I apologize for grammar and punctuation in advance 

I’m writing a long-running fantasy comic book and one of the side characters has PTSD due to seeing his mother being burnt alive in front of his eyes I’m writing a storyline where the main character uses fire magic on an opponent the side character seeing this immediately goes into a panic attack and the two end up fighting is this realistic?


And no I don’t believe people with ptsd to be violent but this character just happens to be violent and have ptsd his main response for anything is fight this is a personality trait
