The more I hear about that hit, the more glad I am that I returned it. I don't think I realized yesterday which hit you were referring to (didn't see it posted) but I opted out before that section because I was too lazy to write for them. Now that I know which hit it was, I'm pretty surprised considering how tame it "seemed" to be. And if you're talking about what I THINK you're talking about, I would have been severely triggered and likely in the same state. Visualizing things can make the PTSD trigger and then flashbacks. I wish more mturk requesters understood how people's triggers worked. If they've never gone through certain circumstances in their lives, then they'll never be able to understand the level of panic or trauma it could've caused people.

They know. Why do you think they are studying it? Social control.

It's much worse than that, and I have infinite rage and anger for people who treat animals and kids badly. Seriously. I wish I could tell you but I also know better. It was so fucking bad. 0/10 will never recommend.

I just wanted to offer some helpful advice to you (and anyone else who needs it).. I know stuff like that cannot be completely avoided in the turk world (such as "adult content" quals on stuff that needs a wholly separate qual due to more disturbing content) but if you ever get into a hit and something like that is within, it is better for your health to return it. Even if it is a high-paying hit, you will miss out on much more money afterward if your mind is put into a bad place. If you ever come across something you couldn't help but see, step away. Go to your happy place, step outside, watch cute animal videos, utilize any coping skills you've learned on your own or in therapy-just whatever brings you back to being grounded and helps you let it go. Holding onto things like that compounds the torturous nature of them, so chase them away with whatever works best for you, and know that everything will be okay. You've gotta find your zen again so you can regain your productivity and a healthier mindset.

That being said, I'm sorry that you had that experience. I've been there, and it sucks.

Edit: Sorry, Jaded, I only just saw your request to end the conversation, as I'm working backwards through the forum. Forgive me, an I hope that this was okay to say as far as moving on goes. If not, feel free to redact me and i promise to still share my marshmallows, with no hard feelings. <3

Maybe my comment in the post seemed ignorant haha. I understand why they did it, I just feel really bad for the people who did it and were severely triggered. I've had my fair share of triggering studies on here so I can relate. And I understand requesters need certain data that they may not put warnings for. It's just sad how many people were triggered yesterday and that it continues to trigger them
