Hi BonKers,

A trigger is something that can trigger anxiety or depression in others. Like if you are writing about something that upsets you odds are it will upset someone else too so you should use this icon: which is in the list of icons you can use for the 'heading' of the thread/reply. If you're writing about something that is really depressing it is a good idea to use a trigger icon just in case it might evoke depression in people who read it. It's just a little thing we use here to help warn other members of a potentially upsetting subject matter being written or discussed in a given thread or reply within a thread.

Welcome to the board BonKers!
