Nuu, just saw your post. Abrazos. As others expressed, cruelty to animals is very triggering for me and reminds me of some of the darkest moments of my own childhood.
Anger--and wanting to numb out that anger--was a huge trigger for me in the past and behind a lot of my binge drinking. One small epiphany I've had in my journey thus far is that I cannot always control these triggers, but I can control how I react to them. It may sound petty and trite, but I often think, "I'm not going to let THIS so and so, of all people, compromise my sobriety--they aren't worth it." It is a little mind game, but helps me in the roughest patches.
Wishing you well and sending you healing energy.
