That comment is triggering!!
I never thought I'd see the day. Over on the community [info]o_c_d, someone makes a post about a possible origin for her OCD. Poster [info]artemidite comments about how the OP could have OCPD instead. Another poster backs this theory up. Apparently though, [info]olmedina doesn't like this and asks the second commenter [info]enlisted_smile if they went to grad school. And thus wank occurs. In a separate thread, OM complains about how some of the comments could be triggers for some people.

From there OM not only trolls E_S and alluringkailyn's LJs (comments either deleted or screened now), but also makes a Goodbye cruel internets post to the comm.

So... does anyone have a "Get out of my disorder" icon?

ETA: E_S has provided a screencap of the trolling which can be found here.

I hate hate hate when people get all up ins about "potential triggers". I learned real early on in my journey through anxiety disorder/PTSD that it was MY responsibility to cope with triggers in my environment, and mine alone. Even in proclaimed "safe spaces", you're generally talking openly about disorders and obstacles in your life. The discussion is going to be triggering to SOMEone. You leave until you're able to deal with being triggered or you cope and talk about it rationally. The OMG U TRIGGERD ME is such bullshit.

Yeah. Going around net-shouting, "trigger, trigger!" is going to do nothing but make a suceptible person even more aware of potential areas of anxiety and stress that that hadn't even considered before.

"Scrupes" is scrupulousity, a type of OCD that's overly concerned with religious and moral propriety.

It sounds like a livestock disease.

don't you dare spout this nonsense. Everyone with anxiety and ptsd is entitled to the whole damn world wrapping them in bubble wrap forever, because THAT'S HOW THEY GET BETTER.
