I'm suggesting that there should be trigger warnings on media content, along with the classifications.



With the rise in mental illnesses, triggers can be very confronting.



I think it'd be a great idea to have trigger warnings so that people with past/present trauma do not have to re live such things.



I understand that, M/MA = Mature Audience, but that doesn't really cover the fact that there may or may not be triggers in the content.



Please share!

I think this is a really great idea! It has the potential of preventing people who are suffering from mental health & other issues from experiencing unnecessary flashbacks or reliving certain traumas, just by placing a "trigger warning" giving people the opportunity to decide whether or not they want to see/read/hear certain information!
