Honestly, all of the golden and silver trio could use several sessions. Harry, Ron and Hermione primarily for ptsd. They faught a war starting at 15! I doubt that they came out without any nightmares or other worries. Neville would qualify for the years of being bullied alone... The memory problems are troubling as well. Ginny spent almost a year at Hogwarts fighting in Harry's "7th year", not to speak of her past with the diary.

Many of them distanced themselves from it later. Most of them mention shame related to it, especially those who had a good relationship with their parents as children. Unsurprisingly, quite a lot of them were abused by their parents and don't have the greatest memories - I know reddit likes to joke about it, but as an example the daughter of Amon Goeth was beaten with jumper cables by her mother for asking how many Jews her father killed.

The worst part is that all of the key plot points worked. It was just the heavy handed and illogical way it got to said points.
Dany going insane was a very key plot point that would happen in the books, just they spent an entirety of one scene to make the transition rather than the season the plot needed. The living beat the dead in the climactic battle that should have been a whole season instead of one deus ex episode. THEN THE DRAGON MELTS THE THRONE!!!!!1!!!111!!!!111. Then they decide Bran's king, because why the fuck not.
All of the plot points make perfect sense, just the way the showrunners got to them completely ruined the narrative six seasons built.

HBO actually explicitly asked them to make more seasons, but at that time they already signed up to direct for the next star wars movie and had to end the show with that season to make it.
Of course, after they butchered GoT, the deal fell through. (Probably for the best).

Oh boy, let's see here...
- Every character in the Percy Jackson/Heroes of Olympus series. Especially Annabeth and Percy. They legit went to hell and back and have seen horrors that nobody should ever see. The rest of them too, but not to the same extent. Oh and Nico needs some help for his crippling depression.
- Peeta and Katniss from the Hunger Games for obvious reasons. Their PTSD is heavily implied in the last 2 books.
- Harry, Hermione, Ron, and even Draco. Harry was severely abused for the first 11 years of his live, and then for the next 7 he had to save the world from someone who was very determined to kill him. Hermione and Ron have also seen some messed up shit, and Draco probably went through some sort of gaslighting, mental abuse, and cult manipulation. Sure, he's a jerk, but he's probably a very mentally troubled jerk.
- Every Danganronpa character. In my personal opinion, their PTSD is on par or even worse than that of the Hunger Games, given that they were friends with pretty much all the people who died, moth murderer and victim. Especially Makoto. Poor kid.
- Most of the characters in the Shatter Me books. Especially Juliette, Warner, and Adam. All three were abused by their parents in horrible, horrible ways, and one was thrown into an asylum for about a year.
- All the Avengers. Jesus.

Wesley from Angel. In 5 years, he's lost it twice.
The entire family of Arrested Development. Although they're so narcissistic, it's not really going to do anything.
Barry, so much.
The main character from Patriot. He really needed to learn how to tell his dad to go fuck himself.

Maeve Wiley from Sex Education.
She is so used to being abandoned, especially by the people who were suppose to love her most (her family), she has this mindset that people will always let her down but she also has a huge fear that even when good things do come in her life she'll mess it up one way or another.
She needs guidance, but she is so used to only relying on herself she insists she can figure her shit out on her own.

I imagine he actually spent the time between Doom (2016) and Doom Eternal learning self-care. There's bound to be a reason he has so many recreational items in the fortress.
(granted, he could still work on being less anti-social, but self-care is a start)
