I haven't really followed this in depth. Just commented here and there on my flist. I feel kind of awkward because while I don't have triggers like most people have been describing, I know exactly how painful having flashbacks can be. For me, it's just an unsettling feeling of being helpless and sometimes crying even though I'm not quite sure why (my history with sexual abuse is complex and not exactly the point) - I wouldn't want anyone to have to go through that.
And any argument on ~art~ is totally bull crap. A good story should still be good even if one knows what's going to happen.
Also: "Hey, [info - personal]jetamors, I don't want to listen to all these other people, you personally must hold my hand and explain to me why [offensively inconsiderate] thing is bad no matter how painful it is for you," I probably would've burst into tears.
I'm so sorry. I know that's not quite the point (or maybe it was) of this post - I'm just sorry that this kind of pain exists and that you've felt it in any matter.
