Can you get PTSD from fictional things?

Well, 'The Girl on the Train' has a character who has experienced a trauma and her state of mind and behavior can be seen as having elements of PTSD. It's a thriller that keeps you hooked while also exploring the psychological aspects of the character's past trauma.

One example could be Tony Stark from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. After his experiences in the battles and near-death situations, he shows signs of PTSD.

In some fictional stories, veterans in PTSD groups are often shown as withdrawn. They may avoid social situations and seem constantly on edge. For example, in 'The Things They Carried', the soldiers' PTSD is hinted at through their preoccupation with memories and the weight of their experiences, both literal and metaphorical.

In the realm of imagination, getting a divorce from a fictional character would be incredibly challenging. There are no legal processes or institutions to handle such a thing. It's more of a creative concept than something that could be realistically achieved.

Definitely not. Marriage requires two real, living individuals who can consent and have legal standing. Fictional characters exist only in imagination and stories.

Yes, it is. 'The Things They Carried' is a fictional work of literature.

I haven't come across a particular 'Twilight Sparkle suffers from PTSD fanfiction' myself. However, if you join My Little Pony fan communities, such as on Reddit or Discord, you can ask the members there. They are often very knowledgeable about different types of fanfictions and might be able to point you in the right direction.

Well, that depends on a lot of things. Do you have any special powers or skills like the characters in Stranger Things? What kind of experiences have you had that might relate to them?

One way is to seek professional help. Therapists can use techniques like cognitive - behavioral therapy. They can help you face your fears and change negative thought patterns related to the war stories. Another way is through self - care. This includes regular exercise, which can relieve stress and improve mood. Also, finding a hobby like painting or reading can distract you from the disturbing thoughts.

Flashbacks are common. You might suddenly relive the war stories as if they are happening right now. Nightmares are also a symptom. You could have disturbing dreams related to the war experiences. Another symptom is hyper - vigilance. You are always on edge, easily startled by small noises or movements, because your mind is still in a state of being in a war - like situation.
