Summary
The wizarding world has the pensieve. A memory can be taken out of one’s head and placed in a basin to be viewed or experienced once again. The non-magical world has therapeutic techniques like EMDR, that’s Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, to re-live, re-experience, or re-process memories safely. But alas, bodies have memories, too.

Summary
Disordered thinking can cause or encourage anxiety and self-hatred. Often times, people experience more than one type. Sirius Black is no exception. He has a tendency to use black and white thinking, sorting everything into two categories of good or bad, right or wrong, love or hate, and so on. Sirius is also prone to personalization, a type of disordered thought process where the person is under the impression that everything another does is in direct response to them. People who personalize situations tend to compare themselves to others in an attempt to see who is smarter, stronger, more attractive, and so on.

Summary
In psychology, a “trigger” is a reaction to something that is directly linked to a person’s trauma. One example of a reaction is a panic attack. A “stressor” is a situation that becomes overwhelming. For people that have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), too much stress can set off symptoms of the disorder, without an obvious trigger.
Sirius and James prepare to leave for Hogwarts. Will the change in place, schedule, and expectations prove to be too much for Sirius? Can Remus help pick up the pieces?
