Rodney with PTSD

[qzee.livejournal.com]

okay, I've seen a few fics where John, Ronon, or Teyla have a flashback or other PTSD symptoms, but I currently can not recall having read one where Rodney has to deal with symptoms. Or where someone on the team is helping him deal with PTSD. So I'm now looking for fic where Rodney has PTSD and someone on Atlantis is helping him through it, preferably someone on the team but I'm not fussy about that. Or fic where someone helps him to realize that PTSD is what he's experiencing. Gen or Slash prefered. Rodney/any canon male is okay.

There is no PTSD tag so I selected the tags I thought fit. Mods feel free to add to the tags if you think there's a tag I missed. Thank you.

Freedom's Just Another Word for Nothing Left to Lose by synecdochic Future!fic. After leaving the SGC, Rodney becomes a professor at a small university; epic fic, but mind the warnings (Major Character Death). gen, past-McKay/Sheppard

Second Verse by sgamadison has an AltVerse Rodney with PTSD fall into an AU verse that never had Rodney on the expedition. (McKay/Sheppard)

How Not to Cope by kriadydragon: Gen. Coping mechanism challenge. John and Rodney are held by sadistic captors, who force John to eat bugs and feed Rodney so little he barely survives. They're rescued, but recovery isn't that easy.

Oh, and I have this tagged with PTSD, too:

Permutationality by sardonicsmiley: Rodney gets a crash course in the inner workings of a Wraith Hive. John gets him back.

The fic I immediately think of for Rodney and PTSD is Catalysis (http://www.fantasi.net/catalysis.html). Long, eventual McKay/Sheppard; minor-character death.

Lost and Found (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4804490/1/Lost_and_Found) also has John taking Rodney to Earth to try to help him get past a mission gone wrong. Gen.

These are more tangential:

38 Minutes without You (Would Be an Eternity) (http://gila.faking-sanity.net/stargate/38minutes.html). Rodney knows he's forgetting something, and the others won't let him work. McKay/Beckett, character death.

In Already Seen (http://in-wintertime.livejournal.com/6407.html), the team knows something's wrong, but it takes them a while to understand the details. Gen; dark/disturbing.

In De Profundis (http://agentotter.livejournal.com/233344.html), Sam's the one who has come to check on Rodney. Gen.

Getting Back on the Horse (http://bratfarrar.livejournal.com/24746.html) is a very brief snippet of Rodney trying to deal, with John's help. Gen.

And Wit's End (http://www.lupous.net/sga/wits.htm) has Rodney dealing with early trauma and PTSD, while John tries to help ... despite having no idea what's happening to Rodney for most of the story. Gen.

Rodney kind of has PTSD from being stuck on a Wraith ship and thinking his team abandoned him for a long time in A Far, Far Better Thing (http://alex51324.livejournal.com/129951.html) by alex51324. Gen, ~19,000 words

Converging by purna: John is a homeless lifeguard who saves just-returned-from-Atlantis-with-dark-secrets physics genius Rodney. McKay/Sheppard
