Thanks for all that much appreciated.
I basically do all those things when I'm triggered here - go for a walk, go online and vent. Some of the problem is it depends on what day it happens - our recpetionist is partime 12 noon to 4pm but now is only on 3 days a week due to work being quiet. So usually I'm on front reception on those days and when she is in I have a back office that I spend the afternoons in which is great because when I'm triggered I paly soothing music to calm me down like John Butler Trio, Pinkfloyd etc etc and that really helps. When I cant escape reception I go to the loo and do breathing excercises to calm me down.
Can anyone suggest ways of getting over triggers likefor me yelling. Is it a matter of constant exposure to overcome it or is there another way?? Obviously I need to get over this some how just wondering on ways to do this. Or is it more of a struggle when its part of PTSD?
