Thank you for the detailed response and sorry about the traumatic experiences you had with the show. For me, a person I knew who hurt me badly enough that I have panic attacks whenever I see them, really likes the show and associates herself with Kaneki, so I get really distressed whenever I see any mention of the show or this specific character. It makes me sad because I love anime and I would have watched it if it weren't for her. I guess I just need time to get over my triggers. :/
i’m so sorry that happened to you. i had a similar situation with it before all of this stuff and it took me a long time to get back into it but i did eventually. please don’t force yourself to get into it or anything though or force yourself to get over it. it’s okay if you can’t and there’s nothing wrong with it being a trigger. its okay if you can’t get over your triggers and forcing yourself to do so can be dangerous so please be careful and stay safe.
