Kender du det: Når tankerne fylder det hele, når man ikke kan tænke på andet? Man prøver at distrahere sig selv, muntre sig lidt op. Men de vender tilbage midt i det hele. Og de er bare for store og tunge til at man kan sige dem højt? Man ved at de ville komme til at fylde det hele hvis de kom ud? Ødelægge den gode stemning man så desperat har brug for. Fuck. Her kommer de igen.

Trigger Warning handler om at føle sig alene med sine tanker, midt i morskaben. Om ikke at sige noget men bare trække sig tilbage, mens de andre fortsætter med at have det sjovt. Det er et scenarie hvor man både får lov til at svælge i traumatiske følelser og hygge med let improvisation af glade minder ud fra en stabel fotos.

Do you know that feeling, when the thoughts take over and you can’t stop thinking? You try to distract yourself, cheer up a bit. But they come back, right in the middle of everything. The kind of thought that’s too enormous and dark to speak out aloud? You just know that they’ll take over the whole conversation if anyone knew. Ruin the good fun you so desperately crave. Crap. Here they come again.

Trigger Warning is about feeling alone with your thoughts, even though you’re in good company. It’s about not speaking your mind, but pulling back and letting the others continue the fun without you. It’s a scenario where you get to wallow in traumatic feelings, but also have fun with improvising happy memories from a stack of photographs.
