i am someone that has had a very traumatic experience when i was 8, i don’t like going into details but it was one of the topics u talked about. I understand how it feels because i am feeling it.

I believe that shielding yourself inside a bubble is never a good idea and its analogous to hidding under your blanket when you are scared, if someone got into your home, staying under your blanket might comfort you but ultimately it could get you killed. But in the end it’s your life so you are entitled to live it the way you choose as am i.

What grinds my gears about “trigger warnings” is the way it’s beeing used lately where everyone has triggers about stupid things even though a lot of them never had any real serious trauma but they like the attention and playing the victim, hopefully you understand where im coming from.

if something actually happened to you and you are just feeling too weak or not ready to deal with those feelings or fears then its understandable and we have all been there one way or another, its still not the right choice in my thinking but temporarily i 100% would do anything you asked until you were ready to move on. But you can’t be afraid of words forever that’s not something i would ever support.

The issue for me is that for a lot of people getting triggered is not a temporary weakness but a way of life…

I am sure im not getting my point across very well and i apologize for that. From your response i see you are trying to understand and im grateful.
