  1. @lilytheamazingfaintingpony ...is very common to go to extreme lengths to avoid stimuli that "triggers" memories of the traumatic situation. (Stimuli is here meant everything you see, touch, hear and so on). A joke example I once saw was: Plastic palm in office -> "Gooks in the treeline..." (Yeah, I know that term is really offensive, but it was what GIs called them during the Vietnam War)
