I understand the idea of shielding people from content that would be upsetting, but my own experience is, that I feel a little anxious as soon as I read Trigger Warning [...].

How is your experience with it? Are you happy with it, or do you thing there are better ways to address dark topics?

All content is upsetting to someone.

Many commenters would self-censor, at best, toward a "common man" kind of shock tolerance. This doesn't help those people who need trigger warnings for way more.

I can't see how to resolve that vast gulf.
