Lenalidomide ameliorates cognitive impairment via putative AChE inhibition: an in silico and in vivo study in a scopolamine-induced cognitive impairment model.

Sexual trauma in women is associated with increased risk and severity of somatic symptoms and posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS; Gross et al. ). However, nearly 40% of women survivors do not seek help from formal sources such as healthcare providers or religious leaders (Amstadter et al. ). Instead, many turn to informal support networks, reshaping these connections in response to unhelpful disclosure experiences (Jaffe et al. ). Despite growing interest in understanding the restructuring of social support networks among women survivors of sexual trauma, little is known about women's experiences with online support‐seeking. Given that many women do not seek help from traditional sources (Ameral et al. ) and because of the prevalence of social media usage (Davila et al. ), understanding the role of social media in the association between sexual trauma and prevalent outcomes such as somatic and PTSS is important. Social media engagement allows survivors to access trauma‐related content, connect with empathetic communities, and potentially foster new social support networks after negative disclosure experiences (Jaffe et al. ). However, the impact of social media on women's mental health remains mixed, with studies reporting both risks (e.g., exacerbation of depression and anxiety) and benefits (e.g., facilitating meaning‐making and posttraumatic growth; Andalibi et al. ; Boer et al. ; Levaot et al. ). While there is a lack of research examining the experiences of woman‐identifying sexual trauma survivors with social media, much can be gained from the limited literature exploring the experiences of survivors of other types of traumatic events when engaging with online content related to their trauma. For instance, exposure to trauma‐related online content, such as the Boston Marathon bombing, has been shown to heighten distress and impair stress diffusion (Holman et al. ). However, the anonymity of social media platforms can foster reciprocal disclosures, which may aid in meaning‐making (Andalibi et al. ). Further, social support received via social media has been linked to posttraumatic growth (Levoat et al. 2020). These dynamics align with Park's Meaning‐Making Model, which posits that trauma disrupts global meaning systems, leading survivors to engage in meaning‐making processes to restore coherence and reduce distress (Park ). Social media may facilitate these processes by providing supportive communities that help reinterpret traumatic experiences.
