triggered by your own body?

possible trigger, body talk

I dont really don't like looking in the mirror, sometimes its scary other times it triggers me into a hate spell. What I see looking back at me doesn't look real. It makes some of us really mad.

Not sure how common it is but when I was younger I often would mistaken it for someone elses body, as the one I thought I had looked very different in the mirror. I have been able to come to terms that I live in there though, but it still is kinda hard to come to terms with. I guess for some reason the body is a trigger, Im still trying to find out why. Many of the others have an idealized notion of how the body looks based on what they feel is right for them. A few have realized the real body is different and are very angry about it.

Any way, to Johny-Jack, Im sorry about the mirror. I hope that it becomes less of a problem for you and any others who are triggered by it. Reality is scary but also rewarding too, best wishes

Triggers.....

I am often very triggered by my body. Because I resemble certain people I'd rather not resemble. So depending on who I'm co with different body parts will react with different intense emotion. Sometimes I can't look in the mirror without wanting to beat the crap out of myself.

We have a hatred of being a female in very many parts, so from that perspective, a lot of things about the body are triggering.

Gawd I hated my vagina, it being there, how it looks for so long. Getting a piercing changed it for so much better, funny thing! You know, probably the whole 'reclaiming' thing, 'making the body you are in REALLY your own' and some such.
