Depends. Sometimes it's damaged, sometimes not.

Depends on how big of a shock it is, where the shock goes to, and how well you and the part are grounded when it happens

Ground yourself using a antistatic wrist strap on grounded device or simply touch the exterior case of a plugged in PSU to discharge, and be sure to work in non-static generating areas like carpet.
