PTSD and reading choices?
Just recently I was officially diagnosed with PTSD. Following timeline of my life back, I found out that the most probable trigger happened in 1980s, during political turbulences in Poland. Similar episodes, recurring over decades, apparently reinforced my condition, effectively shaping all my adult life until now.
It makes a good plot for my future/potential autobiography, but presently I am thinking about my reading choices, evolving over all these decades and now practically narrowed to "underdog heroic" SciFi and anarchist political works.
Do you know, perhaps, some researches concerning the influence of PTSD on reading or movie watching choices? I am going to look around, but perhaps someone shares my experience and already asked such question?
