trigger at the clinic

[twinkletears]

i went to see my phychiatrist today and i heard someone else saying their history and about their mental state and being in hospital etc etc, i felt my self nearly cry i was triggered by it why i dont know, but i started to get bad thoughts and panic.
does anyone else get like that hearing someones story?

sometimes i get triggered by people when i end up comparing myself with them. but for you it might not be the same reason. sorry you feel so bad *hugs*

Yeah, when people mention hospital and stuff I kind of get triggered. Not to cut, more like a desire just to be back in hospital and being looked after.

I am a peer support worker in two psychiatric wards and I often find myself getting upset at what the patients are telling me. It's important that you talk to someone about how things make you feel and take care of yourself. I'm here if you want to talk.
