How can I learn my triggers?

Consider talking to someone about the last time you felt "triggered." It may help to consult a healthcare professional, like a physician, regarding how to best identify and manage your triggers.

You will learn them when u talk to people. And when I start feeling anxious or feel like ur going to break down when ur on the subject then u now that is one of ur triggers

Experience the world little by little. You'll never know if something triggers you if you've never experienced it.

Reflecting on previous setbacks or times where you were feeling a certain way, and taking not of what and who was around you can help! Those that are common occurrences in these times are often triggers!

Biofeedback is a good way to start. Learn how your body reacts to certain stimuli and then you will find what your triggers are.

You can start noticing situations or even specific words/pictures that make you feel angry/sad/anxious or depressed and try to remember them or even write them down. As the time progresses you will know what you need to work on or avoid.

I have learned my triggers by experiencing them. I am aware now of what I can and cannot handle. I'm still learning small things about which sets my anxiety off though.

I have found it helpful to keep a journal with me. Both to keep myself organized and to have a place to put things that bother me when I have other things to do. When I find a thing that triggers me I make a note. Perhaps not at the moment but when I have calmed. It helps me place triggers in the proper context. They are not the trauma itself but only a echo of what happened. Echos can't hurt me. I hope this helps. I wish you peace. ~J

My best advice would be to keep a journal. Make it very detailed. You cannot learn your triggers if you are very vague. Write down everything. If something is said or done that makes you feel any type of negative, then write down exactly what was said or done and then exactly how you felt. Describe to yourself exactly what happened to the best of your ability. At the end of the day or even the week, go over the journal and see if there are any reoccurring themes This is really a great tool! I hope this helps!

You can learn them through online websites, such as this one. Maybe go through life, write down a few things that made you feel any strong negative emotion.
