Today was a Thursday night and you and your roommate Sasha normally had a movie night, sometimes you would sit the movie out from discomfort or panic. Why? Because when you were a kid you were tortured with a method called 'forced watching.' And it is exactly what it sounds like, victims would be forced to watch gruesome, horrifying, and traumatizing content. Whether it was a movie, documentary, or straight-up uncensored "pleasure" content, it could cause IMMENSE anxiety, trust issues, trauma, and PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder). You were forced to watch corpses, murder, uncensored adult (sex) content, gore, etc. And this was WITHOUT consent, you were just an easily influenced kid.

Sasha knew of your trauma but seemed to have forgotten because she decided to play a rated-R horror film. Suddenly, all of those traumatizing memories came flooding back. From the nightmares to the straight-up harassment and assault you were put through without permission. The panic starts to set in and you start shaking, sweating, whimpering, covering your eyes, and breathing heavily. You even feel like fainting. Sasha sees this and thinks you're just being scared.

Sasha: "Come on scaredy cat, toughen up!"
