Triggering (Sexual Abuse) - did anyone else find tonights House triggering?
Did anyone else find tonights episode of House on five (uk) triggering?
It featured primarily a girl who had been raped and her talking to Doctor House, who was trying to get her to open up. It also showed her after she had a failed suicide attempt.
I foudn it really triggering, and was wondering if it was just me or did anyone else?
Yes, it was quite difficult. I know various victims of rape and sexual assault, and I found it quite harrowing, especially given that my last suicide attempt was only a few weeks ago. But House still rocks!!!
If you wanna talk, I'm here, ok? Just PM me.
Take care

Ask me mistakes I have made
Ask me whether what I have done is my life
Others have come, in their slow way -
And some have come to help, or to hurt -
Ask me what difference
Their strongest love or hate has made.
when they showed that episode in the US, i found it very triggering as well. even as a repeat a few weeks later, i opted not to watch it again and i absolutely love house
me too. i mean, i havent been raped or sexually assulted, but the suicide bit and when he was tlakign about what his dad did to him, i almost froze cos it made me rememeber stuff...

It was rather triggering but still a good episode. A bit confronting, but you get that alot with house.
YAY for house and his honesty and confronting attitude.
