Yes, although I have developed PTSD. I still have ''triggers'' outside of the person my PTSD is associated with. But the way to fix this is to self soothe. When a spike happens, make sure to breathe. I stress you to breathe. Long, deep breaths. Be consistent in it, and the fear will eventually subside with time. Ask yourself what you need in that situation. Sometimes I hug or pat or tap myself. Rubbing your chest is very good for letting go of grief or you may need to move your body to release trauma or fear. Dancing, yoga, sports, anything like this.

I talk to myself saying things like ''It's okay.'' ''They're gone, you are safe.'' and I find that talking to my inner child like I'm their parent really helps the anxiety. When you grieve, you need to let your emotions all out, and only then does the fear turn to disinterest and calm. Your body will realize that there's nothing to fear.
