I'm trying to think if I have what you're saying right. So let me explain what the Delayed Emotional Response is to me.

It's when someone can do something to me, and if not immediately threatening, if it's traumatic enough my brain just gnores it. Then later after getting de-stressed, it comes back to me and I become infuriated. This can be anywhere from 12 to 48 hours later. In the case of the sexual assault in jail, there was nothing I could do about it period. That still infuriates me to no end.
