    After Being Strongly Triggered, How Long Does It Take To Recover?

    For me it depends on the trigger as I'm more sensitive about some things than others and it's harder for me to calm down around other people unless they know just what to say. A mild trigger can take me a few hours to a day. A serious trigger can last a few days. I'm just getting over a big one...
