Triggers

Why

Why should I have to go to school. Primary. Then secondary. Then uni. Only so I can have a 'good' husband

​I can't be out of school more than a day and all the relatives will already be asking when the wedding is

Why should my being out of school finally mean marriage. Sure I'm not one of those 'work hard to be ahead girls ' but why should my working toward anything be only about school or being ahead of someone else

Some quick triggers can be situations in school as well as environments! PIck supportive people to hang around so they can keep you positive! :)

What can be a Trigger?

- injuries

- chemicals that one is exposed to via the environment, both natural and synthetic

- other illnesses, both acute and chronic

- emotional stress, both good and bad

- activity including exercise and repeatitive movement

- lack of sleep

- cold and hot temperatures as well as a temperature change

- atmospheric pressure changes

- pressure on the body, for example socks with tight elastic or sitting on a hard surface

Trigger to Signs & Symptoms

The timing from the exposure to the trigger to the development of symptoms and/or signs of the condition includes a huge range. Sometimes the effect of a trigger can be seen almost immediately, occuring within seconds or minutes. Quite a few can take hours or a few days. I have heard of some triggers even taking months for the effects to occur, which can make identifying a trigger quite difficult.
