I have removed toxic people from my life as well. However, people around me still trigger me..But I am working hard to change my mindset to: I allow myself to be triggered vs they trigger me. This gives me the control on how I react. Yes, trust me, it is easier said than done..I am working darn hard ( not to say that you are not working hard ) to change my thought process. I am very much a work in progress and, sure I get triggered, I just need to learn how to adjust and deal with it in my own way. What works for me may not work for you or others. I wish you the best.
