OH GAWD....between Enid the Spy and Siddiq the Spy one would think it could not get more ridiculous

But it can LOL

I am so uninformed in regard to what PTSD is. How it presents itself. Is it something that just fades with time? Does it require medication in order to deal with the symptoms?

How awful to be suffering with any type of mental illness in this world.

 

Someone in the group catches PTSD every season, it was just Siddiq's turn.

 

What if it's not PTSD, but he actually did something that haunts him in exchange for his release?

May be they wanted to use his doctors surgical skills? What if he was the one who performed the post mortem beheadings and post mounting?

 

Siddiq was between a rock and a hard place. Surgical skill isn’t needed to behead a corpse and mount the head on a spike but it would be traumatic if he were forced to have done that deed as the last one standing. Any time spent with that crazy bitch alpha would give any one PTSD.

 

I would argue the mounting could be tricky if too much penetration into the skull from the base could prevent the animation of the heads.

 

If Alpha were standing over you with a great big knife, telling you to make sure you didn’t make them brain dead, I wager you’d find a way to do it, even if you had no medical skills.

 

I have PTSD and I feel like they're presenting it accurately.
You don't always know what might trigger you and when. Reality blurs and bends.
It's a difficult thing to describe, but the way they are portraying it is pretty dead on for me.

 

Siddiq certainly has some dark history. Maybe he and Enid were the last 2 survivors in the barn after the struggle. Alpha gave him a choice of him being killed by her big knife or him beheading Enid and he chose to do the latter.

 

That is certainly very dark... but not beyond what Alpha might do
