I think there’s so much masculinity in being vulnerable and allowing yourself to be feminine, and I’m very comfortable with that.
We just took the one [picture], would you believe it? There’s just one and that was it.

Okay, so as someone in a mental health field, can I say how AMAZING it is that Steven Universe is actually explaining the effects of trauma and toxic stress on childhood development? Not the typical stereotypes of PTSD, but the actual science, put forth in a way that kids can understand? Like, imagine what kids, or what adults with kids in their lives who have PTSD, need to see this right now. It could do so much good.
If I get anything wrong, please correct me! I’m not a psychologist and I don’t have any form of PTSD.
Everyone’s saying Steven has PTSD, and they’re not wrong, C-PTSD is a type of PTSD, but since nobody’s mentioned specifically C-PTSD I’d thought I’d talk about it. While it is not recognised as a separate disorder by the DSM yet, it is recognised as a separate disorder by many medical professionals and by WHO, so it’s worth talking about.
C-PTSD is a form of PTSD that occurs when someone is exposed to severe, repetitive trauma over a long period of time, rather than just PTSD which develop due to short-term exposure to a single traumatic event. Since Steven doesn’t just have one trauma, but rather many (so many), I think it’s important to talk about C-PTSD.
In addition to all of the core symptoms of PTSD, people with C-PTSD may also experience:
Difficulty controlling their emotions
Dissociation (thanks @honeybee1895!)
A negative self-image
Alienating themselves from personal relationships
Changes in beliefs (I dunno, maybe because he’s less willing to befriend his enemies? Could be a stretch though)
lmao yall a bitch is BACK
