Google failed when it came to this question. What is the mental sickness called when someone just loses their mind through a traumatic event?

Google searches for keywords, use them. Also, why is this worthy of a thread? I'm confused.

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, I think.

Or having a mental (or emotional) breakdown.

basically im doing a psych paper on the movies Righteous Kill and Hot Fuzz on the portrayal of someone losing their mind but i need the exact term of the "losing your mind and turning psycho" thing.

Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, similar (I think it's the same as) Shell Shocked
i tihnk they use shell shocked more for when soldiers have experience a bomb, either very near them, or actually injuring them

but yeah i agree with people say post-traumatic stress disorder, seems to fit :p
