I quit a mental health forum today because I have ptsd and felt like I was being attacked. I had one person come at me with religion and how they think schizophrenics hear voices because they are paying for something they did in life...which is Not True. I had another person give me a tarot card that said she thought I was not letting things go. She happened to have a trigger word in her screen name..pool..so I quit. I was very clear about having ptsd and it was from my uncles brother trying to drown me...she might have not been directing anything towards me but that the way I took it..felt like everyone was coming for me.

I'm sorry you couldn't find a safe space there. I hope you have a better experience here. I'm so sorry for what you went through. That is horrible what he did

Sorry you were triggered. It's important to understand that in a mental health site you can come across others that can be triggering due to their mental health challenges or personality disorders. So their input can be a bit skewed which can be triggering.

I thank you for writing this as I am not the only one who thought this was the case, so would it be a new cyber abuse trend the perps have now adopted to amuse themselves. So, would it be a type of street theatre! |

Thanks to everyone for replying. Triggers Suck. I wish the world were more balanced and felt more of a safe place to be. Having no empathy here in my real life with no supportive family or friends make the triggers more intense. I had a bit of a breakdown when I wrote this post. Felt like the whole world was against me and not just my family. So low. Thanks to everyone for your kind words.

Some are meme-like and triggery and some are just out to dig holes. Sums up online VH support during the lockdown!!! |

1st of all WELCOME! Kudos for moving on and saying ENOUGH! You're right. Any time we open our mouth and appear weak, it becomes a feeding frenzy of people thinking they are knowledgeable. Hugs...
