      abstract = {This study investigates the trauma suffered by Megan, one of Paula Hawkins?s most significant characters in the book The Girl on the Train. The discussion is divided into four parts: the awful events that happened to Megan, her trauma, her coping techniques, and how her trauma has affected her marriage. When analysing the problems raised in the thesis, a number of psychological theories on trauma are used. The reader is led by these theories as the author recounts the horrific events covered in the text. This study uses a psychological method since it addresses a psychological problem trauma that one of the major characters had to cope with. The analysis's findings indicate that Megan?s horrific experiences (PTSD) cause her to develop the condition. A few PTSD symptoms include Megan?s emotional outbursts, panic attacks, sleeplessness, and avoidance. Megan works as a nanny and walks beside major roads with traffic to manage her PTSD. She also tries to get aid from a professional. The issues Megan's PTSD is causing in her marriage. Scott fights with his wife a lot because he wants kids from her. Due to this and her condition, Megan betrays her husband by engaging in an illicit romance. Her affair ultimately results in her death.},
