I'm the exact opposite. I can watch the documentaries, but the dramatizations give me nightmares. I think it just gives such a graphic picture that leaves nothing to the imagination and my brain can't tune that out.I'm not into crime documentaries because I won't be able to sleep at night. I tried out the first two seasons of Monster because they were enough dramatization that I could ease my mind over the fiction. The Dahmer one was the better of the two IMO that I watched but even that was a bit rough since there were details that just did not add up and others I knew to be fake. Yeah, I'm definitely not a fan of victim blaming. It always makes me think back on the old Jodie Foster movie, The Accused... which was based on a true story. Not that I watch a ton of tv anymore, but I think this is why I stick to fluffy things like baking shows.
