You MUST read "The Four Agreements". It's a hard path to live by, but it does guide the way to freedom of thought, including the avoidance of guilt triggers.
Speaking of "The Four Agreements", I have to reread it fairly soon. It's means breaking the old agreements that you have made in order to conform to society and forging new agreements within yourself. It will show you how words are potent spells that act upon the psyche. But it will also teach you to give up the chaining thoughts and words of others by taking neither complement nor criticism to heart.
As I said, it's a hard road to hoe. But even reading it once can help heal some old wounds.
