Like the title says.
I need one to happen.
I cannot concentrate.
I cannot focus.
Thinking is difficult and my processing speed is greatly lowered. Lag has set in.
I need to trigger an emotional overload.
Regular methods aren't working.
Please help me.

Okay, you literally did ask for it. I don't agree with what I'm about to say, but you did ask for it, so here you go.

Don't you know of anything that typically sets you off?

I just think about how rumours and gossip spread around about me by people online and where I live have stopped me from ever finding anyone to be with when I am actually a very loving person who just wanted someone special to love. Now I will spend the rest of my life alone because of other peoples nastiness and spite. It pretty much puts me into suicidal mode as they are allowed to get away with spreading rumours that are not true, ruining peoples lives, and nothing is done about it.

People avoid me like I am some kind of criminal and the men around here try to treat me like I am the local free prostitution service when I am not that kind of person and I have never hurt anyone.

Yet I get to watch women who do sleep around and women who are manipulative, vicious and nasty find love. It doesn't seem fair.

Do you have a similar trigger...

Alternatively I can stress myself out by thinking about the DWP trying to push me back into work before I am ready and at a time where I am having trouble coping with basic functioning let alone having to deal with all the social politics of being on the work force.

Urgh...

That sets off a mixture of anger, hurt, upset, frustration, fear....and pressure building....

Find several triggers (remember traumatic events!, think about stuff that depresses or angers you? break something you love and are attached to? disrupt one of your own routines repeatedly?) then go to a crowded supermarket and try to do some shopping...if that won't set one off I don't know what will.

Why do you want to trigger one anyway? I usually try to avoid mine.

Depending on what you do during your emotional overloads, I don't think encouraging myself to smack myself on the head will do me any favours. Nor will the screaming as I am sure the neighbours use that to fire up some of the rumours. Better to deprive them of gossip worthy material, although in such an instance they tend to concoct their own instead...

Is this a real thing you are trying to do? I don't understand.

Are you trying to eliminate anxiety and distraction so you can enter a zen state?'

I don't understand either RedEnigma. I would like to understand what you need. Can you explain it better?

-Drink hard liquors
-Put duct tape on a hairy part of your body.
-Watch a sad movie

As you're about to cry, remove duct tape as fast as you can.

Works everytime.

I think he's looking for a release like crying. I completely get that.

I would say the best bet is what Fogpatrol said though I can't say I've tried duct tape.

Just talk to an NT, that should do the trick.

Yeah that's what I personally interpreted from it. Sometimes people who have triggered one of my outbursts of distress tell me after that they feel bad for triggering it and apologise, but I say I am glad they did trigger it because as a result all the anxiety and mental pain that was mounting up was let out and now I am calm, and I wanted the calm in order to just get on with stuff. Although I think what causes emotional overload is different for different people so I wouldn't know what to suggest to the OP, without knowing anything about them or their current situation?

Wow people actually apologise to you? I get thoroughly shamed for it, and shame is what I associate with it. All I want to do is hide.
