Him as an ADULT vs Her as a VICTIM!

     Words have been said and done yet we often deny the fact how life changes our approach to people when they say something intimate meaning to us. Confusing isn't it? That a certain man we trust with, is the man whom we unexpectedly do or say some stupid things we cant ever imagine. 

     Talking to someone is a very good way of expressing one's frustrations to some people. They often find someone whom they can share, relate and trust with their problems and even some specific issues in their lives. Often times people find someone stranger, like psychologist, psychiatrist or psychotherapist whom they can talk to and would help them lift up in some issues in their lives. It's one of the easiest things people can do. Talk, be guided, leave in the office, take with them some guidance they've heard and forget. Easy right? But some people doesn't like the idea of meeting someone professional like psychologists because they think that one may have a psychological problem and that person may possibly stay in a specific rehabilitation center. That's mostly half of the people's idea in seeking guidance into someone professional. 

     One common thing that usually happens is when an adult man gets to be very comfortable talking to a woman younger than him or maybe a woman on his age. Some cases, are most likely a foster father into approach with his foster daughter. It could be an uncle to his niece or worst case scenario a father to his daughter and a brother to his sister. It may be not a good topic to talk but its happening. Keeping comfortable to someone feels really great but sometimes it is taken in advantage. One part of someone says NOT to be so comfortable and the other part says doesn't matter because it's IMPOSSIBLE to happen. But some impossible things are taken for granted that isn't healthy after all. Impossible things could lead to intense fear, repeated and distressing recollections of the event, frightening dreams, avoidance of anything that may trigger a flashback including not talking about the attack itself, denial, depression, isolation and even sleepless nights. These may happen whenever that taken for granted IMPOSSIBLE THING will happen. These post traumatic reactions may appear in some cases like verbally and emotionally abused. 

     Some collections of research I've done about this topic are the following statistics in United Nations, it showed to be like more than 250,000 cases of rape or attempted rape were recorded by the police annually. The reported date covered between  65 countries. In England's recent research estimates between 75-95 percent of rape crimes are never reported to the police. Yes! indeed you've read it. Unreported cases or rape crimes is all over the world. Such worst scenarios are like younger kids being raped up until they get  to be an adult. 

     Lastly, people who suffered from these traumas may similarly shuts down feeling in order to do whatever it takes to survive.We can also do our job and help other's survive. This is what we call reality based survival skill. Numbness is the answer. It is effective and it will help someone live normally for the rest of her life.
