What are your triggers?
I have found that over the years I am still learning my triggers. They range from large crowds with little elbow room, to a traffic jam on a bridge. What are some of your triggers and how do you manage them?
Trigger Discussion
Feel free to discuss triggers here. Tell us some of your triggers, ask questions about triggers, let us know what you do to help with your triggers.
All triggers all the time! Excited to hear from everyone, I am certain that we all have different perspectives on these!
PTSDDaddy #TriggerTuesdays Invisible Triggers 20 March 2018

NEW Trigger Tuesdays 6 Feb 2018

PTSDDaddy – Facebook Live or YouTube? Topics?
The ultimate question... To Facebook Live or to YouTube Live, that is the question. While Facebook Live has it's benefits of wearing funny masks and emoji, YouTube has the benefit of being easier to share on the Blog. I wanted to hear from you...
Driving a Moving Truck
The other day, I was moving a bed for my wife. She had a sleep numbers bed once, and now an opportunity to get another gave me a need to rent a moving truck. We have nothing big enough to transport a bed, let alone a king size bed. So off to the rental I go... I...

#PTSDDaddy on Death
I'm Death and Distruction! As a combat veteran, I will tell you that my PTSD comes from nothing that includes bad guys dying. Even with that I can at least justify in my mind why good men die while at war. I can tell myself "they were grown adults, they knew what...
#PTSDDaddy and masks and everything in between.
Don't Wear a Mask... Wear a Mask! It's funny how, when all of this COVID-CRAP started, I had a discussion with my wife on masks. With what she has going on in life we decided that she needed to be cautious and we purchased masks via Amazon we were just waiting for the...

PTSDDaddy #TriggerTuesday Tag Team Triggers
Tag Team Triggers What do I mean by tag team triggers? I'm talking about when it seems like triggers are happening left and right one after another even at the same time. Many triggers vs. ONE me. I don't know about all of you, but I've had those odds before. I won...

PTSDDaddy Nothing is Fucking Easy
My father always asked me “how come you always pick the hard path?” I said, “because the easy path doesn’t go where I want.”
