Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Insomnia and nightmares are common reactions to traumatic experiences. It's a natural response to the stress that has been experienced, as the brain tries to process what has happened.

B) and C) are incorrect. Depersonalization and mania are much less common reactions to traumatic experiences, and food-bingeing and bulimia are specific reactions to trauma that are not as commonly seen as insomnia and nightmares.

D) is incorrect because not all of these reactions are common.
