I have PTSD from intimate partner violence and being stabbed (separate incidents). Doki Doki Literature Club distressed me a lot. Even Baldur’s Gate 3 can be tricky for me because of Astarion’s characterisation if you allow him to do a certain thing in Act 3, then Astarion becomes too triggering for me, if I’m romancing him.
I had a long stretch of suicidal depression, and when I said I was planning to stream Doki Doki Literature Club, all my friends and fans told me absolutely not. I still haven’t played it, and what I’ve heard about it means I probably never will.
Yeah, if only I were that wise! I have tendency to ignore trigger warnings or assume that it won’t be so bad that I can handle it. Honestly Doki Doki messed with me a bit because suicidal ideation is a significant feature of my PTSD.
