So I've created a mountain dwarf, war domain cleric, with the haunted one background.

I don't want the haunted-one background to be actual ghosts. I want it to be a somewhat extreme form of PTSD. I haven't exactly hashed out the inciting incident, but it was Tymora's intervention that saved him. In combat, he's calm, collected, and unwavering. It's outside combat that the voices come.

The problem I see would be that a lot of the things that would make the PTSD accurate and compelling, could be pretty toxic at the table.

Any suggestions to be able to play this character and not come off as an asshole?

Also should be noted that his charisma is a 5.
