I am not disagreeing with the idea that it is courteous to warn someone of a potentially harmful post, but I worry, Larry, about those of us who may identify with our victimization or traumas. What I mean is that it may be important for someone to talk about a traumatic dream or experience they had without shame or quilt. Isn't labeling it a trigger in some way attaching a stigma to it? Even if it is not, what if it is perceived that way by the poster who sees his trauma on a list of triggers? I raise these questions for discussion not to debate Lar.
