[QUOTE="HaoZi, post: 422782"] The weather. The color of the walls/ceiling/floor. What they did (or did not) eat today or yesterday. The look their sibling just gave them. The volume of the TV. The smell of their shampoo. The phase of the moon. What medications they did/did not take today. That annoying shirt tag/sock seam. Humidity. Where they would rather be as opposed to where they are. What test they're worried about (math, science, pregnancy, drug). What color shirt you're wearing. Barometric pressure. That something you just said somehow tangentially reminded them of something they were angry about last week/month/year/previous life. Because they didn't get their way. Because they did get their way. Anything that makes absolutely no sense to anyone outside of them that is not already listed. So anyway, the bottom line is you can try to limit things you know are triggers by previous experience, but there's always something else and sometimes even they don't know what it is. [/QUOTE]
