Place trigger warnings on films for eating disorders and child loss
To kindly request that films/media have more trigger warnings in regards to depictions of individuals suffering with eating disorders/disordered eating and child loss.
Thousands of individuals worldwide are affected by eating disorders and child loss. Moreover, I understand that films have warnings for violence, sexual content and even self harm. However I believe that there is a gap here for supporting individuals that have been in traumatising situations and are not aware that the film's may contain these explicit depictions.
