order of the phoenix is really special to me for that reason. i've been there. when i was harry's age i felt shut out from my friends, was depressed... it sucks. sometimes you have these uncontrollable bouts of rage. it doesn't make you "emo" or "whiny." it makes you human. and for a kid who has a lot more baggage than your average hormonal, angsty teenager... i'm surprised he managed to get over his anger that quickly.

i love harry, he'll always be my favorite character in the series because as a child who lost a parent and had those confusing emotions, i always found it so easy to relate to him. so i find it really tiresome when people just write off his justified rage and frustration as "annoying" because clearly they have no idea what they're talking about.

I'm in the same boat. In fact, OotP came out only a month and a half after my mother's death and I was very much the angry teen trying to cope. I picked fights with my dad relentlessly and acted like I hated him--and in a way, I did at that time.

Harry's actions were sensible to me and I never hated him for his attitude. Those who do, the vast majority of fans it seems, don't understand and what's even worse, they don't care to. Yes, Harry wasn't being the nicest, and his depression are not excuses or justifications for his treatment of his friends, but it's understandable and forgivable.

JK did a really wonderful job depicting trauma in a way most people tend to write off.
