Itachi
Gaara/Sasuke/Nagato
Obito

You mean the last two. Tsunde's ***** ass ain't up for candidacy. It's Gaara and Sasuke for sure.

Gaara has gone a majority of his life being unable to sleep. Going without sleep for just a few weeks can have a disastrous effect on a person, doing so for years, please, we'd all be insane in the first few months, dead after the first year.

Sasuke was tortured by being forced to see his entire family be murdered at the age of seven. That kind of psychological damage is bounds ahead just seeing one family die as a teenager, or losing one person you love.

Edit: Nagato too, forget he was surrounded by war, poverty and death since birth.

Watching your family die is one thing, and being forced to kill them is another. Itachi suffered more.

The psychological trauma is more or less the same, but Sasuke was far younger than Itachi, so it'd effect him more.

Sasuke neg diff. Coming home when you're 7-8 years old to see your whole clan including mom and dad being slaughtered by your brother, on top of that being mindraped by him forced to see it 24 hours in tsukuyomi. Nothing is worse than that.

Kakashi felt the most physical pain.

He was stabbed for 72 hours inside Tsukuyomi

Depends what you mean by "traumatized".
If you mean who passed trought more sh*t in life probably Kakashi and Kabuto, for reasons already stated.
But if you mean which characters said " sh*t in life" affected, molded and literally traumatized them more, I would go with Gaara and Obito (both innocent Kidd who turned into sociopaths)

Sasuke, because he witnessed his family being slaughtered in cold blood by his brother and then was mentally tortured and forced to revive many times the experience, just to discover later that his brother did everything to protect him and actually was a victim of the village's corruption. He also saw the sharingans in Danzo's arm, which implies that Danzo forced Itachi to kill his clan not just to avoid a revolution, since it could be solved in other way, but also because he was interested in the sharingans to gain power. That's why I understand the reasons that led him to act like a crazy punk during the Kage Summit.

Doubt it. Being forced to kill your parents and loved ones is more traumatic. Atleast Sasuke had a strong reason to live - get strong enough to kill Itachi (as Itachi had planned), but a 12-13 year old Itachi had to live with being the reason his family died just to keep the honor of his clan.

Trauma is dependent on the person. A seven year old being tortured via illusions that you can't escape from is gonna mess up his mind more than a 13 year old killing his family. Besides, Itachi knew the clan was evil and while killing was certainly hard, it's not like he'd feel remorse for most of the people he killed. The fact that Sasuke has shown multiple times to have mental breakdowns while Itachi hasn't is a clear indicator of Sasuke being more damaged.

Gaara, i would have picked Sasuke had i not realized this.

Some never had a family (Naruto)
Some were hated by their family and their village (Gaara and Naruto again)
Some had to kill their entire family to save their brother ( Itachi)
Some were left alone and their only goal in life was to be used as a tool for another person (Haku)
Some were orphans who watched their home die infront of them and didn't have the strength to do anything (Nagato, Konan and Yahiko)

Yep, cause being in war fighting for your own life and looking how your younger brother and your lover die is so meh.

OT: I don't know how to measure how much someone is traumatized. Are you doing that according to number of people someone lose, or according to number of moments that were painful to the person, or...
I don't know.

Easily, easily Gaara. He grew up with eeeeveryone despising him for, to him, no reason. Like Naruto. The difference is, Gaara would accidentally brutally slaughter children when he'd try to play with them. The equivalent of Iruka in his life was Yashimaru, I think his name was. He was the only person who cared for Gaara. Gaara's own father, his own father, sent assassins to kill Gaara more than once. And the final time? Who was sent? Yashimaru. His final words to Gaara, "I hate you, Gaara. I always have."
Gaara was the definition of tormented and traumatized. He spiraled out of what little control he had when Yashimaru tried to murder him and became sociopathic, psychotic serial killer who spoke to his dead mother.

Gaara is the most traumatized character by far.

Only because Sasuke had more screen time. And Sasuke never needed to hide his feelings, unlike Itachi, who despite being a pacifist continued on the path of a mercenary.

Gaara, there's not really a contest here to be honest.

Obito's life was like Naruto's had it gone to shit the moment Naruto's got better, so I'll go with him.
