TRIGGER C PTSD
I’ve come to the realisation that I have trauma which has now affected me… I get triggered when disrespected and feel I have to always defend myself or it will cause me distress and to feel weak if I don’t.
however Im tired of constantly having to defend myself and being in fight , flight or freeze mode it’s literally crippling. The anxiety has gotten so bad that my throat starts to burn.

Hi Saturday
I am happy to hear that you have realised what is going on. We often live with this for years without knowing. Knowing is the first step to doing something about it.
It is normal to want approval, acceptance and connection and it can mess us up when we don't get it, and yes being constantly in flight/fight/freeze mode is crippling and exhausting. 💛
