I understand where you are coming from with this. If I get a cut from something that is not SI I get triggered.
I think the important thing for you to remember that it is ok for you to slip if you do. What I mean is don't be harsh on yourself for slipping because you are human, we have feelings and we have moments that are sometimes out of our control. It is important that, even if you slip, to step back and think of how far you've recovered and that what you were feeling at the time of the slip was legitimate.
It is more stressful to focus on the fact that you've slipped instead of thinking 'ok, i did slip, nothing I can do now, time for me to move forward.' what happens in the past already happened, we can't control it. It's how we move forward and learn from it that is truly helpful. I know that is how I try to think about it anyway. I hope that helps :-/
You've taken the steps to recovery which is the hardest part. That no one can take away from you. The important thing is to move forward! <3
