I realized that news items of natural and man-made disasters are traumatizing to me as well.
Doing EMDR, what came out to be most traumatizing to me are:
- the tsunami in Japan
- earthquakes (this shouldn't shock me because I survived the Baguio earthquake of 1990, or so I thought)
- vehicular accidents (I figured in one minor incident involving a motorbike -- I was trying to learn to drive a motorbike then when I saw a huge bus approaching)
- footage of gunshots and stabbings
