Welcome to PTSD Forum. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a life threatening, debilitating disorder that can break down a sufferer’s body through anxiety and stress. Further it poses a significant suicide risk resulting from the brains neurological imbalance and chemical depression. Sufferers often live in denial, thus this community is aimed at helping PTSD sufferers help themselves through others experiences, guidance and education. We are here for the sufferer, spouse and families surrounding PTSD. Spouses and family are too often forgotten in this equation, and often they receive all the worst that PTSD has to offer. If you're involved in any way with PTSD, get registered and help yourself now.

Non-active members will eventually be deleted. If you are not a sufferer, carer or someone within the mental health industry, and active, then there is little reason for you to be a member of this forum. Non-active members with zero posts are deleted periodically during the year.

How about Harry Potter? He should have it! Actually I thought he had it for years, all those frightening nightmares and flashbacks, but then of course it turned out (spoiler alert!) that that was due to a bit of Voldemort's soul being stuck in him. Sort of metaphor though isn't it? I thought JK Rowling did a really good job of describing trauma (after Sirius' death too). Also, to me the dementors are a metaphor for depression.

The Incredible Hulk has the worst PTSD I've ever seen. How'd you like to sneak up behind HIM, and tap him on the shoulder.

I've maintained that all the Winnie the Pooh characters have something. Christopher Robin thinks his stuffed animals talk... Eyore is depressed, Rabbit has OCD, Tigger is hyperactive... hehe.

I've been watching Heroes lately so I'll throw that one in. Especially the cheerleader character after all she goes through and lives.

I vote for Alex Cross from the James Patterson books. Seems like in every one of the books, he is either exposed to or victim of horrific serial killers. Or his kids are or his girlfriends.
