There is also a new ghoulette who plays the keyboard and does backing vocals but there's no official name for her yet (the ones I've seen so far are, Infinity, Sunshine, Stratus and Victory) I'll do more on her once she's been officially named! :)

Edit: she does back up vocals and tambourine and has been referred to as sunshine, I wasn't too sure on any information with her because ghost.fannon barely has anything on her

Do you write yanderes?

Yes, I do

writing a character with PTSD

okay so don’t take this as gospel. I’m just one person. I just see this disorder represented incorrectly a lot, and it physically pains me as someone with PTSD

nightmares

nightmares are not the same as flashbacks. neither dreams nor flashbacks are perfect scene by scene depictions of the traumatic event. but dreams in particular are often more vague than fiction makes out.

sometimes, I can wake up screaming and crying and with a racing heart and have no memory of what happened in my nightmare. most of the time, nightmares are short flashes of something that happened, paired with weird dreamlike representations of what happened. it’s hard to explain, but dreams are usually messier than people write them to be

hypervigilance

just like how people have flashback triggers, there are also hypervigilance triggers. this means that a person with PTSD can go from feeling normal to suddenly being on edge.

imagine not being able to turn off the part of your brain that picks up on everything around you. now amplify that by one hundred. you can’t stop hearing noises. you can’t stop seeing things out of the corner of your eyes. you can’t stop detecting patterns in movement. that’s hypervigilance.

for some people, this is expressed in the form of anger and snapping at everyone. for some people, this is expressed as complete silence or going into “freeze” mode. as with everything, it will depend on the person.

flashbacks

this may just be my autism interacting with my PTSD, but I do not get visual flashbacks that act as perfect images of what happened.

it’s dizziness. it’s an elevated heart rate. it’s feeling ghost sensations up and down your body. the visual element is a very small part of it. yes, I can see the hands on my body. but more than that, I can feel them… the visual part of flashbacks can also be super warped, rather than being like reliving it exactly.

relationships

depending on the type of trauma your character has been through, it can be really hard to trust people when you have PTSD. it can be really hard to get the motivation to engage with the people around you, because your brain perceives everything as a potential source of hurt and pain.

relationships can be good for someone with PTSD in the same ways they can be good for everyone. but the “healing power of love” is a bad trope and you should not be acting like someone’s trauma symptoms disappear the second they’re in love. the PTSD is part of the package, and the relationship should include a partner who helps to accommodate that, rather than trying to be some kind of saviour.

that’s all I can think of right now, but anyone else with PTSD is free to add on if they like
