Social Comparison Body Trigger
A social comparison body trigger spikes “not enough” feelings from photos or comments—map each trigger to limits, scripts, or exits before restriction follows.
A social comparison body trigger is content or conversation that spikes “not enough” feelings—peer progress photos, family weight comments, gym mirror culture. Map triggers to responses: limit exposure, pre-plan meals, use compassion script, or exit politely.
Comparison fuels restriction and excessive cardio even when training load is already high.
