I know why we do it etc. I just find it so triggering and so difficult to complete. I just don’t know how to deal with all the pain, feelings and flashbacks it brings. <BR /> <BR /> how do others here deal with this kind of thing? </P> Sat, 18 Jul 2020 13:53:46 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/ptsd-and-trauma/dealing-with-triggers-at-work-etc-past-abuse/m-p/475640#M16105 Guest_1211 2020-07-18T13:53:46Z https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/ptsd-and-trauma/dealing-with-triggers-at-work-etc-past-abuse/m-p/475641#M16106 <P>Hi welcome</P> <P>My daughter was a teacher and now can no longer teach due to ptsd and bipolar. </P> <P>In terms of triggers and work stresses can I recommend a few threads to read.

I teach year 11/12 and feel like all the protections we put in place for students almost work against their safety in terms of their relationships with people who can help them. <BR /> I am completing my child safety modules/refreshers and they just trigger me and my own experiences so much but also fill me with fear and sadness for what humanising relationships these ‘protections’ also take away for our students.</P> Sun, 19 Jul 2020 14:17:46 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/ptsd-and-trauma/dealing-with-triggers-at-work-etc-past-abuse/m-p/475642#M16107 Guest_1211 2020-07-19T14:17:46Z https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/ptsd-and-trauma/dealing-with-triggers-at-work-etc-past-abuse/m-p/475643#M16108 <P>Hi again</P> <P>just checking in to see how you are. </P> <P>I hope you’ve improved</P> <P>TonyWK</P> Wed, 22 Jul 2020 10:48:21 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/ptsd-and-trauma/dealing-with-triggers-at-work-etc-past-abuse/m-p/475643#M16108 white knight 2020-07-22T10:48:21Z https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/ptsd-and-trauma/dealing-with-triggers-at-work-etc-past-abuse/m-p/475644#M16109 <P>Thanks Tony.</P> <P>...struggling a bit.
