Hi, I’m here to propose that A.A. Milne’s distinctive syntax in the Winnie-the-Pooh books is a major origin of modern Capital Letters Used For Emphasis On The Internet. Observe:

(in which Pooh wryly self-deprecates)

(in which Eeyore masters modern sarcasm)

(in which Eeyore is vagueblogging)

(in which Owl says something i would absolutely type in the YOOL 2017)

(In which Eeyore continues to be a shining example to us all)

(in which Pooh describes a Big Mood)

(in which Piglet has a Relatable Experience)

I could go on, but you can read the books and find your own. It’s a weirdly modern-feeling layer to an old, thoroughly enjoyable story and most of the original Pooh books are online for free. I cited from this online text upload of the book. Enjoy!

okay can we just one last thing

spreading the idea that one is only triggered when having a full blown, system-shut-down panic attack is damaging and delegitimizing to people who have physiologically and emotionally different reactions to triggers.

like slow burning, long lasting unease and fear.

that’s a trigger reaction too.

please stop.

Some other trigger reactions (not an exhaustive list at all, some I’ve experienced, some I’ve known people who’ve experienced):

Feeling disconnected from yourself or the world.

Having any emotional or psychiatric symptom that you’re prone to but don’t always have (depression, hallucinations, delusions, etc.)

Physical symptoms made worse by severe stress or anxiety (I just got diagnosed with adrenal insufficiency, now I know why a sufficiently stressful interaction once left me barely able to breathe without a bipap, lots of chronic illnesses are susceptible to stress, some even have their onset triggered by stress)

Sudden distrust of everyone you interact with or are close to.

Disorientation.

A sense that the bottom has fallen out of the world and you don’t know where things stand anymore, everything seems alien and strange and impossible to navigate.

Inability to identify anything in your surroundings anymore (as in, what’s a chair, what’s a desk, etc.), everything reduced to sensory information only.

Emotional exhaustion.

Feeling keyed up or nervous all the time.

And that’s just off the top of my head.  There’s lots more triggers.  And a trigger can set off a short-term reaction, or a long-term reaction.  The long-term reactions can last for far longer than you’d imagine.  And if a person has the wrong physical illness, a sufficiently strong trigger can even be dangerous to their life — even if it’s not in the form of a total emotional breakdown.

So triggers don’t just come in one form, and they don’t just have one set of effects on the person, or one obvious severity.
