MinEda Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Well, I don't know if they count as 'weird' but my triggers include; - people playing with their hands - tapping them on the table or in any other way. - being alone anywhere for a long period of time (4+ hours). - sleeping on my back - which I don't do often, but I sometimes happen to lie that way for a minute and... yeah. - ...

Luna~*~Sith Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 Don't know what triggers are exactly... actually... But I think this one is a trigger, and a really weird one... Shrek 2... Dinner scene... Shrek and the chicken! I felt physically sick and very tired and very tense! I can watch r*pe scenes in movies without it bothering me too much... I can to some extend read about it without it bothering me too much... And then I have a problem with Shrek...?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

missmegan Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 (edited) I used to have triggers Elvis presely songs Men who look like my perps Certain names porn any photos of women/girls in underwear People who talk about the porn industry as if there's nothing wrong with it. men who touch me without permission Sex toys Actually one thing really gets up my nose is catalogues where they have young girls wearing makeup. I hate it with a passion. That's about the only hang up I have these days. Edited September 3, 2007 by missmegan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 My current triggers seem to be; A particular type of vehicle (van) Men with goatees or glasses (major trigger - i'm sure i scowl at every man who resembles him) Situations where i'm not believed insensitive comments from people re rape "jokes" etc rape scenes in movies - not because of the scene per se, but because of the stupid portrayal they seem to have.

Silent2Long Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 I think my weirdest trigger is probably being stuck in traffic. It has absolutely nothing to do with what happened. But it's that sense of being trapped, and not able to get away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
