Trauma I thought I dealt with is back and I’m confused

Hey guys I know I haven’t posted in a bit but something just happened and it’s brought up things about my ex I thought I dealt with and it triggered me so don’t know what to do now. I’m safe promise
I had an abuse ex a few years ago (mentally, emotionally and socially) I finally left him and eventually moved on so I thought. Until this happened on Facebook.
A guy I don’t know commented on a post I was in saying no wonder you’re single all because I called him out for being rude and inappropriate. I told him no it’s because of my last relationship and he said I was lying for attention. I explained that he shouldn’t comment on things like that as a stranger as he doesn’t know the damage it could cause but he continued. I know I should have just let it be but I suddenly got so offended and continued trying to explain. I’m not replying anymore but now it’s making me question things I thought I dealt with. When I explain my relationship situation am I really just wanting attention even if I don’t know it. I’m so confused and just need an outsider perspective.
