“When we’re triggered, we don’t see things as they are,
we see things through the lens of our pain.”
— Kathryn Nulf, American Therapist
“Feeling triggered isn’t just about something rubbing you the wrong way. For someone with a history of trauma, being around anything that reminds them of a traumatic experience (also know as a “trigger”) can make them feel like they’re experiencing the trauma all over again.”
— Arlin Cuncic (What Does it Mean to be Triggered, very well mind.com)
My favourite therapist says that unless we heal some of our old wounds/trauma’s, we risk carrying those sensitivities forward, and potentially compromising all of our future relationships. Just sayin’ :) Hugs. XO
