Not with that song, but with avril levign's Im with you, yeah it does cause that was playing the first time i cut, i now make sure im really safe if im gonna listen to it, when it comes on the radio i get kinda spacy and all thinky.

Yeah; it's a very triggery song. I also get that when I listen to "Crawl" by Alkaline Trio. It's strange... music is one of the main things that triggers me.

I think most people have songs like that. I don't strangely enough, because most songs do trigger some emotion in me, but none trigger SI

Actually, everytime cheers me up for some weird reason.

But I can totally see why it might make you feel worse. From my knowledge of associated memories, it might help if you start trying to listen to your trigger song or, at least, thinking about a couple of the lines in a safe happy place.

That way you might diminish the trigger-effect of it and it means if it comes on in public, at school or whatever, it will have less of an effect.

Only a suggestion though. :) Feel free to ignore it! lol!
