To find out our triggers we need to start being aware of our reactions. We really need to sit back and work out if our reaction really was justified. Chances are if you felt your heart rate spike quickly in response to your child, then you were triggered. When you are calm and able to think about what might have been your underlying reason for being angry. Was it anger? or was it hurt, sadness or fear? Be real with yourself, remember we can't change what we don't acknowledge. When we really look at our thoughts and feelings behind these situations we might be surprised at how unrealistic they are, but that's because they were an automatic response and we weren't able to think through them at the time.

Common thoughts behind our triggers could be:

You don't respect me

this is not convenient

I don't know what to do

I can't cope

I feel unappreciated

I expect you to do more than you can

I can't do what I want to do

If you wonder, should I go to therapy? The answer is YES! Everyone can benefit from going to therapy just like you can benefit from seeing a doctor and a dentist. I have clients that say “I don’t understand why people don’t go to therapy”. I’m here to help but most important is to find the therapist who is best for YOU!

I don't wear (rainbow emoji) items to tell you who's in my bed. I wear (pride flag emoji, trans flag emoji) so the family across the street knows they are safe. So the couple in the restaurant know they aren't alone. So the boy who sees me notice him looking at dresses knows I won't judge. I wear pride (because) you make them hide. End ID].
