Re: Am I right or wrong? (TW: Abuse)

Do triggers just "go away"?

Not all on their own, no. But it's not unreasonable to expect that eventually you'll be able to come to terms with what happened and be able think of your father without feeling *triggered*. This usually requires quite a bit of mental work/coping/dealing/sometimes therapy on the part of the triggered, though.

And even then, that doesn't mean you have to forgive him or ever want to talk to/see him again.

I completely agree. Nobody wakes up one day and says out of the blue, "I want to see my abuser today! It won't give me even an iota of bad and I'm glad we'll be seeing each other!"

Unless they had a complete and total memory loss of being abused.
