By the time they're actually rescued they can't believe it's real and continue to question things for days after.

* In ''Fanfic/{{Origins}}'', a ''Franchise/MassEffect''[=/=]''Franchise/StarWars''[[spoiler:[=/=]''[=Borderlands=]''[=/=]''[=Halo=]'']] MassiveMultiplayerCrossover, this happens at least [[RuleOfThree three times]].
** The first is canon background [[spoiler:for Halo in which Cortana experiences this courtesy a Flood Gravemind]].

* ''Fanfic/TheInfiniteLoops'': The fused loop between ''VideoGame/FateGrandOrder'' and ''VideoGame/Persona2'' "Eldritch Metropolis of Rumours: Sumaru" features this a fair bit.
** [[spoiler:Kandori]] sends his Servant Assassin to kidnap Ritsuka, and then he [[spoiler:straps her to his machine Deva Yuga (which allows him to access her MentalWorld), and combines it with the power of ''Literature/TheKingInYellow'' and Nyarlathotep himself]]. What follows is a long, ''long'' MindScrew as [[spoiler:we are treated to Ritsuka being mind raped by at least two {{Eldritch Abomination}}s (Nyarlathotep as BB Summer and the King in Yellow) from her own point of view.]]
** Nyarlathotep screws with Tatsuya's head to crazy degrees. Tatsuya is paranoid about Nyarly making him hallucinate, so Nyarly uses Tatsuya's own {{Paranoia|Gambit}} and his knowledge of [[FlowerMotifs flower language]] to trick Tatsuya into thinking that Eikichi is being manipulated by Nyarlathotep while in reality Nyarlathotep is manipulating Tatsuya. Said knowledge of flower language? Nyarly makes Tatsuya confuse the yellow iris on Jun's breast pocket for a chrysanthemum, which is used in funerals in the west, and then he follows up the death association by "turning" the flower into a red spider lily, which symbolizes Death - Eikichi's Arcana. Yes, Nyarly made Tatsuya mistake a yellow iris for a red spider lily.

* ''Fanfic/AlwaysVisible'': The entire third act looks like this - everything that happens around Galbarith seems to be deliberately trying to drive the inspector crazy. The author of Always Visible was inspired by Karen Shakhnazarov's film Zerograd when he wrote this part of the work.

* In ''Fanfic/AFrozenFlower'', ''lamberos'' have the ability to psychologically torture others as part of their PsychicPowers, if they so choose to. Orchid ends up using this power to induce SurvivorGuilt in Till as revenge for the SurvivorGuilt that Oz felt when Till (presumably) died from a head-on collision with a tree during the battle with Natalia, but she does it to the extent that she ends up [[AccidentalMurder accidentally murdering]] her. This leads her to have a MyGodWhatHaveIDone moment that is only emphasized by her realizing that while ''lamberos'' can mind-rape others, most don't have the power nor the ability to kill anyone with it.

* In the fan fiction of Creator/AAPessimal, a particularly creative Assassin/teacher has come up with the notion of [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12650047/59/Strandpiel sensory deprivation]] as a training tool for Assassins. The [[HandicappedBadass woman who came up with the idea]] only initially wanted to create an environment where her students were, like her, deprived of the sense of hearing, and learnt as she did to compensate for the lack of a primary sense. Then she thought about it and extended the idea to, as far as was possible, deprive a person of ''all'' senses. She discovered that with no sensory information coming in, the brain and mind do not shut down: they work overtime to process ''something''. This takes the form of memories coming out of storage and projected outwards, effectively being replayed vividly. People in the Sensory Deprivation Envoronment end up confronting their worst enemy of all - themselves. Subjects report vivid replays of their worst memories, perticularly events involving shame, humiliation and an awareness of times when they did not behave as correctly or as ethically or as sensibly as they should. The excoriating experience has indeed been likened to mind-rape. [[note]]The story follows the pattern of real-life experiments in prolonged and involuntary total sensory deprivation, and is rooted in reality.[[/note]]

* ''Fanfic/UltimateFairy'': The Entrapment spell, casted on Ben by Jellal. As stated by Porlyusica, this spell traps the victim in their own mind and forces them to undergo immense emotional trauma by making them view their worst nightmares and memories, breaking their will, and will eventually kill them via DeathByDespair. The only way apart from early treatment to rescue a victim is to restore their willpower, hence why Ezra, Lucy, Natsu, Gray, and Happy travel into Ben's mind to try and save him. The spell, though, is sentient with a personality of its own, being a FauxAffablyEvil SoftSpokenSadist with a superiority complex against non-wizards (like Ben) and can actually summon opponents from the victim's past to act as antibodies (summoning Kraab, [=SixSix=], Ghostfreak, a Highbreed, and Vilgax in Ben's case, and even trying to bring Aggregor and Dagon). All the while, the current victim is also taunted by previous victims of the spell. This spell was so deadly that there was only one known survivor prior to Ben.

* The ''Fanfic/TriptychContinuum'' has a {{Downplayed}} version in the griffin's racial magic, which allows a griffin to attack their target's mind and will with their magic. If the griffin wins, the target will back down, surrender, or flee, as appropriate to the nature of the confrontation. However, if the target's will proves stronger than the attacker's magic, the target tends to go a bit berzerk and the griffin may be in serious trouble. Parallels to more mundane assault are explicitly drawn, and it's noted that any griffin who uses the magic against a member of another race except in self-defense or with permission can face serious criminal charges (the rules seem to be a bit looser when using the magic on another griffin, presumably because they can fight back the same way).
