So emotional reactions are things that you've learned from your environment, and were often adaptive strategies that served a purpose at the time, right? And one of the reasons to relearn them is that they were learned in childhood, and they may not work well as an adult.

I wonder. If you expected being targeted and took it in stride, wouldn't that count as PTSD or something? IOW: doesn't being taken aback and hurt by being unreasonably attacked out of the blue show that you've got a basically non-paranoid approach to the society?

Hmm. IDK I kinda *do* expect to be targeted. If anything part of why this trigger was so unpleasant was that I'd just been thinking / positively commenting on how little that actually seems to happen and what a pleasant surprise that was.
