  3. Day 14.

    Yesterday I started reading YBOP and while it's very interesting I feel I'm triggered by it and feel i shouldn't read it. Does anyone else get triggered like this?

    In my experience there are some things that can be really big triggers for me but it doesnt mean they can be for others , so in those cases I usually try to avoid those things because in my case they can be a danger in a moment of weakness. I hope that helps hehe . ;)

    Day 100. Still going strong, but a long while till the next update. So I dropped by to wish That you find yourselves in this journey and take control. Stay strong lads.
     
  7. Day 2 complete. I've been spending a lot of time as an Orc, heh.

    I have to read a novel for one of my classes that has a few scenes which I wouldn't call "graphic," exactly, but the language can be explicit. As I was grinding through another chapter today I felt that the material could be triggering to me, or at least that it might put me in a mindset to be more easily triggered. I got through the reading just fine, but first I took a few moments to pull my head out of that space and deliberately center myself to be conscious of the temptations.

    I personally struggled to get a meditation habit working for me. What did help me eventually was to start very small, with 1-2 minute meditations. If you're better with sitting still you could also start with 5 minutes, or whatever feels comfortable. Having a fixed time also helps, I do it first thing in the morning. I like to use an app for a timer, "Insight Timer" at the moment. The app also has some guided meditation if you don't like sitting in silence :)
    I also usually have a mantra for the day. Something like "today I feel good about myself" and repeat that in my head while meditating.
    Good luck with your practice :)

    Day 18

    Okay day, killed some frustration with a shower and cleaning. I'm very happy that my mind gave me a productive and not destructive way out :)
