People using terminology referencing abuse on this website with no trigger warnings (which I thought was a bit of a safe place) hurts me so much. I feel stupid and weak for not being able to handle what others should be able to handle (and there is one person in particular that I am annoyed with, but I am not comfortable with revealing their name).

I feel less of a want to use this website because of the fear of pain and frustration I feel towards myself (and maybe towards the people that use such terms, but I am not sure how much of the blame should really be put on them).

For me, I am triggered by the discussion of certain sensitive topics to the point where even hearing the words is enough to trigger me. I know it is rather unrealistic for me to expect people to understand what I am triggered by, but it seems like there is very little that gets censored here or even anything that gets so much as a trigger warning.
