I think we're all agreeing on the same thing and just using different words.

However, DSF, you brought up a very interesting and thought provoking question. It was: <font color="blue"> but at the end of the day it is someone else's pain you're reading
do you really have a right to be triggered by that?

Do I have a right to be triggered by something someone else wrote? It's not something I can choose or even control. It's a basic instinct. It just happens because of past events or whatever.

However, if you've never been triggered, it would be very hard to understand and I can see why you would think that.

Wonderful conversation, my friend!
