5 Psychological Effects of Date Rape
4. Vengeance
Anger and rage breeds the desire to seek vengeance from the known perpetrator; some women feel the need to take the law in their own hands or humiliate and rip the person apart in every possible sense, leaving him distressed.
5. Shifting mood swings
Speaking to a victim of date rape is like waking the beast. Women can be brooding, unresponsive, snappy, hurt and distressed and throw a heap of mood swings your way. As family and friends, one cannot be apathetic to the raging battle within.
