What are triggers?
Triggers are things that rise up in our lives that put us on the edge of acting out. These things might be stress, anxiety, work or relationships. When these things in our life begin to go South, we can expect a trigger to flair up. Sometimes triggers are memories of the past or an old neighborhood stomping ground, maybe the way the sky looks on a certain day, maybe something someone says. When triggers start to flair it is important for us to have an escape plan in place to counter these.
What are boundaries?
Boundaries are items in our lives that keep us from acting out sexually. Like a fence that protects a piece of property, boundaries that we intentionally put in place keep us from losing our sexual sobriety.
What kinds of boundaries do you have?
My certain boundaries are:
> Keeping filters on the internet or password protecting and knowingly having people around when I am on the internet.
> Not sitting behind a computer unless someone is around, or not being on the Internet in an isolated place.
> Walking past sexually charged magazines.
> If I am pushing my boundaries, asking myself "whats up or whats going on in my life" that is causing me to push the boundaries.
The hope is to continually stay sexually sober.
