Which fictional character with a mental illness you like?

I'm really mad at my drunk mother right now. I'm mad at human kind. I'm so miserable. I don't fit in this world. And my family is driving me crazy. So i thought i might escape into my fantasy world and find reliable characters and use imagination to proceed. And to distract even though i know it's hopeless. I'm thinking how i don't fit in this world and how my family is insane so i think of a Percy Jackson style scenario. Like, you know him, that boy that thinks he has single mom and dislexia but actually his father is the greek God Poseidon and his dislexia is actually reading ancient greek. I'm balkan myself, speak a bit greek and study phylosophy so i love this concept. But tbh i stopped reading the books because i didn't like how female characters were written (they were rushed in the dumb pretty vs tomboy concept which is really shallow and triggering). Also i love Azula from Avatar. I love how she's actually really capable and eventually went insane because of mom issues. Korra's ptsd is also reliable actually even more but i don't like her that much since she has supportive parents. Jinx from Arcane is also interesting in her ptsd psychosis. Actually i hate how moms be written. Actually most female characters. It's like they're rushed to be masculine and creator think this is feminism but it's not. They're just human like everyone else. I mean i need characters who just are and are not so highly engaged with gender roles (the mom, the mean Queen bee, the popular girl, the shy girl, the tomboy, the girl who will fight everyone bare-handed). Just humans. Also like fanfictions. Espessially when the reader is includes. I really liked the Big hero 6 ones as they were really cute. I had a fictional crush on Hiro when i was 14, on Nico from Percy Jackson, Akali from League of legends too. And writing and reading these fanfictions helped. I currently lost the password for my teenage Wattpad account but If i find good fanfics includes reader i might go back. I also like the celebrity stories. I loved writing about Fifth Harmony but they disbanded on the same day my parents divorsed. I like other immortal beings like elves and unicorn like those in The lord of the rings and The Last unicorn. Also Spongebob and Squidward are the two sides of me.

Hi Glonk, I can't write anything about those characters. Because O don't know about them.Studying philosophy is great thing , maybe that's why you feel that you don't fit in this world, you are thinking deep and you know the psychology of the characters.Life is hard that's for sure.The good thing you are doing you are expressing yourself and sharing with us which will help you that I believe.

Hi seeder. Eeyore is my favorite of all Pooh's friends. But I never thought that he was mentally ill. Just "unique".

Aww, thanks, Luna. And Dori is a great character and so cute. This reminds me i should watch The finding Dori, i still haven't but in finding Nemo she's Definetly my fave

Hi Glonk! Are you up for a full-length fantasy novel? I recommend Dragonflight by Anne McCaffrey. It's about a young woman who survives through her own inner strength and determination.
