Have you ever wondered how you can be totally fine one minute and the next thing you know… someone does or says something or something happens and boom you are triggered to the point of your emotions taking over your entire body. How you are instantly flooded with anxiety, or the tears come from this guttural place or you can’t think straight, and more often than not, words come out of your mouth that you later regret?
