I choose I have good control because I can control my reactions. This does not mean however, that I am in control internally. I think my self-preservation does not really "trigger" anymore because after the life I have led I just don't trust anyone or anything enough to be open enough to have to self perserve.

That sound really complicated but an example is that I finally told my husband I have to believe what my eyes and ears tell me and not what you tell me or I am always going to be in the wild "emotional" and accusitory state. Now that I have accepted that some things are just not they way I want them I am much more at peace than a month ago when I kept trying to belive what people told me that did not fit the facts. Honestly not really the way I want to live but I had to have a break from the intense firestorm of my self-preservation.

Ok that was a big purge looks like Ghosthunter made me think also :)

for myself, very little. I've been to hell and back and the little things don't bother me much anymore.

for my children, any slight.

Lack of sleep combined with irritating activities (such as socializing late at night)

Generally, I don't need to go into that mode. But when I do, those around me never forget.

Moderate things make me preserve myself because I know not to worry as much.

You feel them internally! how do you vent them?

Hmmmm? Describe, if you choose! This life you led that doesn't
create internal to external emotion triggers!

What caused in your life this childhood to adult distrust?
I have a suspicion, but will not assume publicly it!

How many self-preserving storms did you average in a short
period? What triggers them. I suspect more than one
trigger here.

I am glad you choose to bloodlet here. I want to, if you don't
mind! To further this bloodletting.

I suspect many triggers, and some may be too personal for
this post. BE BRave!~

It is natural to be protective of your children. What path
of hell did you go?

Thanks for posting here Prometheus!

The distinction between expressing your internal
feelings completely and blindly when you feel
personally threatened in a emotional, or physical way.

For example, I don't communicate well off line.
No wifi card meant I held negatives in, and thus
found myself unable to leave the house. thus I
started getting venonous....And forced Alex's hand
for that card at all costs possible.

This may help you understand the term self-preservation?

Sincerely,
Ghosthunter

What causes you to react blindly at all costs?

What line of defense must that person cross?

Hmmmm? Is this helping?

Ghosthunter:

I am referring to matters that I can wait out for some time. This makes me increase my composure, and give my thought process a rest to boot.
