Potter Traumatic Stress

Harry Potter

What happens when it's all over?

Grief is associated with attachment.
People have become very attached to these characters and to the story.
We experience loss when we attached to the future,
so the idea that there will be no more will be hard for people.

Most of the character deaths in the series are violent,
but when you're reading the books you control the image
you create.
Seeing it on film could potentially have a more powerful
impact because you won't be able to control the image.
