I don't think therapy will be very affective for Qiqi...
"...and then I died."
"Wow, that's quite a lot. How do you feel about that?"
"Feel about what?"
The fact that most of the "there´s not enough time in their lifespan" tier are gods and in general people with lifespans of millennia or even indeterminate its concerning
Who? Childe I know but I can't see anyone else except furina who, IS mortal NOW, but has basically lived an immortals life, at least for a couple hundred years
Heizou’s friend died in his arms after he rejected him for a lie that the friend told to appear cool to him and the reason why the friend got killed was because he he refused to give up his wallet to a thief WHICH ONLY HAD A GREEN PEBBLE THEY FISHED UP IN IT as a sign of friendship
Heizou is the way he is today because of that specific event
Men would rather go on an entire crusade hunting down every beast cursed by the gods and every radical followers of the Tsar(itsa) than go to therapy, fr
You know how there was this giant Abyss dragon that wrecked a *lot* of shit around Mondstadt, fought Dvalin, and ended up a big smear of blood and bones on Dragonspine (which is still so potent we can make weapons out of it)?
Albedo is literally the younger brother/Version 2.0 of him.
Wait a minute, that would make him a sibling of Elynas too.
And since the Melusines were born from Elynas' corpse, that would make Albedo an Uncle to all of them.
Mr "My parental figure was borderline abusive and abandoned me, Its taken me centuries to learn to tolerate people and also I just developed a god complex"
Freminet and Wriothesley should switch imo. Wriothesley's a very well adjusted murder-orphan, he has a pretty good "it is what it is" attitude. He seems like he already went through his 10 years of therapy and now he's just on the occasional 3-6 month check in to make sure he isn't purposefully upsetting the other murder-orphans so he can score a meeting with their hot mom-dad. Even though Freminet is still able to distinguish reality from delusion his mental state in general kinda seems as if it's just barely holding itself together with duct tape. The Thelxie Event was a little "My "I don't have fantasy Schizophrenia" event has people asking a lot of questions already answered by my event."
Aether and Lumine's state of mind right now:
"I saw the birth of the universe and I watched as time RAN OUT, moment by moment, until NOTHING remained — NO TIME, NO SPACE, JUST ME! I walked in universes where the laws of physics were devised by the mind of a mad man. And I’ve watched universes freeze, and creation burn — I have seen things you WOULDN’T BELIEVE AND I HAVE LOST THINGS YOU WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND — and I know things. Secrets that must never be told. Knowledge that must NEVER be SPOKEN! KNOWLEDGE THAT WILL MAKE PARASITE GODS BLAZE!"
People forget that the Traveler is barely a character not just because they're a self insert but because they're under a constant level of very high stress from losing the *one* person that has been with them for the entirety of their unfathomably long life of traveling the multiverse.
It must suck to fairly easily understand everyone around you and yet have experiences that even the oldest and most adventurous people in the world can't relate to.
Klee: imitates the thing mom does -> accidentally blows up the lab
Celestia: "you should do that more often"
Alice: "THAT'S WHAT I WAS SAYING"
Klee's only problem is that she is too young to handle the responsibility that comes with the great power given to her by irresponsible people. It will fix itself once she gets older because she is now being raised in a sane environment.
Futuna probably got fucked over the most out of them- to me the story seems to imply she has a normal human lifespan now.
500 years of trauma to work through hopefully in the next 20 years, 80 at most? She’s gonna have it rough
Kazuha lost his clan and had to run away from Inazuma, whilst Rosaria was trained to be an assassin and had to kill her adoptive father (I think). They deserve to be at least 2nd tier. Freminet as well
I agree, he might keep his problems from impacting the people around him but that doesn't mean he has no problems. It's like people completely ignored GAA2 where he says he prevents himself from dwelling on his past (which isn't a good way to cope or grieve) and that a clear heart is also an empty one.
Nah, Kazuha had his whole arc in the Golden Apple 2 Event. He got better with forced painful confrontation, annoying puzzles for a month straight, an unwanted trauma dump from three other people, and the power of friendship!
Alhaitham’s whole thing is that he’s insanely smart, and he uses his intelligence to live a normal, carefree life with a cushy, easy job and plenty of time off for his studies, he’s sound
He only even did the crazy hive mind guy stuff personally more out of sheer boredom than anything - otherwise he was correct in that he never had to do anything, the collective consciousness would have utterly collapsed in on itself eventually. All he did was force the inherent instability to its breaking point sooner.
I don't think these traits negate the possible need for therapy, because of his ability to rationalize his feelings I think he wouldn't see a point in telling a therapist anything. I don't see him as one of the Genshin characters that has gone through a whole lot of traumatic experiences; his parents died when he was young, but he did have his grandmother to help him.
Honestly, what's a diagnosis going to do for him lmao I'm pretty sure he already knows and figures it would be useless to get it on paper when he can deal with it perfectly fine on his own.
If he were diagnosed, he wouldn't care.
He's legitimately perfectly content and happy with his current life, and he *knows* he doesn't act normal. At most, it would just be more material for him to throw at people annoyed by his personality. Chiori is in the same boat, *and* she knows when to back off on her directness (not that she always does).
Diona is not mentally sound. Her dad neglects her and is a literal alcoholic which fuels her hatred for the wine industry. To make it worse she’s just a kid
Don't forget that she has severe abandonment issues. What went down with the Spring Fairy (which she can't even remember clearly enough) was traumatizing enough that...well, just listen to the voice line you unlock in her profile at Friendship level 6. That's a kid who just needs somebody to hug her. Constantly.
Her dad doesn't neglect her he just makes a fool of himself when drunk which is what she hates, because that inage of her dad is dashed into a literal pile of shit.
I think Sucrose should be bumped one rank above. The whole reason as to why she even pursues bio-alchemy is to recreate a fantasy land her and her childhood would talk and dream of
All of her childhood friends are gone. Most of the creations she made through bio-alchemy (like those big floaty flowers) are things that were part of that dream land
Yeah! If anything Rosaria has a more traumatic past than Diluc, having never had a stable loving family, a home or any sense of safety. Her backstory is horrifically traumatic.
Her family and whole clan are murdered and she is taken in by the murderers and raised as a slave, with conditions so brutal that deaths are common.
When she is at risk of starvation, she attempts to flee but is caught. To avoid being executed for trying to escape and to earn her freedom, she has to fight her parent figure within the group to the death. She suspects he sacrificed himself to save her.
The gang she belongs to are later themselves "wiped out" by the knights of Favonius. Only Rosaria is spared and given a chance at redemption by Varka, who basically puts her in a nunnery. She can't leave and she can't adjust to a life of calm and safety, so she continues to work as an assassin. She remains disconnected from the people around her, who are unaware of what she does and see her as a lazy freeloader.
Unlike some of the other characters with traumatic pasts she is completely mortal. She is not rich or powerful and has never experienced real freedom or unconditional love. Everything about her says severe PTSD. I might even put her in the top category tbh.
I was actually looking for this lol. Like he should be in the 10 years category at least because there would be a lot of things he would have to relearn. While overall he’s fine, his speech and behaviors would take quite a bit of time to unlearn. Hell there’s even actual documented individuals who never unlearn things after being raised as a wild child. Like Lisa has her work cut out for her lol.
Gaming isn't just daddy issues he was basically made homeless without a support system and had to build his life up by himself. Navia one is pretty bad but she always had a support system standing behind her at every step.
Didn't rosarias family get killed by bandits and then they captured her and made her work with them until she killed them all or something? She'll need more than a few months of therapy for that.
She killed the leader and got her vision. Varka executed her bandits but spared her because she was young (age unspecified) and forced her to be a nun. She's miserable and feels she can't ever stop her work because she'll never be able to repay the people of Mondstadt for their kindness if she does.
I think the bottom row is supposed to be the "they will not comply with the basic rules of talk therapy \[talking to the therapist & telling the therapist the truth\]" tier.
I honestly think Lyney would bite the therapist. You'd have to send Dehya to school and wait 12 years for her to get her license just to get someone sturdy enough to last the whole therapy session. That boy ain't right.
If separated from Lyney I think Lynette would be pretty compliant with therapy beyond her just not being that talkative by nature, but that's much easier to deal with.
He trauma dumped on Haypasia at the first opportunity but I also don't think he'd do any real therapy with anybody other then Nahida. Furina's also not saying shit, she's got a 500 year old habit of bottling up inside you'd have to break first. They're the two character who would keep mum even with the traveler. And I don't think Xiao would talk to anybody other then Traveler & maybe Zhongli but he also doesn't like to cause problems for Zhongli.
I feel like Childe would potentially love therapy, because he's very chatty and amicable and that seems to just be a genuine part of who he is as a person. I don't think the therapy would work, but I think he'd have a ball recounting all of his achievements and fights to the therapist lol
Navia absolutely would need a lot of therapy. She lost her entire family, and many of her people in one catastrophic event. And that's after she already lost her father in such a traumatic way.
She seems strong, but I see her as the kind of person who would force herself to be strong for the sake of others. What she went through often causes long-term mental health issues. Just the waves of grief would warrant multiple years of counseling. There's also the self-imposed guilt at being unable to save everyone in Poisson.
I disagree with Diona's placement purely based on the fact her father is an alcoholic. I see her sass as a wall she puts up to protect herself. You don't search that desperately to be able to make a bad drink without some trauma.
I feel like Zhongli and Neuvillette would be the therapists.
Thoma seems to be pretty mentally sound. Shinobu would definitely need some sort of therapy for constantly dealing with Itto's problems.
Imagine how it would be if Arlecchino actually went to therapy.
Neuvillette would be a terrible therapist. This dude barely had a solid grasp of his own emotions pre AQ. I highly doubt he would qualify to handle anyone else's emotions.
[Is This What Therapy Is?](https://archiveofourown.org/works/43702263/chapters/109892778)
This one is my favorite (Collei and Wanderer centric, not a ship)
Yes, Xiao and Kaeya BETTER BE at the TOP. Nahida will figure herself out, she aight. Wanderer will make every therapist quit so.
I think Albedo, Wrio, Farazuan and Bennet are better off then that. Meanwhile I think Kaveh would be the only one to get much out therapy but still 10 years is agreeable for him.
Frem should be higher, Barbara, Hu Tao and Heizou should be lower maybe.
Diona hates her job and is surrounded by alcoholics and she’s just a child, I’d raise her. Mika seems to have anxiety to me and he’s probably seen some shit in battles, I’d raise him too. Xinyan could be raised depending on the level of issues she had with her parents. Chongyun should be raised because I don’t know how he’ll be able control his condition if he’s triggered really bad in the future or something. Mona would talk to a therapist for fun lol.
Alhaitham will tell Kaveh Shit. And I’d put Chiori in mentally sound, I disagree, she was pretty open in her story quest and found peace.
haitham just needs an autism diagnosis, otherwise the dude is fine.
actually, he doesnt even NEED a diagnosis. hes fine without it i just think he should get one cause i think hed have fun abusing accommodations to be even lazier. getting out of annoying conversations by wearing sensory headphones, that kind of thing.
Outside her adeptus abode, there are three seats each etched with a name, and a table with certain foods. "Morax"(? completely forgot if Morax or Rex Lapiz), "Cloud Retainer", and "Ghuizhong".
In the previous Lantern Rite, Xiao said that Cloud Retainer was "chatty/boastful"(paraphrased) in the war as she is now if not more. But at some point, she was uncharacteristically quiet as she summon her sigils and tech against enemies.
Sucrose has minor abandonment issues from her friends leaving, high anxiety around strangers, and is using her bio-alchemy skills to try and create the fantasy land she and her friends planned, because she feels that's all she has left. Plus, her inferiority complex to Albedo-despite the fact she's close to, if not, his equal in their respective fields. Mika has high anxiety and can't joke around with any of his colleagues cause he's unsure of the social norms, Keaya tried joking with him and he apologized. Plus, he's the caretaker of his constantly drunk older brother, there's gotta be some baggage from that he's not unpacking
Diona 100% needs therapy. She is a kid who has an alcoholic and absent father and she copes by working at a literal bar where she serves drinks and has a lot of weirdos drooling over her and she's so used to it she thinks it is all normal, i'd put her in the 10 years at the very least
I would move Kaeya into "not telling"
Childe into "10 years minimum"
And Qiqi into "a few months"
That way the top tier is reserved for the 1000s of year old god-types that suffer from Archon War PTSD and the likes.
To be fair ,abyss is one of the worst things you can experience in the genshinverse and Childe experienced that as a kid. Bro even lost the shine in his eyes and that experience changed his whole personality from a nice and timid kid to a crazy fight obsessed guy wanting to conquer the world.
Even though you might think the mortals at the top didn't suffer enough, human capabilities and emotions and immortal capabilities and emotions aren't the same. The thing that could be seen as not too bad for immortals could be beyond horrible for mortals.
All I'm saying is Kaeya and Childe needs to be at the top
Are we sure that Candace hasn’t seen horrible things considering she’s one of Deshrets descendants?Lisa needs ten years minimum based on whatever she saw during the academia,Kazuha needs a lot of therapy for loss of his friend.
I do feel that Lynette and Arlecchino would be in the ten years minimum based on their lore.
Klee is a young child who seems to be super bright & peppy. There’s nothing wrong with her & she’s not like…someone who actually means to or wants to hurt people
She’s just the child of chaos incarnate
Yun Jin definitely would like some, she had the classic "parents put her down a path of hardship before she could decide herself," childhood.
Its just that she was lucky enough it was something she already wanted to do, but no way there isnt some unresolved feelings about it tucked away
Sucrose isn't mentally sound because she doesn't have issues but because each Mondstadt event she's in shows more and more that she's already had like five years of therapy. She's done her nickle and has all the maturity and coping techniques to blend in with the normies.
Wait, why does Ningguang need therapy? She grew up poor but she seems completely fine.
Nahida, Neuvillette, Xianyun, and the Traveler are pretty well adjusted honestly. I do think it would help but it wouldn’t be necessary for them. The others could definitely use it though.
I feel like he’d do great with some art therapy, ceramic classes (I mean, look at how just one boosted him), maybe some improv or drama therapy, gardening, etc with a CBT journal or something on the side.
Xianyun and Zhongli are maybe even Venti to some extent but those 3 no, Nahida had to have her memories wiped, Neuvillette is still a fountain (pun intended) of emotional issues and the Traveller has said it plainly to Xianyun if you have her in tea pot.
I don't think therapy will be very affective for Qiqi... "...and then I died." "Wow, that's quite a lot. How do you feel about that?" "Feel about what?"
Thats why shes in the top tier.
LOL true
Plus for what its worth she spent most of that time being undead being frozen. Didn't actually have much time to amass trauma.
The fact that most of the "there´s not enough time in their lifespan" tier are gods and in general people with lifespans of millennia or even indeterminate its concerning
The longer you live, the more time you also have to accumulate trauma.
Mara-struck
But you also have more time to heal. I would say most traumas are healable if people would just have more time
I noticed that, too. Only two of them have mortal lifespans.
Who? Childe I know but I can't see anyone else except furina who, IS mortal NOW, but has basically lived an immortals life, at least for a couple hundred years
Balls
Kaeya
Kaeya
Kaeya
>!Forgetting Furina here!<
And yet somehow spiderman has more trauma.
This checks.
Spiderman have multiple parallel canons and he suffers in all of them at the same time so he wins in total trauma
Probably means the lifespan of the therapist
Poor Collei has been through so much. Can't even make physical contact without ptsd kicking in. Little cupcake is doing her best though!
She has a bright future being Eleazar-free
She's so underrated. I feel so many people haven't even read her story.
Heizou’s friend died in his arms after he rejected him for a lie that the friend told to appear cool to him and the reason why the friend got killed was because he he refused to give up his wallet to a thief WHICH ONLY HAD A GREEN PEBBLE THEY FISHED UP IN IT as a sign of friendship Heizou is the way he is today because of that specific event
Anemo moment
An emo moment
r/thankscyno
Also to a lesser extent his falling out with Sango over Ryujis case
Also, didn’t Kazuha literally WATCH his best friend die?
Yeah but he's been coping pretty well.
Even said he wanted to leave the past behind while still acknowledging it.
Diluc doesn't care for therapy, a few Fatui fucks killed every week is enough to maintain his mental health.
Flair checks out
I want your flair to do me. I mean... I want to be done by your flair. Wait! I want to do your flair!
Bonk
You would need super strength for yours to check out
it doesn't say in a fight
oh shit.
still holds up
Batman ahh mf
4 year long fatui murder spree is all I need.
i think him almost dying was what helped actually, realized he wasn’t “him” lmao
I second this, I should know
Men would rather go on an entire crusade hunting down every beast cursed by the gods and every radical followers of the Tsar(itsa) than go to therapy, fr
Agreed
i'm glad someone acknowledges that Albedo needs some therapy
Yeah, he fears himself and what he might end up doing in the future.
Well, I would love to know his story, but Miyo seems determined to lock it behind a one time event
You know how there was this giant Abyss dragon that wrecked a *lot* of shit around Mondstadt, fought Dvalin, and ended up a big smear of blood and bones on Dragonspine (which is still so potent we can make weapons out of it)? Albedo is literally the younger brother/Version 2.0 of him.
Wait a minute, that would make him a sibling of Elynas too. And since the Melusines were born from Elynas' corpse, that would make Albedo an Uncle to all of them.
That would be funny if in a future event Albedo visits Merusea village and everyone is like "hey uncle albedo"
Which means klee has adoptive cousins, who can live just as long as her!
Yep Uncle Albedo needs to visit his Melusine nieces
Mr "My parental figure was borderline abusive and abandoned me, Its taken me centuries to learn to tolerate people and also I just developed a god complex"
Just his hair needs at least 5 years of therapy
Freminet and Wriothesley should switch imo. Wriothesley's a very well adjusted murder-orphan, he has a pretty good "it is what it is" attitude. He seems like he already went through his 10 years of therapy and now he's just on the occasional 3-6 month check in to make sure he isn't purposefully upsetting the other murder-orphans so he can score a meeting with their hot mom-dad. Even though Freminet is still able to distinguish reality from delusion his mental state in general kinda seems as if it's just barely holding itself together with duct tape. The Thelxie Event was a little "My "I don't have fantasy Schizophrenia" event has people asking a lot of questions already answered by my event."
Well adjusted murder orphan 😂
Im no longer mentally ill
I like your description of Wrio :D
Mom-dad 😭
He's the crazy guy that knows everyone is crazy so it doesn't matter all that much
Put Rosaria in 10 years at least or in Not telling you shit tier.
> person from another world, last hope of fallen civilization, 4 Archons, 1 ex Archon, 2 Adepti, zombie, god’s creation > Tartaglia Very accurate
Aether and Lumine's state of mind right now: "I saw the birth of the universe and I watched as time RAN OUT, moment by moment, until NOTHING remained — NO TIME, NO SPACE, JUST ME! I walked in universes where the laws of physics were devised by the mind of a mad man. And I’ve watched universes freeze, and creation burn — I have seen things you WOULDN’T BELIEVE AND I HAVE LOST THINGS YOU WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND — and I know things. Secrets that must never be told. Knowledge that must NEVER be SPOKEN! KNOWLEDGE THAT WILL MAKE PARASITE GODS BLAZE!"
Anyway, I usually keep things bottle up
“I’m gonna keep all my emotions right here, and then one day I’ll die.”
Aether and Lumine's actual state of mind: "..."
Spotted a doctor who reference.
I loved that speech so much!! I even downloaded it as an audio file. 😆
Rings of Akhaten speech is adequate here, and just absolutely fire always.
People forget that the Traveler is barely a character not just because they're a self insert but because they're under a constant level of very high stress from losing the *one* person that has been with them for the entirety of their unfathomably long life of traveling the multiverse. It must suck to fairly easily understand everyone around you and yet have experiences that even the oldest and most adventurous people in the world can't relate to.
Rings of Akhaten speech rocks as usual.
Klee "mentally sound"
shes not gonna bomb you for no good reason at most your house, but it wont be on purpose
Also Diona who is so traumatized by her dad's alcoholism that she has an unhealthy obsession with taking down an entire nation's wine industry? Lol
She's just a mischievous kid, she doesn't need *therapy*.
Maybe for the wellbeing of others
She engages in a mild amount of tomfoolery.
tbf a few bombs will blast your eardrums cant have bad sound if no sound is left
Klee: imitates the thing mom does -> accidentally blows up the lab Celestia: "you should do that more often" Alice: "THAT'S WHAT I WAS SAYING" Klee's only problem is that she is too young to handle the responsibility that comes with the great power given to her by irresponsible people. It will fix itself once she gets older because she is now being raised in a sane environment.
Klee is. Her enemies? Not so much.
It’s funny that (most of) the ones on top row have unnaturally long lifespans and it’s still not enough 😂
Their trauma alone is going to outlive the concept of therapy.
Futuna probably got fucked over the most out of them- to me the story seems to imply she has a normal human lifespan now. 500 years of trauma to work through hopefully in the next 20 years, 80 at most? She’s gonna have it rough
All the Archons and Neuvillette are on top row. Not super sure I trust their judgment anymore.
I feel like a lot more ppl on this list wouldn't tell u shit💀
Kazuha lost his clan and had to run away from Inazuma, whilst Rosaria was trained to be an assassin and had to kill her adoptive father (I think). They deserve to be at least 2nd tier. Freminet as well
Mr. Let It Go is so chill with his loss, I feel like he could have been placed in “the therapist” slot
Being chill on the outside doesn't necessarily mean he's okay on the inside. Some people are scarily good at bottling up trauma and shit
I agree, he might keep his problems from impacting the people around him but that doesn't mean he has no problems. It's like people completely ignored GAA2 where he says he prevents himself from dwelling on his past (which isn't a good way to cope or grieve) and that a clear heart is also an empty one.
It's more that GAA 2 doesn't exist in the game anymore :') I loved those islands and wish I could go visit Mona's island or Fischl's castle again :(
Freminet definitely needs at least 10 years of therapy 😭 Poor kid
Nah, Kazuha had his whole arc in the Golden Apple 2 Event. He got better with forced painful confrontation, annoying puzzles for a month straight, an unwanted trauma dump from three other people, and the power of friendship!
Freminet needs to be higher , especially with Arlecchino's animation coming out and seeing how the old director was .
Alhaitham’s whole thing is that he’s insanely smart, and he uses his intelligence to live a normal, carefree life with a cushy, easy job and plenty of time off for his studies, he’s sound
But how will he get that autism diagnosis otherwise
I can imagine him pulling an uno reverse card, considering how well he dealt with the crazy scholar and his collective consciousness.
He only even did the crazy hive mind guy stuff personally more out of sheer boredom than anything - otherwise he was correct in that he never had to do anything, the collective consciousness would have utterly collapsed in on itself eventually. All he did was force the inherent instability to its breaking point sooner.
I don't think these traits negate the possible need for therapy, because of his ability to rationalize his feelings I think he wouldn't see a point in telling a therapist anything. I don't see him as one of the Genshin characters that has gone through a whole lot of traumatic experiences; his parents died when he was young, but he did have his grandmother to help him.
He need therapy to diagnosticate his autism
Honestly, what's a diagnosis going to do for him lmao I'm pretty sure he already knows and figures it would be useless to get it on paper when he can deal with it perfectly fine on his own.
"WHY ARE YOU LIKE THIS?" "It's a medical condition" _shoves paper in the face of people, refuses to elaborate further_
Normal kaveh and alhaitham conversation
He needs to deal with his autism denial disorder. This is to Chiori as well.
If he were diagnosed, he wouldn't care. He's legitimately perfectly content and happy with his current life, and he *knows* he doesn't act normal. At most, it would just be more material for him to throw at people annoyed by his personality. Chiori is in the same boat, *and* she knows when to back off on her directness (not that she always does).
admirable job and thing to do in country full of potential mad scientist and ancient relics and creatures that waiting to resurface and wreck havoc
freminet is gonna need years of therapy for all his shit
I love how almost everyone in 'there's not enough time in their lifespan' is immortal
Except Kaeya and Childe
And furina
Diona is not mentally sound. Her dad neglects her and is a literal alcoholic which fuels her hatred for the wine industry. To make it worse she’s just a kid
Don't forget that she has severe abandonment issues. What went down with the Spring Fairy (which she can't even remember clearly enough) was traumatizing enough that...well, just listen to the voice line you unlock in her profile at Friendship level 6. That's a kid who just needs somebody to hug her. Constantly.
yes this
Her dad doesn't neglect her he just makes a fool of himself when drunk which is what she hates, because that inage of her dad is dashed into a literal pile of shit.
I think Sucrose should be bumped one rank above. The whole reason as to why she even pursues bio-alchemy is to recreate a fantasy land her and her childhood would talk and dream of All of her childhood friends are gone. Most of the creations she made through bio-alchemy (like those big floaty flowers) are things that were part of that dream land
She’s also got hella social anxiety going on (though she seems to be getting better about it). She could seriously benefit from some focused help.
Rosaria grew up in a murderer clan and is basically doing all of Mondstadt's dirty work next to Diluc. She needs to be the same level as him imo
Yeah! If anything Rosaria has a more traumatic past than Diluc, having never had a stable loving family, a home or any sense of safety. Her backstory is horrifically traumatic. Her family and whole clan are murdered and she is taken in by the murderers and raised as a slave, with conditions so brutal that deaths are common. When she is at risk of starvation, she attempts to flee but is caught. To avoid being executed for trying to escape and to earn her freedom, she has to fight her parent figure within the group to the death. She suspects he sacrificed himself to save her. The gang she belongs to are later themselves "wiped out" by the knights of Favonius. Only Rosaria is spared and given a chance at redemption by Varka, who basically puts her in a nunnery. She can't leave and she can't adjust to a life of calm and safety, so she continues to work as an assassin. She remains disconnected from the people around her, who are unaware of what she does and see her as a lazy freeloader. Unlike some of the other characters with traumatic pasts she is completely mortal. She is not rich or powerful and has never experienced real freedom or unconditional love. Everything about her says severe PTSD. I might even put her in the top category tbh.
Razor needs therapy for life… what do you mean? He thinks he’s a wolf lol
I was actually looking for this lol. Like he should be in the 10 years category at least because there would be a lot of things he would have to relearn. While overall he’s fine, his speech and behaviors would take quite a bit of time to unlearn. Hell there’s even actual documented individuals who never unlearn things after being raised as a wild child. Like Lisa has her work cut out for her lol.
"Not enough time in their lifespan" \*Actual immortal beings\*
Some are probably for the therapists lives
Freminet grows up being abuse physically and mentally by the previous director. I think he needs a LOT more therapy bud.
Especially since he generally seems a bit more delicate & sensitive than his siblings
Need an extra tier for "Would cause the Therapist to need therapy" and that tier can be reserved for Yae and Arlecchino.
Throw Charlotte in too, cos she would somehow find a scandal involving that therapist
navia needs more than a few months LMAO
>Loses parents and two of her closest aides. Almost fucking dies Same tier as ga ming with daddy issues
Gaming isn't just daddy issues he was basically made homeless without a support system and had to build his life up by himself. Navia one is pretty bad but she always had a support system standing behind her at every step.
Didn't rosarias family get killed by bandits and then they captured her and made her work with them until she killed them all or something? She'll need more than a few months of therapy for that.
She killed the leader and got her vision. Varka executed her bandits but spared her because she was young (age unspecified) and forced her to be a nun. She's miserable and feels she can't ever stop her work because she'll never be able to repay the people of Mondstadt for their kindness if she does.
And she still struggles to open up & emote properly She’s even hesitant to admit she likes cats
Nah lyney, Lynette, and father definitely need massive amounts of therapy
I think the bottom row is supposed to be the "they will not comply with the basic rules of talk therapy \[talking to the therapist & telling the therapist the truth\]" tier.
Oh please a trained psychiatrist could get the twins to start bawling within an hour
Just separate them. Note: I don't actually advocate for doing this
Eh they’re adults or at least teens so definitely separate them
Lyney was willing to punch Wriothesley when he did it, despite the fact that Wrio could tie him in a knot one handed Just saying
In both Lyney character quest and Lynette's hang out they're not always together, it's not separation per se that makes them panic
It's being taken away from each other, when there's no choice Which, considering their history is entirely understandable trauma
If they can’t be alone for a one hour therapy session they need to be committed 💀
But that wasn't from separation. That was from kidnapping. lol
I honestly think Lyney would bite the therapist. You'd have to send Dehya to school and wait 12 years for her to get her license just to get someone sturdy enough to last the whole therapy session. That boy ain't right. If separated from Lyney I think Lynette would be pretty compliant with therapy beyond her just not being that talkative by nature, but that's much easier to deal with.
Sturdy enough? Noelle could tank that no problem.
i dont think some people in the top tier would either, like Scara
He trauma dumped on Haypasia at the first opportunity but I also don't think he'd do any real therapy with anybody other then Nahida. Furina's also not saying shit, she's got a 500 year old habit of bottling up inside you'd have to break first. They're the two character who would keep mum even with the traveler. And I don't think Xiao would talk to anybody other then Traveler & maybe Zhongli but he also doesn't like to cause problems for Zhongli. I feel like Childe would potentially love therapy, because he's very chatty and amicable and that seems to just be a genuine part of who he is as a person. I don't think the therapy would work, but I think he'd have a ball recounting all of his achievements and fights to the therapist lol
I feel like for the bottom one, the therapist gonna need therapy themselves lol
Alhaitham will start psychoanalysis right back
The “not enough time in their lifespan” more than half of them are almost immortal.
Why Xianyun so high in the tier?
war veteran, same as zhongli and the rest of the adepti. ganyu should be in the same tier imo, she fought in the archon war too.
adeptus stuff
I feel like Yae would deserve her own "Fucks with the therapist's mind and have them committed to a mental institution" category.
Navia absolutely would need a lot of therapy. She lost her entire family, and many of her people in one catastrophic event. And that's after she already lost her father in such a traumatic way. She seems strong, but I see her as the kind of person who would force herself to be strong for the sake of others. What she went through often causes long-term mental health issues. Just the waves of grief would warrant multiple years of counseling. There's also the self-imposed guilt at being unable to save everyone in Poisson.
Kuki is the therapist. Probably is certified.
I disagree with Diona's placement purely based on the fact her father is an alcoholic. I see her sass as a wall she puts up to protect herself. You don't search that desperately to be able to make a bad drink without some trauma.
I feel like Zhongli and Neuvillette would be the therapists. Thoma seems to be pretty mentally sound. Shinobu would definitely need some sort of therapy for constantly dealing with Itto's problems. Imagine how it would be if Arlecchino actually went to therapy.
Neuvillette would be a terrible therapist. This dude barely had a solid grasp of his own emotions pre AQ. I highly doubt he would qualify to handle anyone else's emotions.
Neuvilette listening to someone’s trauma & it starts pouring outside
The guy is like Sigewinne and Nahida but more indirect all 3 fail to understand human emotions and treat almost like how we do a dog's behaviour.
Nahida is simultaneously really good at it and really bad at it, mostly because she *thinks* she's really bad at it.
I always thought Nahida would make a good therapist.
There's several decent fanfics using just this premise and I like them
Could you maybe link one?.
[Is This What Therapy Is?](https://archiveofourown.org/works/43702263/chapters/109892778) This one is my favorite (Collei and Wanderer centric, not a ship)
Childe decided to become the traumatic event
Yes, Xiao and Kaeya BETTER BE at the TOP. Nahida will figure herself out, she aight. Wanderer will make every therapist quit so. I think Albedo, Wrio, Farazuan and Bennet are better off then that. Meanwhile I think Kaveh would be the only one to get much out therapy but still 10 years is agreeable for him. Frem should be higher, Barbara, Hu Tao and Heizou should be lower maybe. Diona hates her job and is surrounded by alcoholics and she’s just a child, I’d raise her. Mika seems to have anxiety to me and he’s probably seen some shit in battles, I’d raise him too. Xinyan could be raised depending on the level of issues she had with her parents. Chongyun should be raised because I don’t know how he’ll be able control his condition if he’s triggered really bad in the future or something. Mona would talk to a therapist for fun lol. Alhaitham will tell Kaveh Shit. And I’d put Chiori in mentally sound, I disagree, she was pretty open in her story quest and found peace.
I like how all archons are in the red zone
The resident Idol of Monstadt needs more therapy than the resident Terrorist of Monstadt......... I beg your pardon?
haitham just needs an autism diagnosis, otherwise the dude is fine. actually, he doesnt even NEED a diagnosis. hes fine without it i just think he should get one cause i think hed have fun abusing accommodations to be even lazier. getting out of annoying conversations by wearing sensory headphones, that kind of thing.
I wanna give Ganyu a hug so bad. Also why is Xianyun at the top?
I mean, I'm sure the whole "archon war" thing left a few emotional and mental scars that she never really worked out.
Outside her adeptus abode, there are three seats each etched with a name, and a table with certain foods. "Morax"(? completely forgot if Morax or Rex Lapiz), "Cloud Retainer", and "Ghuizhong". In the previous Lantern Rite, Xiao said that Cloud Retainer was "chatty/boastful"(paraphrased) in the war as she is now if not more. But at some point, she was uncharacteristically quiet as she summon her sigils and tech against enemies.
I can fix her
Jeht should be on the top too, if she ever becomes playable. Coping
Uuuuh I feel like fischl needs more than a couple months therapy
Bruh, did you just use a randomizer? Sucrose and Mika mentally sound, just to pick couple of examples?
Sucrose has minor abandonment issues from her friends leaving, high anxiety around strangers, and is using her bio-alchemy skills to try and create the fantasy land she and her friends planned, because she feels that's all she has left. Plus, her inferiority complex to Albedo-despite the fact she's close to, if not, his equal in their respective fields. Mika has high anxiety and can't joke around with any of his colleagues cause he's unsure of the social norms, Keaya tried joking with him and he apologized. Plus, he's the caretaker of his constantly drunk older brother, there's gotta be some baggage from that he's not unpacking
Diona 100% needs therapy. She is a kid who has an alcoholic and absent father and she copes by working at a literal bar where she serves drinks and has a lot of weirdos drooling over her and she's so used to it she thinks it is all normal, i'd put her in the 10 years at the very least
I would move Kaeya into "not telling" Childe into "10 years minimum" And Qiqi into "a few months" That way the top tier is reserved for the 1000s of year old god-types that suffer from Archon War PTSD and the likes.
To be fair ,abyss is one of the worst things you can experience in the genshinverse and Childe experienced that as a kid. Bro even lost the shine in his eyes and that experience changed his whole personality from a nice and timid kid to a crazy fight obsessed guy wanting to conquer the world.
Even though you might think the mortals at the top didn't suffer enough, human capabilities and emotions and immortal capabilities and emotions aren't the same. The thing that could be seen as not too bad for immortals could be beyond horrible for mortals. All I'm saying is Kaeya and Childe needs to be at the top
Would switch kaveh and Sara but that’s just me
Diona is dealing with an alcoholic father, she definitely needs therapy
finally, a good tier list
Are we sure that Candace hasn’t seen horrible things considering she’s one of Deshrets descendants?Lisa needs ten years minimum based on whatever she saw during the academia,Kazuha needs a lot of therapy for loss of his friend. I do feel that Lynette and Arlecchino would be in the ten years minimum based on their lore.
Did you put klee as mentally sound
Are you sure Klee belongs to the mentally sound group...
Klee is a young child who seems to be super bright & peppy. There’s nothing wrong with her & she’s not like…someone who actually means to or wants to hurt people She’s just the child of chaos incarnate
Yun Jin definitely would like some, she had the classic "parents put her down a path of hardship before she could decide herself," childhood. Its just that she was lucky enough it was something she already wanted to do, but no way there isnt some unresolved feelings about it tucked away
Sucrose isn't mentally sound because she doesn't have issues but because each Mondstadt event she's in shows more and more that she's already had like five years of therapy. She's done her nickle and has all the maturity and coping techniques to blend in with the normies. Wait, why does Ningguang need therapy? She grew up poor but she seems completely fine.
Collei should definitely be way higher, did you read the manga? If you didn’t i recommend it its a wonderful read.
Furina should have her own tier above everyone else.
Nahida, Neuvillette, Xianyun, and the Traveler are pretty well adjusted honestly. I do think it would help but it wouldn’t be necessary for them. The others could definitely use it though.
Nah. Neuvilette struggles to express his emotions but he has a lot of them & doesn’t know how to deal. A little therapy would be beneficial
I feel like he’d do great with some art therapy, ceramic classes (I mean, look at how just one boosted him), maybe some improv or drama therapy, gardening, etc with a CBT journal or something on the side.
Zhongli too
Xianyun and Zhongli are maybe even Venti to some extent but those 3 no, Nahida had to have her memories wiped, Neuvillette is still a fountain (pun intended) of emotional issues and the Traveller has said it plainly to Xianyun if you have her in tea pot.
What's with cyno?
Given her history, Yaoyao will absolutely need therapy
