Basically what I boil it down to is the sensation of acute helplessness, panic, and dread. Seeing it mirrored in someone else reminds you of being in that situation, regardless of the immediate circumstances.
There are lots of ways to be helpless and potentially taken advantage of, and scenes where it's depicted most honestly and true to reality is what sets you off. So that's how I would explain it to them.
Just say, "Hey, look, what happened to me happened to me, but what reminds me of it is when people are able to depict/reflect how I felt at the time it happened, not necessarily the exact circumstances themselves."
I have a history of being exposed to pretty brutal violence, so what sets me off is when people act truly aggressively and signal that they're going to attack someone. It doesn't have to mirror the circumstances that I was first exposed to the violence.
