Everyone of us has gone through this...those moments where you’re going about your day, you’re fine — and then you're not; something happens: a comment, a look, a memory, a tone of voice. Your chest gets tight. Your mind is racing. You shut down or you explode, and you don’t even really know why.
That, my friend, is what we call being triggered. A trigger is not weakness. A trigger is not proof you’re failing. A trigger is an alarm system.
Y’all, triggers are not the problem. They’re the invitation.
