Oh oh oh MAJOR PET PEEVE.
People who make out characters to be wimps due to trauma.
No, no, no. I had an old RP partner who did and I just quit because it pissed me off so much. Yes, people who suffer PTSD can suffer, get ill, nightmares, etc. This does NOT MEAN they turn into spineless, crying wimps who pass out for no good reason. They have a lot to deal with, but it does not mean they are weak! They can still be strong people!
Mental illness =/= turning into a total wimp or a "boohoo pity me!" type of person.
I did a research paper on PTSD too, so christ. Mental illnesses should not be glorified! Neither should insanity!
