>I believe this is the emotionally "triggered" concept.
"Triggered", when it first entered the popular lexicon, used to refer exclusively to people with PTSD experiencing something that triggered (!) a heightened stress response, panic attack, etc.
Nowadays to be triggered is to be vaguely upset at something.
