I just have to say that I really appreciate those who head their posts with trigger warnings. Then I can steer clear when I am not strong enough. I do care....... sometimes I just can't go there.
Thanks for this!

Hi Possum,

Me too sometimes Possum. Thanks for mentioning it 'outloud' again. Sometimes I am more sensitive and other times I am able to manage them.

I agree with you Possum on this. It doesn't take much to just put up a small warning so no one gets blindsided by stuff we write. I would rather put up one if I even wonder if it will trigger someone. I hate when I stumble into something and "BOOOOMMMM" I am suddenly feeling awful and fighting off urges that are not good for us.

I'm also glad that people are feeling free enough to put out stuff that needs a trigger warning. I do not have many places where I can be open about the things that still chew on me and haunt my mind. This is an awesome forum and I sure hope we can all keep it that way and help each other.

Agreed, and I'll make sure to try to put them up.

Hugs to all
