Yes it does. Sudden trauma like this can cause the part of the brain that deals with the fight or flight response to go haywire. This leads to a breakdown in the normal electical impulses in the brain. This leads to images of the event being rerouted to the current fight or flight part rather than being filed into memory. Otherwise known as flashback.

Treatment for this condition, and other post trauma disorders, is aimed at restoring the brains electrical impulses to normal.

This effect on the brain has been known about for years and is very well researched and documented. I suggest you do some proper research yourself before spouting nonsense.

sorry but this is just garbage.

Have you ever had an anxiety attack? Didn't think so.

So a person who has been raped wouldn't care if I mocked him/her?

Like they don't care if I do it?

If anything, I would like to distance myself as far away from these abominations as possible.

I'm sorry, I have no idea what your post means in relation to what I wrote.

Do you mean to moan repeatedly while staring like a child?
