@@alibabapirce9782 suicidal ideation has nothing to do with weakness, it can be a symptom of many things, including desperation to escape impossible situations. Everyone needs help at times, that's one of the purposes of therapy and suicide hotlines, to help people in need. just like going to a orthopedist for broken limbs or an oncologist for cancer. Suicide hotlines are not about people bending over to help you, but instead its about having a safe place to express ones feelings, and gain additional perspective so that one can help themselves and learn how to survive their own situation.. Saying suicide is weakness only further stigmatizes it, meaning people are less willing to get help, please do not ever say that, as you only make it more likely for the suicide to happen.

I love this series and glad this video series is getting a lot of views for your channel because its a good cahnnel. With that said, I would REALLY love to see you do an episode dedicated to ENID at the end of the series where you go through the whole series and focus on her character specifically. I realize that's hard to do on a video by video basis because the main character is wednesday, but ENID is just as important in this show and is just as complex of a character. I would also wager that season two will see her play a more prominent role alongside wednesday because they did such a good job casting these two girls and such a good job writing wednesday and enid. The complexity and emotional make-up of enid is deserving of its own show for sure, so the least we can do is ask for a video at the end of your video series dedicated to her specifically, because as I said, she's one of the best written supporting characters in the history of film. She really truly embodies not only the best qualities of a well-written character, but it also proves that time spent on supporting roles is NOT time wasted, AND her psychology is fascinating in and of itself. Enid is LITERALLY the rainbow to Wednesday's storm cloud... but just because she's glitter and sunshine doesn't mean her life is always easy and doesn't mean she's never upset and never has challenges. But the way she seems to be fueled by optimism and has a strong will without being overbearing is a good enough reason for a video dedicated to her, but if you look at all the other nuances, its a no-brainer. But I assume you were already thinking of dedicating an entire video to her... because I suspect you find her character as fascinating as I do. Thanks for this series, and whether or not you actually do an enid dedicated video, thank you for taking the time to consider it.

A lot people didn’t understand why Wednesday was mad at her father for being a murder but i don’t think that’s why she was so angry. She always knew her father to be open and truthful so when she found they had a secret she was devastated. So then she watched him lie to her face when he confessed, which only further proved her trustful father could even lie to HER when she’s felt she’s always been his kinda confidante.

But as I matured I grew up into a different person than her in taste and worldview, and now it feels we cant connect anymore, so i catch myself having thoughts and secrets i wanted to share with her, just like before, but cant do it anymore cause I know she would not take it well.

Before her passing, my mother and I had a very close relationship, and I find as an adult I inherited much of her behaviours, for instance, I don't recall my mother ever having a boyfriend, not seeing it as necessary or to give fulfilment, maintaining full independence, and so as an adult I very rarely have relationships as I don't feel I need them to feel complete or validated.
@Aceries_ Жыл бұрын
As an older adult in my 30s now, I have a new appreciation for coming-of-age stories. Part of me believes that my parents gave me those kinds of stories to give me direction in a manner that they could not give me out of their own shortcomings as adults. I really like Wednesday's relationship with her parents, especially her mother. I think Wednesday learned how to give her parents respect as human adults who made decisions that aren't completely rational like how she thinks. I appreciate this kind of conversation for young adults to watch not to teach them to idolize their parents, but because at that age we all start to shift from loving our parents to questioning them. It shows its okay to have those kinds of thoughts as a teen (and it's completely normal too!) and that while it can be a little scary to imagine our superhero parents can be faulty, it starts to teach us how to give grace to others starting with the ones who (hopefully) earned it the most. [Not discounting that parents can't be the source of our pain and trauma. That's totally valid, but I appreciate that in this case Wednesday's parents truly cherish her and just wish for her to know that and would never change a thing about her.]

I love them because I'm obligated to, but I want to be nothing like them.

My mom and dad were complete opposites. My mom was a strong woman, very artistic, and a bit sensitive and very musical (she was a professional singer/guitarist, taught dance and voice and guitar, sang opera on her own radio show as a teen, etc.. My dad was (no joke) completely tone deaf. He had a bad temper and was prone to rages. He could be kind of a bully at times, but mostly he was... decent, though he got along so much better with my brother than with me. So I sometimes thought that he didn't like me very much. He was very logical and practical and very smart -- definitely more towards the intellectual side. But he could not show affection or give positive reinforcement, at least to me. He could be very manipulative, and not always very honest. I ended up moving far away from my parents as soon as I could afford to, mostly because of my dad. Later in life, I did try to have a relationship with my dad, when it looked like he had gotten a lot more mellow. But by then, he was very sick and had Alzheimer's and Cancer, so that never really happened, at least in a meaningful way. My younger brother had a very different experience. He got along great with my dad, but could not get along very well with my mom. I have memories of my dad teaching my brother about maintaining the car, changing the oil or the tire, and giving him driving lessons. My dad refused to teach me how to drive, and never had time for me when I asked. Years later, after he had died, my mom told me how proud my dad was of me, how he thought it was really good that I got into computers, always proud of how I had done in school. I wish he could have told me though, way back then. I have a bit of both of them in me. I was shy and quiet and gentle, and a bookworm, and smart like my dad (I'm kind of a nerd), but love music and art, though I didn't go in that direction. I was always afraid of becoming my dad so I really suppressed my anger. But my mom always was encouraging me to stand up for myself, because I could be a push-over. I was a target for bullying throughout Jr. High. Eventually, when i got older, I think I reached a good compromise between the two extremes. I also co-facilitate a class now that helps people with mentally illness with public speaking -- I was shy and deathly afraid of public speaking. But now I try to teach others how to speak up. Thanks mom!

From a very young age i was consciously trying to do things as different (or even opposite) as possible from my father so as to not end up like him coz i didn't like the person he was. Fast forward 25+ years i keep noticing more and more similarities to him and while my stance towards him has soften quite a bit it is still frustrating to realize that some bad traits/behaviours of his have been ''passed'' to me. To be fair to him though, this might not even be his fault. I might just happened to get these traits ''along the way'' coincidentally by myself. PS: I love ur analysis of the show and how u do not just focus on wednesday but give some ''screen time'' the other ones as well. Looking forward to the next one.

I'm curious how a therapist determines if a patient is suicidal, when the patient themselves didn't consider suicide. When I tried getting help before knowing what I had, I've been told to admit to myself that I want to kill myself. I didn't really consider suicide, even after that session. Whenever someone told me that killing myself would be the best thing for the world, I came to the conclusion that simply staying away from people who don't like me would achieve the same goal.

My mother was married and divorced three times by the time I was 12. One time when I was a kid and she was drunk she told me I ruined her life just by existing. While she was still alive I used to tell people if I called and told her I was dying all I’d hear was how my death would affect her life. My father has always been more of an acquaintance than a parent. All of this sounds bad but I’m 62 and have been married 42 years and have two grown children. Growing up I just accepted my family wasn’t ‘normal’ but figured there were people who had it worse. It was what it was…

As soon as I heard that Gomez (supposedly) killed someone, I knew that if he did, he must’ve had a good reason, as Gomez is consistently portrayed as a loving husband and father. Turns out, he didn’t kill, he just bit the bullet for Morticia, which is one of the reasons she adores him so much. And I really want to see more of Morning Song in Season 2, as it sticks its roots into the school, and Bianca tries to stop her mother’s cult from continuing its operations of hypnotizing people into giving her money. There is some irony with Sheriff Galpin calling Gomez a “murderer walking around scot-free” to Tyler, who he knows is a murderer. As unprofessional letting a known murderer run around is, Sheriff Galpin is in clear denial about his son’s evil. He raised him to be good, so he doesn’t want to live in a world where is only son is not only killing people, but enjoying it. Plus, I want to see more of Enid’s dynamic with her parents, especially with how her mother will react to the fact that her daughter finally transformed. This will result in some possible plots that could play out very well. And with her dad being quiet and understanding, while Enid’s mom is judgmental and pushy. And the fact that Eugene has two mothers, that’s some representation we need. And I’m sure that the Gates family’s dynamic is a dark parallel of the Addams family’s dynamic. While the Addams family is healthy dynamic after healthy dynamic, the Gates are toxic and hateful, even to each other.

Growing up, my mom was like the angel showing me affection and kindness while my dad was the scary boogeyman. He supposedly used his temper for my own good, to help me remember important lessons. The thing is, I don't remember a single thing he ever said to me when he was like that. I remember the tone and volume of his voice, I remember trying to endure without crying until I could leave, and I remember very clearly the one time that he was calm and quiet when he caught me acting cruel as a child and he told me I should treat people the way I want to be treated. That was the lesson that stuck with me. It's odd, but I relate more with him than my mom now that I'm an adult. He never wanted to be a parent and he did better than I think I would have in his place. Sometimes I hear myself speaking like he did when I feel the need to be strong and scary myself. Mostly I do my best to not be like him, leave the rage out of it when solving interpersonal problems. From my mom I got my affectionate nature and love of singing, but we don't have much else in common anymore. She says she respects our differences, but then she doesn't, whether it's an intervention where her friends tell me I'm going to hell or it's a casual comment where she approves of a friend trying to force her daughter into having children. I appreciate both of them despite their human faults, and we do chat occasionally, which as close as I want to be.

1: I fought with my parents throughout my childhood and adolescence (verbally, not physically), but at least for me it never got to the point that it made me genuinely dislike, scorn or lose respect for them. 2: I was diagnosed with autism LATE in life. When I told my mother, and after she had read up on what that COULD mean a fair bit, she told me something I did not remember - that from an early age, rather than being like "normal" children were supposed to be according to her own parents and others around them, I would frequently and very intently WATCH her with a lot of concentration. I think she's right, and that I was in fact trying to figure out how humans are supposed to human. 3: I respect my parents a lot for showing their children many sides of themselves, letting us closer than a lot of parents do before putting any kind of mask up and portraying a character. I didn't think about it then, but I am grateful now. 4: After I got my diagnosis (in my 30s) I realized during my "journey of self discovery" (gag) that I had built a LOT of my notions of how people should behave, and therefore, how I should behave, on them, mirroring them rather strongly. Fortunately, they are decent, kind people who treat people as they would wish to be treated to a greater extent than a LOT of people do, so that guidance didn't lead me very far wrong. Also, our house was inundated with wordplay and language play, so I never had the common symptom of autism that is having a lot of trouble with irony, wordplay and ambiguous language. I may not read faces, moods, "the room" or such stuff very well, but I'll get your double entendre jokes and other ambiguities without much trouble. My respect for them has grown, especially given that they raised an autistic kid that was JUST shy of exhibiting symptoms so strongly that it was remarked upon back in the 80s, with no help, no access to further information, and I think they did really well.

I can honestly relate to Pugsly. My big brother stood up for me and protected me from a lot of abuse growing up. And I kinda hero worship him for that.

1:50, this was what really said "good relationship" in my mind, willingness to share family burdens. You have to be a certain level of trusted friend to hear family issues, and their short talk shows so much support it shows how much Wednesday has developed in a single relationship that treats her fairly.

Hello again, I did say I would reply more to these lovely videos and thought I would from a movie/show perspective mention that the moment Reggie the coroner mentioned in the earlier episode retiring and taking a cruise my automatic thought was he is going to die. In movies and shows the term 'red shirt' is used to describe a character that dies relatively fast. Take for example the hiker in episode one that was warned by the lady driver he should not go camping or hiking around Nevermore. When I first watched episode one I said: 'He's going to die. He's a red shirt character.' These characters often establish the scene and display a danger that later the protagonist must overcome. Another cliche of movies and films is if we meet a character like Reggie who is introduced and they speak of taking a vacation, retiring, or moving some place else that is usually an indicator that they will be killed off either on screen or off. In Reggie's case it was off screen but it came as no surprise to me when it was mentioned he died. Of course because of the cliche 'I'm retiring and going on a cruise' from a movie or show perspective that makes his "Suicide" highly suspicious because who would end their life when they are excited to retire and go on a cruise with their wife? Obviously in real life it isn't as cut and dry as that because of the reasons you gave in the video. There can be many factors as to why someone would take their life and it's really good to learn more about this subject from you.

Conversion camps for werewolfs and Bianca's past identity are, at least for me, clear references to conversion therapy for queer people and, as you said, the trans experience. I hadn't realized about the last one until I watched your video, so thanks for that! Such an interesting an analysis, as always ❤🩹

Hi there, Love your Wednesday series. I was wondering if you have heard of the Series "Lucifer"? In it there is a Series long Therapy sessions between Lucifer and Dr Linda. I imagine it is chalked full of bad therapy, but I think they still did it appropriately for a fictional setting. Anyway I think it would be great if you visited that series for reaction videos. It was a very well done show. So much that its original network was unable to kill it LOL

I really loved this episode because we see how much Wednesday actually cares about her family. The way she praises her father is so sweet yet so Wednesday still. The way she opens up to her mother and that her mother still apologized to her. My parents were good at apologizing too and I think it's part of what helps me be patient and understanding with people. I hadn't caught how Wednesday being vulnerable around Eugene meant she let her guard down and that's why she was startled when she was touched on the shoulder. That's another cool way we see Wednesday being more open to feeling something.

That ending took a turn. It's wild how little we know about other people. Never in my life would I think a psychologist like yourself had gone through those dark times. It's so refreshing to see that no matter who we are, we all have had our struggles in life. We can all relate to each other in one way or another, and it's so important to help those people out when we can.

While the discussion of suicidality is appreciated, it's important from a narrative standpoint to also recognize the tropes at play with the coroner's death. One of the top red flags that a character is going to die is either being a rookie or "two days from retirement." This is because the rookie hasn't developed the skills yet to recognize an incoming threat for what it is, while the almost retiree has let his guard down early. Considering the nature of this show, it's only natural to distrust the idea that he was suicidal in the first place

Overall I love my parents and have a great relationsship with them, but something I think I decided to do the opposite of them is how they handle their frustration with one another. Throughout my childhood there were some periods when they where "fighting" often, and they both had the attitude of wanting to have the last word. I always tried to calm them down, saying to both to stop. So now I'm very much non confrontational

My relationship with my parents has always been rocky at best. Yes, I always observed them in my early years and now. Some things I liked but mostly I just didn't like the things they did, how they acted with each other and with other people. I do not copy them, I actually try my best not to be compared to them and try to distance myself from their actions and chronic bad decision making skills.

I definitely used my caregiver (whole family really) as a guide to learn what not to do. My family never felt like a family. Sure, I was generally taken care of but ultimately I never felt tuely loved, accepted, understood, nor like my opinion or dis/likes mattered. There was an idea of what I should be and they acted like that's all I was even if I was different. Depending on the circumstance, the difference was either chastised, ignored, or deliberately misunderstood. For instance, when I came out as not being of the same faith (pagan/spiritual instead of catholic), it was decided (despite my explaining my beliefs) that I didn't believe in anything and no longer needed presents for holidays, even my birthday. Not that I was gifted stuff I actually asked for anyway...only what they wanted me to have, even if it overall was more expensive than what I asked for. (First world problems, I know.) I even nearly died because it was believed I was being a hypochondriac. Luckily, I was taken to the ER in time... And despite the doctor stating that if I was brought in any later that it would have turned fatal and bedridden for months afterward as a result, they still refused to admit they were wrong... There's a whole lot more too, such as outing me to everyone after they accidenally heard my sibling and I discussing our sexualities because they're a huge gossip who just has to tell everyone EVERYTHING...even strangers at a drive through window... They were at least accepting of my sexuality but still a shitty thing to do to a kid without their consent. Not to mention the anger issues SO ~ yeah. I tried to learn from the mistakes of those around me growing up.

My cis uncle was named Dana at birth, he changed his name to Dane because he didn't like "having a girls name" my family had no issue with him doing so. I'm trans, it's been pretty obvious all throughout growing up and those same people take issue with me changing my name. I'm really glad this show makes heavyhanded attempts to relate to queer people even if the characters aren't explicitly queer

hello, my mother was always protective, she spoke for us (my brothers and I), every time we went to the doctor and she is able to define our feelings when we couldn't, I liked being her center of attention, I liked that she ran to help me every time I had a problem, and when I grew up I did everything to get her attention, I bought her things, I told her everything, but she suffered when she didn't get a favorable response, my psychologist told me that she was always waiting for her to rescue me, Of course, it is easier when someone tells you what to do than to find out on your own.

I definitely have a good relationship with my parents but i never idolised them. My dad has a very nihilistic and skewed perception on the world and society because he was an orphan, bever went to school and was homeless a lot of his life, so i could never try to relate to him. However he did teach invaluable life lessons about people, society and life which i find myself using almost every day. As for my mum, she lived a semi normal life but we still grew up very differently and made decisions i don't agree with. My older brother was definitely more influenced by my parents than i was. I learned from both my parents and my brothers mistakes in life, so i definitely move and make decisions more calculated and logical than them

As someone in his 60s, I can see gestures and other things that my father did. Manners of talking or sitting. Creeps me out from time to time, but I am also a bit of an unconscious mimic that picks up idioms from others and just plug them in if they fit. Such as talking the way one of my uncles would if I'm trying to explain something that the other person doesn't want to hear but really needs to hear. Not unpleasant or bad explanations, but more like, I know you like staying busy, but you should have a seat and talk a bit just to recharge.

Thank you for your content and I would like to ask a question that might have been addressed in the past. I love the fact that you analyze Wednesday as if she were a real person, but how do you factor in the fact that she is an OP Mary Sue? In one of your videos you saw one of her fight scenes you said the scene was terrible and a few minutes later you mentioned that the police officer couldn't believe she did all that by her own. According to that, If he had scene the fight scene, he would have even more reason to not believe her. What would you think if you find a person that seems to have OP capacities in life? Would you believe it to be true or what conclusions would you have? Thanks.

The pathologist suicide case is an other dark joke. In movies there are some thing, called redflags. If a character say any of it, will die. The pathologist told all of them. "I will retire on Friday." "I will take my wife to..." "I will change my scalpel to some cocktail." "Go, I will close the morgue alone". These are all redflag sentences. When I heard them, I know, he will die somehow. (The only redflag what I missed, is a picture, from his "newborn grandchild")
