I refuse to let triggers mess with my enjoyment of life and stuff.

So recently I've been wanting to watch a series about movies and the writer presenter has the same accent as my dad. Much to my surprise this totally triggered me. So much I couldn't bear to watch. It made me reject the whole thing. And then a pride thing started up too. 😔

This is bad, real bad, the series has real value and I want to watch it.

So I figure I will desensitise myself , I used to visit that country all the time, hear the accent all time and it never bothered me. I can do that again. So I will watch heaps of movies and series in that language until it's just a language, not a person.

It's my brain, dammit an I will not have it hijacked 🤬😂😵🥴😀
