* ''WebAnimation/EmesisBlue'': The mercs suffer this through the Respawn Machine, which leaves them in what feels like eternity whenever they die before coming back. The BLU Scout, Jeremy, has suffered from respawn failures to the point where he suffers from ''brain atrophy'', and that is still a better outcome compared to most of the RED team, who are mentally damaged to the point of being not much more than feral ghouls.

* This happens to Sarah Kerrigan in ''[[https://m.fanfiction.net/s/13120270/1/Sarah-Kerrigan-finally-gets-what-she-deserves Sarah Kerrigan finally gets what she deserves]]''. She finds herself trapped inside a huge crystal where she is barely able to move and her entire body is in a very uncomfortable position and is pressed by the walls of the crystal from all sides, which causes pain to Kerrigan. However, the worst part is that the crystal would [[FateWorseThanDeath keep her alive like that for all eternity]].

[[note]]Unable to link due to violating Content Policy, but it can be found on their Website/ArchiveOfOurOwn pages.[[/note]]): The form of MindControl used by Zim and Courtney during their conquest of the world in the ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama'' chapter means that they can make Gwen and Duncan completely aware of the fact that they’re being controlled, but unable to resist in any way. [[WomanScorned Which is just perfect for Courtney's revenge.]]

* ''Fanfic/LordOfTheCastle'': [[spoiler: [[NightmareWeaver Dr. Destiny's]] punishment at the end of the "Only A Dream" arc is worsened beyond being trapped in a coma, and very fitting for this trope. Alucard and the Librarian bind a Nightmare, a [[EmotionEater being that feeds on positive emotions]] to trap the victim in horrible nightmares, to him, and then carves a spell that allows him to draw on the positive experiences of others, thus trapping him in an everlasting nightmare, with the villain being reduced to begging and apologizing.]]

* ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/35474176 Powdered Snow and Gound Chalk]]'' has Albedo being caught in an avalanche and buried under several feet of snow. As an homonculus, he doesn't need to breathe or eat and has a very long lifespan, so he could easily stay buried for weeks, decades or centuries in the dark, barely able to wiggle his toes and slowly freezing. Fortunately, he's rescued after two days and a half -- and proceeds to have a FreakOut in Kaeya's arms.

* In ''Through Her Eyes'', Jacob Black- now [[RonTheDeathEater an insane rapist]] indirectly responsible for Bella being turned into a vampire because he delivered a serious beating to her that she could never have survived otherwise- is punished for his final attack by Bella using her powers to completely shut down Jacob's senses; he is still alive but has been rendered blind, deaf, and dumb, totally unaware of anything around him, with his wolf status meaning that he could theoretically stay in that state forever depending on his potential lifespan.

* ''Fanfic/TheBridge'': Monster X spent about 72253 days, or 198 years, entombed within the giant asteroid Gorath, with only his own voice and nightmares for company. He didn't go insane, but by the time he was released, he had lost all his memories. His SuperPoweredEvilSide Kaizer Ghidorah has it even worse. Whenever he's not in control, he's trapped inside a cage deep within X's mindscape, but aware of everything.

He completely hijacks their bodies while the victim is aware and ForcedToWatch the whole time.

** Nicole gets stranded in the wilderness while [[ShapeshifterModeLock stuck in her PDA form]], spending several months stuck out there with no way of moving. Making matters worse, her battery runs low enough to force her into standby mode, trapping her consciousness inside a black void. She barely manages to hang onto her sanity long enough to be found.
** Poor, poor Mecha-Sally. While [[UnwillingRoboticisation Robians]] already used the cognitive minds of their original selves in place of ArtificialIntelligence, with Robotnik using special coding to prevent them from regaining control, he went the extra mile with Sally. Not only did he design programming that would theoretically render it completely impossible for her to regain control of her body even if she became fully aware of everything she was doing, he had all of her original limbs removed and replaced with brand new ones, having the original parts smelted down to remove any possibility of her being de-roboticized.

For San, this wasn't so bad when Monarch came along and built an outpost around the glacier, due to his curiosity about humans; but for Ni/Elder Brother and ''especially'' Ichi/Eldest Brother, being surrounded by humans building a "cage" and being unable to physically do anything except mentally froth in rage was absolute hell, especially since being surrounded by a manmade "cage" was absolute BerserkButton for Ichi.
