Try to avoid. But, if shit happens, I try to make the best of it and flush it. :)

I avoid if possible, if that fails I suppress. And if that fails I go back to my ship and vacation on Saturn for a bit

I thought about this a lot before answering. I finally figured out its because I don't fucking know the answer. When triggers happen they feel like bullets hitting me, and well, I just try to get hit in a place where I won't get mortally wounded. Unfortunately I feel like I got hit pretty bad and am life support with no brain activity. Ahhh, but the breathing continues.

It's only now after a long test of hit after hit...I can suppress them.
That is really hard.
Sometimes I suffer for a day or so after cos I'm sure it affects the Lithium.
Like if someone's verbally abusing in the City etc I don't say anything.It's like controlling a tide inside.
Next day it's a weird doped feeling.

I feel so glad I don't react anymore.To redneck type drunks
