I Don't Need To Panic When.

[Nighthawk]

I seem to have so many stressors and triggers. I need to try remind myself that this is my trauma and not going to harm me. I thought this might be a great p;ace to challange this.

I don't need to panic when I hear a siren on the radio. Or when something makes noise in my house. I don't need to panic if I havent heard from a person in a few ours.

So many more but that is a good start.

I think your doing really well, keep it up. It's hard work, everyday is a new step uve achieved So you should be proud of yourself. No one said it was gonna be easy but stick with it and soon ul start seeing results. Good luck

I don't need to panic either, when my refrigerator makes funny noises. It has taken me awhile to get used to this.

When I see a dog not on a leash or behind a fence.

When I get hungry and it is not time to eat yet, or I am away from home. (I occasionally get low blood sugar if this goes on for a long time).
