ah..
I get it now. I didn't find Corafree's post graphic, but perhaps some things I'm a little numb too.
What you said helped clarify this for me a great deal.
The idea of most trigger warnings offended me at first. I felt like it was almost shaming (not the intention I know, but my own association)
"Please don't talk about that it just upsets everyone"
But you mentioning the description of an event as trigger rather than simply "I was in an abusive relationship" makes it far more understandable to me. I was under the impression that even a specific alluding to a triggering subject would require a warning.
So YES
Thanks to GG
