Tw Sexual Abuse Mentioned - Tumblr Posts
Reviewing the characters from the Nickelodeon TV series Victorious
Overall a lot of the characters could really benefit from therapy. And quite possibly a psychiatrist.
Both Jade and Cat have unresolved childhood trauma.
Cat has PTSD from being sexually abused, and to used hide in her closet, and under her bed in hopes of not being found. Also she was pushed to the side for said brother. Leading up to her passing out she felt helpless, overwhemled, and ignorged which triggered flashbacks, as well as a panic attack. And it is very likely that she could be on the lower functioning side of the autism spectrum. nd could have a mental disability that makes her brain function like someone who is younger. She could definitely benefit from psychological help, and I also think that it would be beneficial if she was put in some special ed classes such as social skills, or even life skills.
Jade's dad was emotionally neglectful, so it's pretty clear that she was never taught a healthy way to assert herself and to express her emotions. Which is a common side effect of having a emotionally neglectful parent. If you don't know emotional neglect is the most common forms of abuse. Also given the fact that her childhood seems to be a topic she doesn't like to talk about. A lot of the things she says and does to people could have very well been something that someone else did to her when she was younger. She seems to have some control issues. Which is common among survivors of childhood abuse because the feeling of helpless triggers them, and or makes them extremely uncomfortable. her only childhood friend was a hammer, which could have very well let her to be seen as possessive and have abandonment issues. She is worried that she will be replace by a girl who is prettier than she is. She needs help and Beck doesnt seem to be mature enough to help her in a healthy way that actually benefits her. Overall their relationship has a lot of red flag, for example off and on relationships usually aren't healthy .
Adre's grandmother shows signs of severe paranoia that keeps her from living a happy and fulfilling life. So I believe that she could really benefit from psychological help.
Tori and Trina's family definitely needs some family therapy. And their mom and dad needs to learn how to better parent their children. As well as be more understanding and realize that their kids could very well be psychologically or emotionally disturbed.
Trina, a girl who just wants to be a star. Has to step up and be her biggest fan because no one else will. No one wants her and is she is oftenly mocked , underestimated, and made fun. Even by her own sister. She isn't assertive when she needs to be. She needs to learn to let her guard down and accept help from people who really want to help her. ( people outside of her family and fun group who does not have a bias perspective of her based on her reputation.) Over all she could definitely benefit from having solo therapy as well.
