There is a thread about suicide in 'other mental health discussion' with no trigger warning and no indication that the content relates to suicide:

http://forums.psychcentral.com/other...will-read.html

I don't want to start drama. But I have reported the thread a couple of times to ask for someone to add a trigger warning and nothing has happened.

I get that the sentiment behind this thread is lovely and it's a great idea but personally I am careful to avoid content relating to suicide if I'm in a place where it will be triggering or upsetting for me. I thought it was PC etiquette to flag it up so people can make an informed decision about whether to read it. This thread was not safe for me and I felt ambushed by it. A simple "TW: mention of sui" would have prevented that.

I don't use chat so maybe everyone else knows what it's about and I'm the only one who feels ambushed by it. But could someone please add a trigger warning to it just in case?
