Yeah, I generally believe that most writers write out of a kind of general instinct or feeling about how their stories ought to go. But I knew a little about PTSD and dissociation when I read the passages, so it seemed interesting enough to write about.

I have a lot of Terry Pratchett saved on my Scribd account, just waiting to be read. I’ve only read The Hogfather and Guards! Guards! so far.

In the same book Death is troubled by reliving memory which can be PTSD if it is negative memories or unresolved grief if it is invasive good memories which block the ability to function in the present.
