Re: What Themes In Media Trigger You The Most?

(Anonymous) 2021-01-27 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
I have to be careful about anything with gore/violence in it since although its not a trigger its something my brain just latches onto and I go into other-thinking about the images that I can't unsee (for example, despite it being about 10 years since I last saw the movie Saving Private Ryan there are disturbing scenes that still flash in my mind now. Even though I'm use to it as a memory now, it really fucked with me the first few months of watching it).
I can usually watch stuff like it in the middle of the day or as long as it isn't the last thing I watch before going to bed - but nowadays when goreish/violent imagery comes up films and shows are good at making it look as realistically as possible (I can watch the original series of It, but the recent movies are too much just from the trailers alone).

I know its obviously to avoid media that's like a slasher horror - but sometimes it comes up unexpectedly in things I wouldn't have thought about like Pans Labyrinth or in the series Utopia (after that long eye-torture scene I noped out of that one real quick).
If it's obviously fake, animated, is more fantasy/humor than horror in its theme or the plot really distracts me from the gore I find that it's not a problem.
