I am learning everyday to go beyond what triggers me.

Overcoming trauma is hard work. I have been face to face with the traumas of my past, some still torment me and some I have gotten over. There have been and still are moments when I got triggered and couldn’t understand why I was feeling the way I did.

Childhood traumas can be buried in the subconscious mind and be totally forgotten. I am learning what triggers me and why they do. Before I would react in a way that seemed to be as if I was blowing things out of proportion. Now I know why my traumas affect me the way they do.

It’s ground breaking when you come to realize what makes you tick and what your weaknesses are. I am learning to accept those situations that trigger me. I am proud of the work that I have put in to get past most of my childhood traumas and I have accepted those that I still need to work on.

I know that there will always be something that triggers me. I have come a long way from when I reacted unknowingly to where I know why I react the way I do. I am patient with myself, I accept my limits and my difficulties. I am dedicated to putting in the hard work that it takes to continue seeing future results.
