Actually no, that doesn't work for me. One line can be all it takes to have me straight into flashbacks. Because once it's in my head, it's in my head. And I mean I had to stop reading all but select romance novels because sometimes it would be BAM rapey scene! I know this isn't everyone situation, but for a lot of people it's not as easy as 'stop reading'.

I also have one of the more common triggers (rape) so maybe it is easier for me to find out if a book, movie, or tv show will trigger me. And my social circle is pretty good at alerting me to thing that will send me into a ball of panic. Like when I started seeing all the dragon gifs for GoT's and went oooh most of my friends were like "No, no, no, you will hate yourself, trust us."

"One line can be all it takes to have me straight into flashbacks."

Watch the SJWs pile on me for this,, but seriously? If you're this sensitive, you definitely should look into, y'know, fixing the problem. CBT, drugs, desensitization therapy, positive self-talk, etc. One line of text having that kind of a deleterious effect on you definitely is no way to function.

They might be trying, recovering from PTSD can be a long process.

I like how you assume they aren't already trying to fix the problem. Doing so can be a long, difficult, complex process that could take years, during which it would be absurd to expect them to retreat from the outside world until it's resolved. Plus, many problems can not just be "fixed", one just learns to endure. Part of enduring is trying to be on the look out for upsetting things, and part of being social is to warn people that they might be upset by your work. And thus we all get along! Or fight and snap and murder each other anyway, whichever.
