    Or it is more complex than that. She was born blue, this led to her mother being overbearingly careful with her and her dad just assumed she must be damaged - just one possible thing that comes to mind. The quality is bad and I cannot read more than the titles but what I mean is that titling a slide is probably not the whole story to it. God knows what she has to tell.

      Oh I absolutely thought about her being born blue being more of a statement of her family’s reaction since she never stopped hearing about it likely, so to tell that story means it was in someone’s mind a lot.

      It just sounds very self aggrandizing to call a power point “My Trauma” and then have a slide that says

      I am a Gemini (I know sorry) I didn’t even get my own toys growing up

      It’s probably a joke but I know people that are like this and would make me sit through a presentation on why they are so unique and I can’t stand it.

        You mean the twin thing? Same logic tho. Perhaps her parents always put her twin sister first and she was the golden child. Sibling dynamics can be sickenly complicated and, yes, traumatizing. She is not talking about her zodiac sign as far as I can tell. And I mean yes it is probably a joke, but at the same time it might be very pragmatic if you are in therapy anyway. Instead if telling something over and over just tell about the progress you made with a previous professional in a presentation (so that also you don’t forget something important)

          No no. I can read it. She actually mentions her zodiac sign. That was verbatum from the slide on being “the evil twin”

          But like slides on progress is something this desperately inwant to be a joke cause this implies they are still stuck on minor inconveniences as their source of trauma. No wonder their is a massive backlog for therapists if this is what people are working on with multiple psychologists.

            Not that it matters but does does go on to make it clear she’s actually a twin, mentioning they get the same presents (“AKA I always get a boy toy” because her twin is a boy as per the picture) but a pro is a built-in friend.
