Post-Triggered Stress Disorder

Post-triggered stress disorder (P{T}SD) is a mental health condition that's triggered by a terrifying post -- either experiencing it or witnessing it. Symptoms may include flashbacks, nightmares and severe anxiety, as well as uncontrollable thoughts about the event.

Many people who go through triggered events have difficulty adjusting and coping for a while, but they don't have P{T}SD -- with time and good self-care, they usually get better. But if the symptoms get worse or last for months or even years and interfere with your functioning, you may have P{T}SD.

Getting effective treatment after P{T}SD symptoms develop can be critical to reduce symptoms and improve function.

Trigga Nigga

A sub-saharan african american gangster hit man. Evolved from trigger nigger which is the same as trigga nigga but slightly less gangster/ghetto. Usually less expensive than a typical hit man going in fast and furious and leaving tons of evidence, a mess, and no attempt to make it seem like an accident. This usually causes a probable conviction of both the trigga nigga and you. The price to hire a trigga nigga will run you around $50-$100 but can occasionally reach as low as $20 or as high as $175. To make the title complete, the trigga nigga must wield a trigger activated weapon. It does not have to be a firearm though because overlooked weapons such as a crossbow and various other weapons are fired with triggers. He/she is essentially a low budget hit man.

Billy: I haven't see Thomas for a while. What's going on?
Bob: I heard that Thomas' worst enemy knows a trigga nigga.
Billy: Why is that?
Bob: He couldn't find or afford a regular hit man.
