Steve Irwin triggers me.

K

So, I'm just gonna get right into it. I was molested when I was 9. It happened while The Crocodile Hunter was playing on TV. All these years since, I haven't felt much anxiety about it except for occasional awkward situations. But lately, and especially since the explosion of Steve Irwin memes all over the internet (guess it's the anniversary of his death?), I've realized I have a trigger. I can't see or hear or talk about Steve Irwin without getting flashbacks and getting super panicky and uncomfortable.

17 years later, and I'm just now feeling anxious about it.

Anyone else been through trauma and have triggers like this?
