I really think that ED, SI, abuse and maybe bullying should be avaliable to use as a trigger in Serious. I get what people mean when thay say that they should be in their respective boards but what if you're feeling suicidal because you have just SIed or just suffered abuse or bullying. The post is then going to include stuff to do with it and could trigger people. Does that make sense?

I know your saying it's Serious so people should expect all post to be serious but what if you want to help people but avoid threads to do with ED's you wont know which is safe to look at and what to not look at. Also if the post is about suicide for example then it's too Serious to go in another board.
