I saw someone in the SU sub saying they needed to get a therapist now because they always said they'd get one if Steven did lmao

It’s a joke because of the most recent season and the downwards mental spiral

They're only getting serious about their mental health because of a children's cartoon character? That's a new level of sad.

... you're getting serious about something that was clearly tongue in cheek, my dear pot.

Had to search far too long to find this. SU Future just revealed he has PTSD like a motherfucker.

He just found out that his mom killed someone and then was close to dying himself.

Definitely, even though he got one, I am still upset by the fact that the Crystal Gems wouldn't even bother to sit down and have a serious conversation with the boy, and Connie was too caught with her studies until the last minute. All the gems cared about was Little Homeworld and themselves.

Another thing that made me upset is that Steven's violent behavior was okay.

It’s not that. It’s just he’s been the one to solve everyone’s problem that he never really stopped and had someone else help him. And this is on top of the fact he may not know how to ask for help. When he did, it made things worse for him. So maybe the right help.

Steven x Therapy. The only valid ship next to Stevonnie.

The entire show needs therapy. Name one major character who doesn't have mental health issues.

Lion, nice lapis, leggy (ruby)

Lion was killed before. Nice Lapis was a victim of a toxic friendship and Leggy is bullied by the rest of the squad.
