That "holy shit! what a ride!" one is custom-made for 18-22 year olds who are screwing up their courage to face adult life and who aren't ready yet to admit that it will require them to accept responsibility for more than just having fun.

well that did cheer me up

Dang, the Underground is blunt as hell. The CTA always says something about "medical emergencies" when somebody jumps in front of the train.

Occasionally they say, "Due to activity on the tracks" or something. :(((((((

Actually better judgement is kicking in and saying that cd be a trigger warning for some people, feel free to delete, mods.

If you do, might as well delete mine, too. Sorry everybody!

In Frankfurt, it's "police activity". Also ILX isn't into that new age trigger shit (I hope).

i saw a kid w a tmnt yarmulke once and i never stopped talking about it

"oh fuck off"

You just triggered me, you heartless bastard.

funny

ok I had to look up wtf a trigger warning is, at first I thought you guys were talking about post-hypnotic "trigger commands" or something like that. So, I don't get how its new-agey a new-agey concept at all... I mean, basically isn't the warning screen that comes up before violent TV shows about "graphic depictions that may disturb some viewers" basically a trigger warning?

If you're gonna shit on something like that you have to call it "PC gone mad!" -- adhering to modern mental health best practices is kinda the opposite of "new agey," tbh...

Self-diagnosed Internet geeks hollering "trigger!!" is not "modern mental health best practices", but that is another thread, I think.

idk, you're assuming a lot there, including self-diagnosis

If you want to go there, I'll go there: pathology is not privilege.

you'd probably be better off waiting until a weekday to start a clusterfuck

You are a Viking at reading my intentions.

do you actually have any idea what you're talking about in the slightest or understand that the idea of triggering has been central to understanding PTSD for decades, or do you just like going off on something because you didn't hear about it until tumblr gave you a reason to make fun of it

Re-experiencing Symptoms:
Trauma survivors commonly re-experience their traumas. This means that the survivor
experiences again the same mental, emotional, and physical experiences that occurred during or
just after the trauma. These include thinking about the trauma, seeing images of the event,
feeling agitated, and having physical sensations like those that occurred during the trauma.
Trauma survivors find themselves feeling as if they are in danger, experiencing panic sensations,
wanting to escape, getting angry, and thinking about attacking or harming someone else. Because
they are anxious and physically agitated, they may have trouble sleeping and concentrating. The
survivor usually can't control these symptoms or stop them from happening. Mentally reexperiencing the trauma can include:
• Upsetting memories such as images or thoughts about the trauma
• Feeling as if the trauma is happening again (flashbacks)
• Bad dreams and nightmares
• Getting upset when reminded about the trauma (by something the person sees, hears, feels,
smells, or tastes)
• Anxiety or fear, feeling in danger again
• Anger or aggressive feelings and feeling the need to defend oneself
• Trouble controlling emotions because reminders lead to sudden anxiety, anger, or upset
• Trouble concentrating or thinking clearly
People also can have physical reactions to trauma reminders such as:
• Trouble falling or staying asleep• Feeling agitated and constantly on the lookout for danger
• Getting very startled by loud noises or something or someone coming up on you from
behind when you don't expect it
• Feeling shaky and sweaty
• Having your heart pound or having trouble breathing

Yer dumb. I'm talking about people hollering "TRIGGER!!!!!" on Internet discussion groups, which is a new and fairly obnoxious phenomenon.

yes i know that

take it to another thread, guys

http://i.imgur.com/WRPwYhc.jpg

how the fuck is that any different, you realize that PTSD survivors are allowed to find each other online and make some protocol for themselves and openly talk about triggers like it's something people should respect and not poke fun at, you know you don't need a doctor's note for that right

i'm not going to take this to any thread because there's no point in it, i'm done

This isn't a PTSD board.

definitely a place to make fun of survivors though

Nope. I make fun of people who wear their problems like hats. You presume so much about my relationship to PTSD that you are starting to piss me off, and all of it is wrong. Leave it, jerk.

Trigger warnings are good. Ptsd trauma is a real thing. I dont understand what youre saying T.W.U... why wouldnt you just take someones word for it if they say something is triggering?

public disagreement on messageboards reminds me of a time I was in a public disagreement on a messageboard, I wish you guys would knock it off

Like who are you to say how real someones problem is or if theyre "wearing it like a hat"? Sorry to go back to this topic i just thought someone else should back up zachylons points bc he us right.

u see I was just an asshole who misused the concept for personal gain but I also respectfully want you to knock it off so qed

Sincerely sorry for arguing on this particular thread. Would be happy to discuss this on another thread if you fuckos would stop deliberately misrepresenting my point.

guys you dont understand trigger is a horse
