Triggers

At the surface how people are coping with the first major global pandemic in modern history might not align with the mission of Survivors to Thrivers.  Covid-19 is only the current example of how a pressing uncertainty might encourage self-isolation to protect ourselves and others, but ends up magnifying the underlying stresses of our daily existence.  The anxiety and fear of whether something will happen is known as catastrophizing, and compounds the normal triggers and limited belief we bravely tackle every day.  This is particularly true for those of us who have suffered traumatic events in our lives like sexual abuse.
