What if the Harry Potter characters had had muggle treatments for mental health issues? How would Order of the Phoenix change if Harry had received therapy and for his possible PTSD? Would Sirius’s life be altered, or even saved, if he’d gotten help healing from both his abusive home and the after effects of his time in Azkaban? Could the Longbottoms have been helped if muggle treatments been used? And how would the series change if they had access to these mental health supports?
