Reply to "Holloween Triggers"

Shrinklady,
I wanted to add my thanks to JM's. I don't find Halloween particularly triggering, but I am very aware of being careful what kind of movies I watch from having been badly triggered in the past by them. So, especially if I'm doing deep work, I stay away from certain types of movies knowing I can't handle them. That's when I get out all my Jane Austen flicks.

Ironically enough, my husband loves horror movies, but gets that there not always my favorite, so I'll sit with him but I read a book or do something else to distract myself. But I think its a very important topic for people with trauma in their background to be aware of.
