Crazy fics

For some reason, don't ask me why, I'm in the mood for mental health related fics. Like breakdowns, or disease that make someone seem to be "going crazy."

I don't care who the main character is in it, if it is a single person out an outbreak, if it is resolved in the end or not. It can be dark or lighter; whump is always good by me :) However, I would REALLY like Carson; John is up on the list too.

I don't mind mild ship or slash. Nothing to heavy please. Kiss here or there is FAR different then sex scenes.

This is my first post, I did read the rule/guidelines and I'm trying to follow them. Let me know if I did something wrong! I will edit this, and I apologize in advanced! I hope I tagged right too.

Thank you!

You need The Deranged McKay Masterlist (http://korilian.livejournal.com/43351.html) by the brilliant [livejournal.com profile] korilian!

Sadly, nothing similiar for John or Carson that I know of, but someone else may!

Also, be sure to check [livejournal.com profile] korilian's tags for the other list, 'Rodney's Miserable Childhood', I think - while not exactly what you asked for, some of those do explain why Rodney is like he is, and messed up by upbringing isn't that far from an actual mental illness. *cough* ^.^

P.S. You did everything right with the post and tags - marvelous in fact! Keep it up and you'll be tagging better than me in no time. ;-)

Stealth Dragon has a couple of excellent fics on fanfiction.net that I think fit your prompt. Her profile is here: http://www.fanfiction.net/u/768004/Stealth_Dragon
Try: Heartbeat, Game Night, Mercy, and Idle Wild.
She's also posted one on LJ recently called Fortunate:http://kriadydragon.livejournal.com/77162.html#cutid1

Also try: Admitted by Obsessed1: http://obsessed1o1.livejournal.com/35118.html

White Room by Daring Duo: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3574719/1/The_White_Room

And maybe/sort of Mind Control and Other Hazards of Gardening http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3828524/1/Mind_Control_and_Other_Hazards_of_Gardening, which features lots and lots of crazy although more minor characters.

All of the above are gen.

Not sure if this is what you are looking for but I adore both these stories. Wit's End by Greyias has Rodney in a time loop getting more and more insane. John features very heavily too. http://community.livejournal.com/sga_genficathon/33269.html

Of Colouring Books and Lt Colonels by Stealth Dragon has John recovering from torture in the infirmary and worrying Rodney with his not normal behaviour. Carson is there too.

Both stories are gen

Heh! Good question. Here is the theybrokeJohn! (http://del.icio.us/Kirinin/theybrokeJohn!) tag on my del.icio.us account: stories where John losing it (temporarily or for good) is a main plotpoint. I actually just read Heart of Ice (http://community.livejournal.com/sga_flashfic/760964.html), which is an excellent example of WTF?!John! angst.

As far as the slash goes, I recommend you check the author's rating. If it's 'R'-rated or more, you probably won't like the fic. :) Then, you could always skim scenes you find displeasing. I find myself doing that rather often, pr0n or no pr0n.

Of course, Rodney loses his mind more often than John. Here is my theybrokeRodney! (http://del.icio.us/Kirinin/theybrokeRodney!) tag on del.icio.us.

No one else loses it often enough for them to have a tag of their very own, but there are certainly a few 'Elizabeth goes mad with the POWAH' fics out there. (I wonder who's got some of those? Anyone?)

I know this might seem like throwing a buncha stuff at you. However, everything I tag comes highly recommended. Especially check the fics that are tagged 'verygood', 'excellent', and 'bestofthebest'. :)

Have fun!
