I notice that I often have irritations arise when i notice hypocrisy from people or toxic behavior. But the issue is that, even when they are not acting so toxic, these irritating energies are still there. I get irritated, angry and triggered by little things. Likely because I'm seeing and experiencing these repeated toxic behaviors. My husband often blows it off as "well that hasn't happened in a while" or that I am obsessing. He is partially right, I do obsess about it a lot. But I also notice when it hasn't happened for a while it's only because I have chosen not to be around the toxic behaviors as much, but as soon as i am i will get triggered and obsess about it for a while again. And then the part about it " not having happened in a while" goes out the window. My husband doesn't notice these things happening as much though and it doesn't affect him so I feel like I'm left dealing with it on my own. I have talked to him about this and he does defend me a lot but I think he is just wanting me to let it go more and I have a hard time with this. Sometimes I think he may be too avoidant about it. I know that my energy can also be draining for him. I know I've had inner work to do, and i could be wrong but I think a big part of being triggered is just the stress i have been dealing with living with family members that often have toxic behaviors and the dismissal about it from my husband. Even though I don't want to deal with it, I have to for now because they are helping my husband and I to get on our own feet. We are working towards being more self sufficient and independent but relying on these family members to help in the meantime. It's a struggle but it gives me incentive to keep going toward that peaceful dream home where I can truly feel safe, at peace and in more control of my own home space. My husband says I can learn to be happy anywhere, to put up my shield. But I believe that is not totally possible in an environment i don't want to be in. What about people in tougher situations, how could they remain happy? How can I be happy in a place i don't feel comfortable in? Where I often feel stressed? I continuously am working on my energy though. To keep it up as much as I can in the meantime. And to focus more on things that do make me happy. That, i believe, is my breakthrough coming out of this. Just to keep going, working on my own energy and becoming more independent despite the circumstances. But it can be draining for sure.
