Humiliation: the lasting effect of torture

Military Medicine
Meike Vorbrüggen, Hans U Baer

Abstract

Although the physical effects of torture in surviving persons are well known, psychological wounds are lesser known and investigated. A new aspect of considerable impact is the notion of shame, self-humiliation, and the ensuing problems of degradation. Further research on the evolving concept of post-torture illness should be performed.
