Body triggers
Does anyone know a way around body triggers? Should I wear baggy clothes so I don’t notice myself so much? I try not to pay attention to the triggers, but it’s like I can’t. :(

Instead of thinking your body features as triggers, maybe you can think about them as an opportunity of ERP. Best way to deal with a fear is to challenge it, to show it you are not afraid. I heard a saying "if fear is the problem, then fear is the solution."

@zzyyxx You’re right, I just struggle with ERP, it’s insanely frightening… but it’s the only way to get better

Triggers
My boyfriend keeps triggering my intrusive thoughts on purpose to mess with me. I've explained how bad they are to him before but i guess he just doesn't get it. He finds it funny when I have such a visceral reaction to him reminding me of them. I hope it doesn't sound too silly but body horror really freaks me out and this one image haunts me so bad when I remember it and he knows that, I trusted him with that knowledge but he loves to just yell out what it is to mess with my head. Now it'll flow in and out of my head for days and I'm gonna have trouble sleeping tonight. Usually distraction works but this one is particularly strong. Does anyone have any good coping skills or tips for going to sleep when it keeps haunting you?
