I Feel Like The Only One - Triggered By Movie/TV Content

[Inkiing]

Just took a look thru some of the replies and thought I’d let you know there’s an app called “Does The Dog Die?” And it’ll show you which movies and shows contain certain triggers, I use it quite a bit, maybe this can help?

Hi. I'm new here. I'm scared to type this post. My anxiety has gotten so bad but I have to.
I'm a survivor of abuse as a child and for years I have had a lot of trouble with certain content in movies, on tv, hearing peers talk. I get very upset and feel like I'm not human because I don't feel "normal" like everyone else seems to feel. I also get angry because as a female, I feel objectified and less than. I feel victimized all over again, I guess you could say. So I don't watch anything new, I don't go to see anything new. I'm buried in habit.
I've observed other survivors in the past and it seemed to me that no one else has the same feelings about this content.
I was just triggered recently completely out of the blue and that propelled me to do this. I'm trying to filter what I say, so I hope I'm making sense. Thanks.

im 17 and have cptsd and i dont watch live action tv anymore because watching it makes me very anxious. ive also had multiple instances of psychosis because for some reason my brain attaches to the show i watch and i start to think im in the show. its really strange. ive never heard anyone else say anything like this so. cartoons for life
