to rejoin the human race. There was a set back or two but I kept improving and my triggers bothered me but I stayed calm. One day I felt totally normal I thought. My memory could not figure out what caused my social anxiety. Wish it would of lasted but it was a small insight of what was ahead. Now my triggers are there but just not important. I have adopted this intention Live with Ease Help others live with ease good Luck Posted on 11/06/09, 02:11 pm |

Wow! No one has any problems with triggers, intrusive thoughts, panic attacks or PTSD
It puzzles me that there is so little interest in taking action and progressing with this disorder. Ptsd keeps us in our little boxes and we stay there afraid to venture out. It is to risky to get better. Nothing has worked so far so months pass. How long have you had this disorder and are you doing anything to change it. This disorder does not go away but progresses and gets stronger and worse with time. Doing nothing is a conscious decision and it has consequences also. Not to late to get motivated and get a direction and plan together. Some people live therir whole lives like this. Wasting what precious time we have on this planet.

I DO!
I have triggers! They are called my parents! So a lot of my triggers trace back to a lot of things regarding them. there's also some triggers that I have that I'm not sure about yet,, hopefully I'll find out what they are so that I can disarm them! I also have anxiety due to my triggers, and occasionally I even have panic attacks.. and since some of it has to do with past stuff, and is still affecting me now,it is PTSD, sometimes the reasons are clear (because Im actually experiencing something stressful or upsetting at the time, or Im in a circumstance that reminds me of a stressful time from the past, or something like that) other times, it happens for no good apparent reason. Obviously theres stuff I need to uncover, and deal with, and Im working on that, and thats one of the reasons Im here! Sounds like we have some stuff in common, and hopefully we can help each other with that! by the way, I love your avatar LOL
