Neurobiology of Trauma - Dr. David Lisak

[@ladyoftheveil8342]

This happened to me as a young teenager. I had suffered sexual abuse from family and after the state took me away I got picked up by some men who took me to the woods and almost raped me . I kept this secret for a week or two . Later I was pressed to go to the police by my dads attorney and because of my trauma my story changed according the law enforcement and they totally called me liar including social services. I am speaking my truth . They would not allow me to me speak about . Thank you for bringing this to light ❤️

This is absolutely excellent. He breaks this down so that it's easy to understand while still being detailed in brain function. This is especially great because he translates this into what it means during sexual assault cases and how it affects statements and legal proceedings.
This must be MANDATORY for all law enforcement! Think of how many sexual predators we can put behind bars!

[@BibiMcMurray]

This is brilliant. As a survivor I have had trouble understanding why I can't remember things about what took place. I understand now. This is priceless information for victims and would be so helpful if it was able to be given to victims of crime once they have reported an assault. Thank you so much.

[@corysmith3447]

No its fully known that David Lisak has been debunked numerous times fudging his research on campus rape statistics just look at Diana Davison video on"sex,lies & Neuro science"

[@elleocwent]

I have PTSD and I am doing a class in Biological Psychology. The main project that I have chosen is on the neurobiology of trauma (PTSD) and you are absolutely right, this is a brilliant video.

Best advice: don't get drunk then have sex with men you wouldn't normally touch with a bargepole.

This is so incredibly important work for understanding not only forensic investigations, but in advocacy work.
This is a crucial part of the human experience when relating an event from one area to another. So much is lost in translation that a person's behaviors can be found to be offensive when in reality they are not.
This is incredibly important in diplomacy and in general human interactions.
In "Preparing for Arbitration" training classes, a seasoned arbitrator explained how to present a case in his hearing. He said something about "sequencing" sights, sounds, smells and relatable information in such a way to clarify an event, and written (or transcribed) in a way the event(s) are preserved for posterity.
In short, he said, "I want to smell the popcorn from the break room."
Most events can be better pieced together (by a number of events or witnesses) sequentially and not a miss-related timeline. 🍿

Most police still don’t give a damn. And do whatever they can to intimidate victims into not pursuing the matter.
Whatever happened, it was the victim’s fault. If you aren’t on the be police force, you’re essentially not a human like they are. You’re just an NPC.

[@ISABELLE1702]

FABULOUS UNDERSTANDING AND ANALYSIS OF US, SURVIVORS! PLEASE COME TO FLORIDA AND TEACH THE STATE ATTORNEY STAFF AND DETECTIVES OFTHEPOLICE ALL THIS! THEY SKIPPED A LOT, AND VICTIMS END UP REVICTIMIZED BY THEIR LACK OF PROFESSIONALISM, RUSH, AND HARD HEARTS. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

[@AprilMartinChartrandMS]

Thank you. I just experienced vicarious trauma on my job and thanks for your video and various articles I am reading, now I can get the support I need to process the aftermath.

[@mashajohns7810]

I believe this is the best explanation of trauma I have seen in a while. Perfectly explained. As a trauma survivor, this is makes sense so much sense. My question would be: why does your brain remembers vividly traumatic memories? Any feedback is appreciated.

[@elizabethdell9996]

In reading Keifer's statement I can re-iterate. I had the same experience with law Enforcement about twisting words and wanting to 'forget the case".The perpetrator had apparently never even had a parking ticket as if this was in indicator of his'good character".In role playing the Defence they showed me that the Defence has absolutely No intent of Believing the Truth about my victimization...I cam home and blamed myself for not being able to clearly explain the utter Devastation of what had happened to me and changed my entire life...they are using"crazy making tactics".

[@valeriebewiser]

fascinating work! I was wowed! I agree Kylie I could so relate to brain freeze, shut downs due to my childhood trauma raised in domestic violence. This was such an comforting cup of knowledge..

[@FineFeatheredHomestead]

Brilliant and thoroughly helpful to law enforcement as well as to trauma endurers. Thank you!

[@ivedevries7450]

Wow. Fantastic, very helpful stuff. Thanks so much for posting!!

[@carolreid5405]

Very helpful information to obtain for both counselling rape victims, and for law enforcement to understand.
There are an abysmal number of rapes reported, let alone convicted.
Perhaps that has been one reason why it has not been a high priority for law enforcement?
Of those who report a rape and anticipate a fair trial, most never get one.
Of those that do go to trial, victims state that going through the trial, having their prior consensual (or not )sexual experiences paraded publicly, and used in a devastatingly traumatic way to anchor credible disbelief, then having a verdict deny their relived experiences on the stand, can actually be worse and create more trauma than the rape itself?
This sends out then a clear and present warning to every rape victim of what they also could expect: Justice Denied.

[@kyliemaree7427]

Great video. This should also be applied to victims of domestic violence.

[@AngieMcQuillinCoaching]

Outstanding accuracy and detail. Thank you

[@carolinesmyth127]

Why isn't this information brought into the courts? If it was, the only rapist i actually took to court would have been convicted.

[@phoenixloski]

This is an excellent perspective.

[@sabinagatti7978]

Very interesting.

[@carolreid5405]

This information if you entertain any type of skepticism, or not, should be confirmed by your own research.
He’s published his studies and they would include a bibliography at the end of the researchers he has referenced.

[@mundoinvisivelxd1936]

there is some liars off Associative Awareness Technique (AAT)

[@carolreid5405]

Has Dr Lisak’s research, or any he has researched, covered and differentiated between the conscious rape victim’s ability to recover fragmented memories and the unconscious date rape drug victims?
Also I understand that certain anti psychotic drugs can also mask memories or wipe them?
Can anyone comment on this, please?

[@sacredgeometry2344]

I wonder if it causes inflammation in the body after awhile. The hpa axis dysfunction.

[@jennifershafer731]

I wonder the same thing about the hpa axis. After something happened to me, they found an adrenal gland tumor, and thyroid nodules. I also have high norephedrine levels.

[@amandalwindsor]

I believe so... Fibromyalgia seems to be inexplicably linked to trauma of a physical or psychological nature... :(

[@jumperontheline]

Bessel Van Der Kolk talks about the hpa connection in his wonderful book "The Body Keeps The Score". Highly recommended!

[@torrentedetinta]

@@jennifershafer731 yes, it does, the trauma change the viability of the autonomous nerivuous sympathic and parasympathetic, and it blockes the capacity of many glands to regulate the body. Glands are the first affected.

[@deroadrunnachanderbhan.8111]

Have ever about compression? Normalizing the audio?

Last segment title: "rapport building" and not "Report building"

[@heatherjoann2528]

I was raped in Jacksonville Ar left for dead along with my premature baby 11-5-16 nobody was helped me Detective lied and treated me like criminal. I told a Sargeant who a Luietent on my case I was remembering and still never called for another interview. I've called everyone on a resource list available in Arkansas and nobody has ever contacted me. I know whatever I said to police holds key pieces to me unlocking a timeline so I know what order what everything happen in. I have copies of medical records police don't know I have and don't know who to trust with my information.

[@theresamischeski71]

Heather JoAnn Gosh do you have a woman's refuge in America? That's where I would start and also I'd go see a Pastor as they are so helpful and prayer really helps I promise xxxx

[@shannonvaughn4739]

But people who lie do the same thing. They change their stories two or more times!

[@zackshields1419]

How do you gather data on false accusations? Victims go back on their reports all the time when they realize how hard it is to talk about it, especially to a skeptical audience like cops and defense lawyers. And we can't measure it based on whether or not the plaintiff was found guilty, either, as you have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that it *did* happen: the plaintiff does not have to prove that it didn't. Thus, an innocent verdict is simply agnosticism, saying, "Maybe it happened, maybe it didn't."
And when we're talking about SA, many rapists are found innocent merely because this type of crime doesn't tend to leave behind much evidence. It really isn't compatible with our current justice system (guess I can only speak about the US, but it sounds like this is true in most countries).
So how would you know? Is there a different lie-detector test than grilling them on the sequence of events like you were describing as the typical technique? You say the false allegations crumble pretty quickly, but how do you distinguish between that and a real victim getting cold feet?

[@DaRyteJuan]

You don’t seem to understand what a plaintiff is.
