Some triggers you cannot avoid, and sometimes you don't know it is such a big trigger until the first or 2nd time you go through it.
I think or what helps me is to understand that it is a trigger, and to have a plan to help you get through it and out the other side.

It is important to realize what your triggers are and how they affect you. Do week-ends trigger you, your emotions, and your craves? Take this week-end to be aware of the triggers around you.
What is causing this?
How did you handle it?
