Traumatic Social Experience Blocks Social Reward and Promotes Sustained Social Avoidance
·November 30, 2022
Summary: Social trauma impairs reward function in the brain, making social interaction no longer rewarding and triggering social avoidance.

Past social trauma is encoded by a population of stress/threat-responsive brain cells that become hyperactivated during subsequent interaction with non-threatening social targets.

yep. i tried to warn people, as a survivor of the work capability scandal (and other resultant traumas), that staying indoors, isolated, is NOT GOOD FOR HEALTH, as i met them all coming the other way, when i was managing to get out again. we can mend, but it's slow and hard, and better not to suffer this deep injury in the first place.
