Have you ever suffered from any mental health issues? If not, please do not talk about what and how things can trigger you into a spiral.
Sure I have. It should be pretty obvious by now. Practically everyone has suffered through some form at some point in their life. It’s not special or protected. Mental illness, trauma, and hardships in general should be accepted as normal and stopped from being seen as something different or as other. Then maybe people would be more willing to talk about it and see that they are not alone or different. The whole triggering and protecting other from feeling triggered goes against the open discussion of these issues in general. Making people keep silent and internalizing the perception of these issues as being “ bad “ or negative is what causes people to continue in these destructive spirals. People should feel free to express themselves and know that it’s normal and acceptable.
