Just read an opinion piece about and

What I learned: trigger warnings can be useful for people to avoid their trauma. However, controlled trauma confrontation seems to be the only effective way to deal with it, whether that's Acceptance & Commitment Therapy or Prolonged Exposure Therapy. Being triggered is unpleasant, but doesn't bring further trauma.

What I'll do: not use tws, but respond compassionately to affected people.
