I enjoyed this piece, Maria, and I can relate. Being triggered distorts perception. But there's a part of you that recognizes it, which is so key. When it happens with me, I have to allow myself time to heal and regain balance. It's great that you're able to see the experience for what it was, and to respect and care for yourself. Wonderful, too, that you chose to write about it.

I love this, Maria! I have had so many situations like this, but the best part is we get to take care of ourselves in whatever way feels right in the moment. And I love how you process and write about it, analyze your actions and share with the world. Thank you
