I think that Rue's fear of being a burden, comes from knowing that her family has problems that she sees as more important (her mom already has two jobs, his father has cancer, etc) so she doesn't think that she's the one that needs help, comparing to those problems.
yes i agree
yes thats def it
So many great characters to cover for this show (Rue, Jules, Lexi, Fezco, Maddy, Cassie, Nate). 🦦
Please continue doing these amazing videos!
It will happen
@@GeorgiaDow
Awesome, I’m glad you’re covering such a great show, especially coming from someone who’s personally struggled with substance abuse it’s very appreciated, so thank you for covering this important yet delicate topic.
By the way, I absolutely loved your Encanto and Arcane videos, and I’d still LOVE a video done on Mel’s mom from Arcane, although I don’t know if there’s enough material of her to go off of, but I’d still love it since she’s in my top 5 favorite characters of the show.
oh my god yes! im so happy that youre talking about this show, its phenomenal! i would kill for you to cover jules and maddy, especially maddy tbh
Oh Jules the beginning is up next then you know we are going through everyone and their relationships... SO GOOD
@@GeorgiaDow yay!! im so glad youre covering this show, its great!
@@GeorgiaDow Euphoria it's a show about visibility, and explaining all that happens inside their minds will help a lot of people to feel understood. You're awesome, Georgia, I love your content
"Phenomenal" im sorry but you guys are so easy to impress
I feel like Euphoria is the ideal show for a channel like yours. So many interesting things to talk about💖
I think so too!
Rue was the last person I thought I’d be relating to but it makes so much sense now. I always say I’ve been tired ever since I was born without even doing anything. I’d be coping by sleeping and not being present in the moment. I never got any medication cause where I am from, they don’t diagnose you with this kind of stuff. Just calling you a difficult child and keep hating on you:) I’m 31 now and pretty sure I have ADHD but it doesn’t affect me as much anymore. When I was a child I had a constant anxiety and never showed it at school. However, I would come home and cause ruckus there for what I got labeled “burden” in my family that they had to carry. It’s interesting to think how much alone I felt but that I never took any of their scolding seriously. I was rather turning against my family than thinking it’s my fault. I guess, that’s the only case when narcissism is actually a blessing lol
I agree we should have classes on how to deal with emotions starting from kindergarden
here here =) maybe one day
Oh man, if you could do the Jules special episode where she talks to her therapist, that would be a treat, because I struggle to understand it. I'm worried about how it is with copyrights though.
i will be doing jules also =) first her starting point
I heavily relate to Rue. I was never as bad as she was with drugs but I relate to her a lot because I have GAD, OCD, ADHD Inattentive, and Panic Disorder (along with a few other disorders that she doesn’t have, i.e PTSD and Tourette’s, I was diagnosed at the National Institute of Mental Health) but I think it’s so cool that the main character on a huge tv show has so many of the same disorders as I do! (I guess she would have PTSD after her dad passed but I don’t think it’s explicitly said in the show). It’s really nice to see someone who has multiple disorders in a hit show because people don’t believe it when you sound like you’re reading a list of all disorders. I usually don’t tell people about my disorders because I feel like people think I’m lying. I hope this shows the neurotypical population that people with a bunch of different disorders exist!
euphoria is such a good show i can’t wait to hear more of your thoughts on the characters!
me too =) Jules beginning is next
I learned so much from this. I have anxiety (undiagnosed) I think my anxiety comes from being bullied and always worried by my appearance and how I’m perceived. I think me viewing the world as so unsafe is why my anxiety in a social setting gets bad. I’ve learned now to do positive affirmations and to take it day by day
All these characters should get therapy lmao cant wait for a nate and a maddie analysis (he should be studied and i cant wait to hear what you have to say about him, and she has such a strong ego that i Need to know how to be more like her lmao queen)
Its crazy that jules is the only one w therapy and she ruins so many other peoples lives
13:44 one day Georgia, one day. This subject is so important and people are just starting to realize it. I myself definitely needed classes to teach me these things.
=) it is important Alfon and remember so are you
i never watched the serie before
great analysis as always and really makes me wanna watch this show
=) let me know what you think if you do
i recomend you dont watch it, as far as i can tell all characters are assholes and no characters are really likable. and once you find them likable they dile down from that tier list quite fast. its more or less "no mom i dont do drugs" or "yes i slept with this guy now i will get hate" or "ok i slept with this person and did drugs"
@Ahri Landgren so u never watched this show. do u. lol
@@GeorgiaDow yea it was pretty cool, not a big fan of teen/drugs/sex at that extreme but i do like how is treated and how all of that changes and affect the characters
also JULES AAAAA oh myyy i really liked her and specially the post train episode (idontthinkitsspoilerxdsry) great trans repreentation there
thanks for showing im hyped for what's next (/ n .n)/💜
@@evilynlandgren451 uuuuh too late did watch it
also wtf are you talking about, its a r18 show about teenagers of course they do that kind of stuff. i mean go watch it again and learn something or dont watch it and stfu
So exited you picked euphoria and especially rue for this video. I think the characters are all sooo interesting, unique and have different issues that need to be talked about more. Definitely looking forward to more videos on euphoria 😍
Yay, thank you!
you nailed the outfit for this one! can't wait to hear more of your thoughts on this show
yay
I love Georgia's reaction videos in general, so I can't be surprised it's my first ever comment on TH-cam.
I haven't watched Euphoria, but the contrast between my empathy with Rue's bleak narrative to your soothing tone had me crying in five minutes. With a mixture of ADHD, fibromyalgia and anxiety disorder, modern life to me does feel like fighting against an invisible army, sometimes. I can't rightly understand why, but I'm feeling a bit more forgiving towards myself after this.
Thank you so much for your work.
I am honoured this is your first ever comment and that this helped you feel more empathy to yourself makes me so happy. I appreciate you sharing and making my community brighter.
FINALLY. I've been waiting for you to cover this show, I'm excited to see your take on these characters. 👀
oh my actual goodness I cant believe you read my comment and three days later you make a reaction to the recommendation I love you!!!!! I really want to see character reviews on the euphoria characters
Yes I did and it is happening =)
OMG!!!! You did it. So cool to hear your take about such characters and series.
pls do keep making more euphoria vids! i would especially like to see one about the relationship between nate and his dad and how nate found his dads CDs at such a young age and how that affeced him, also one about jules and her relationship with her mom! theres just a lot of interesting characters and moments in the show that i would like to see covered on ur channel! great vid as always! ur my fav therapist channel! keep up the great work!
If people seem to enjoy them I will =)
thank you so much for analysing this show!!
thanks it was a lot of fun
You are my new favorite therapy channel! You do great work!
aww thank you Amber =)
As someone diagnosed with bpd and had to get sober by 19,,,,,, I relate to rue to the point it hurts
I love your reaction so much, other ones I’ve watched from professionals seem to over critique the show and rue and miss the point. I love that you explain what rue is feeling while also explaining the medical/science side of what’s going on, without correcting the characters experiences!
Thank you so much!!
I’m so happy you made a Euphoria video! I would LOVE if you made a video about Nate Jacobs. His character is so messy and interesting to me. Another great video!
Great suggestion!
@@GeorgiaDow That might take more than one video. 😳
im so happy to listen to you discuss the rest of the series!
will be
I can't believe you're talking about Euphoria! I love this
YES! I literally just commented asking for this!
Perfect! I listened =)
I love her chuckle after she was talking about ADD 🤣
omg im so glad i found you, i absolutely love your content, can't wait to see more.
welcome
Yes. As a big fan of your channel and this show having your perspective on these characters is the wine to the cheese. Can't wait to see the rest of your analysis and how the new season grow your perspective.
thanks I hope people enjoy it
I love your analysis! :)
I have BEEN waiting on this! This show is perfect for your reviews!!
Hope you enjoy it!
I was not expecting euphoria! Can't wait for more reviews!
yes more to come
Omg I’ve been waiting for you to do Euphoria!!!!!!!!
I've been waiting for this
delivered right to you
Holy coincidence. I just started this show last night.
I'd love to see more character analysis, and Rue evolution as well.
i will if people seem to want it
Thanks for sharing. I look forward to watching future reactions. Blessings on your day.
Thank you Jeff = )
Thank God a therapist is talking about this show, cuz HOLLY MOTGER OF JESUS each character in this show needs a persinal therapist 👁👁
they are all very complex
I`ve just watched this serial for the first time during the week and I like it so much, please continue recording videos about other characters!!!!
will do
I relate to rue so much this video made me cry because she was describing feelings i can’t voice myself.
Omg !!! I’m so happy that you’re doing videos about Euphoria !!!! I can’t wait to see a video about nate lol and fyi, I absolutely love your arcane videos !
Thank you : )
You should do one on cassie, everyone hates her because its so easy to write off her behavior as just "messy emotional girl" but she has her own real set of issues and trauma and i hate that because her traumas are common to us (addict father who leaves, her value placed on her looks, manipulated into unwanted sxual situations, revenge porn etc etc) and less extreme than say rue or nate, no one cares. Even being able to see through her perspective which humanizes even people like nate and cal, still just like real life cassie is the one everyone hates.
Wasn't sure I wanted to watch this series (I got quite a list of stuff I want to watch still, but little time atm.) You've definitely got me interested. Thank you!
welcome let me know what you think
Pls react to the rest of the series, specially Rue and Jules's special episodes. Those are so good and I would love to hear you talking about them.
I love your takes. There's not much I relate to here on this one, except feeling like a burden even in extreme situations. The first time I had a panic attack I thought I was dying, it was the middle of the night, and I didn't want to wake anyone, so I waited to die and wrote my symptoms down to better help the figuring out what happened, 40minutes later I went to bed and said nothing until a month later which is when dad told me what it was and how he got them too. But I never stopped feeling like a burden throughout my entire teenage life, and that thought process still affects me even if I no longer feel that way, I don't feel like a burden anymore even if I am one cuz we all have the right to exist as ourselves, but because of that thinking I never developed the confidence to develop my individuality, I never made mistakes as a teenager because of that fear to be a burden, so I never learnt how to cope with making mistakes, so now I'm too avoidant, I don't try so I don't fail technique, it's not great, could be worse, but it's defo not ideal
Always enjoying your Videos
I appreciate that!
Freaking love this show!
its so good =)
Im so excited for your next Euphoria cosplays
me too =)
Her videos is very amazing and this person is the greatest therapist
aww thanks
You should do Azula from Avatar next
Amazing video! Also wanted to say that i have chosen psychology as a subject in school
That's awesome! hope you enjoy it =)
You could make a video a day for the next 5 years about the characters in this show.
Season 2 episode 5 alone warrants like 5 videos alone.😅
oh my god!! I was hoping you'd cover this show :D
happened
Hey queen! Thank you for the amazing content, you are absolutely fantastic. I had a giggle over here listening to your voice as I cook, because you sound very similar to Jules' voice in the show! It was like a character analysing the other 😁 thanks again for the excellent video!
You are so welcome!! Quite the compliment thank you for the voice and title =))
Lol, little rituals that start small that get bigger I have feel that, Really great info
Thank you Grimm you are always so kind
@@GeorgiaDow thanks, I try to always do good and be good, PS would love to see more of this show
I used to pray for times like this 🙏. I’m so glad you made a Euphoria video
Hope you enjoyed it!
@@GeorgiaDow I absolutely loved it. You make the best reactions and analyses on the entire platform. I can’t wait for you to make a video on Nate or Cal Jacobs
i relate a lot to this. i have generalized and social anxiety as well as severe depression. i was also diagnosed with narcolepsy. before covid hit i was doing really really well. i was leaving the house daily, i had lost 100lbs, taking public transit, interacting with strangers daily. now i've regressed. it feels like i've wasted so much time of my life doing nothing. but i'm just tired. the thought of leaving the house just fills me with anxiety - not even because of covid but because of interacting with people.
Hope you’re doing well ❤
Thank you for seeing my suggestion! I'm gonna ser the video as soon I got home
I did and its a great show
@@GeorgiaDow it is indeed :)
I watch this show I relate to rue and Jules so much
Yes more pls!
I love Euphoria for a number of reasons, Rue's mental health is one of many. Unfortunately, living with someone with lifelong CPTSD, benzos are the only thing that help her. Years of therapy have accomplished almost nothing.
Alternate show - I would adore seeing you look at the characters of Amazon's "The Wilds"
This is why I am exhausted all the time
Nice to know the reason why I tend to be exhausted is my anxiety.
Jumps from the ceiling:
Hello there Georgia 😀
Victor !! =) hope you liked it
Thank you so much for bringing up the breathing thing. Counselors always tell me to do breathing techniques and I tell them it makes me lightheaded and I can't breath. I always get a weird look for that
Yes not everyone knows it doesn't work for everyone
i cant way for a reaction / analysis for cassie & lexi!!
I honestly can’t wait until you analyze the other characters as well. 🥰
next one will be soon
oh yes !!!!! amazing
now i finally understand why im exhausted all the time #anxietyanddepression #bpd
Loved your commentary on Rue. I think It would be interesting to see you do one on Beth Harmon from the Queens Gambit.
I'm so glad you brought up that breathing exercises doesn't work on everyone! Not nearly talked about enough in psychology!
Thanks. it really isn't a well known fact =) thanks for appreciating it
I feel bad that I find this funny but I got the same diagnosis as a kid. All three of them actually. It’s really good to hear someone explaining this well and also make an interesting video about it. Well done
Thank you very much and there is a reason I dont take to labels very often.
This is what I've always wanted. :)
yay
After you finish Euphoria can you maybe do The Losers Club from IT/IT2 or Barry? Both have characters dreanched in trauma and abuse.
I’m really excited to see what you say about Neat
I will do Nate also
I love your channel. Would definitely be curious for more characters like Jules and Nate.
Also for more on Victor Stone/Cyborg from Zack Snyder’s Justice league
I will be doing more of the euphoria characters
I love your laugh it's so precious
aww thanks =)
OH MY GOD YOURE DOING EUPHORIA NOW??? i am happy
Yay !!!!
Great review of this character from this show.
thanks Damian
@@GeorgiaDow don’t mention it I have never seen this show but have heard crazy things about it.
I feel so much from 13 minutes in on like I can relate
This may sound strange but...even though i relate to Rue in bits and pieces, because I am of this newer generation, I feel like I get attached to people like you and other online influencing therapist (Dr. Kirk Honda is another). I get anxiety when if there is a 3 day period of no upload (because of Covid or in Rue's case, bcuz of 9/11) so I worry uploaders are sick and I won't get advice or learn something new. I almost feel like good, caring, influencers are drugs to me since covid did affect me pretty horribly...and I worry that if its bad, i don't have an answer or cure around it =/
wot you think, Georgia-san T_T?
I think we can get attached to people who make us feel better and that can be like a drug. If people make us feel better an happier it is a positive effect. You also want to help find ways to make yourself learn how to make yourself feel good inside yourself. So you have a few methods to stay happy. Thank you for placing me on your list =) Appreciate it and i am honoured
@@GeorgiaDow oh yeah, huh... 🤔 i guess i could give that a go, aye? thank you so much! ^^
...and please stay safe out there xD
and happy. lol
A Very fascinating video. I would pay millions of dollars for a analysis on percy de rolo’s psyche from the legend of Vox machina no mercy percy!!!!
Zendaya was born for this role!
is exceptional in it
With the new Peacemaker show finishing do you think you would do another video on him?
I might not sure though
I haven't watched this show yet and not sure I want to. Is this a show where the characters improve or is it the kind of show that just immerses you in despair?
I dont find it filled with despair but it is very complex characters with a lot of different issues they need to cope with.
Living for those giggles now. = ) Although, I'm not sure what you mean about being easily...SQUIRREL!...distracted. People with anxiety are not enamored with talking to me. The conversation usually starts by them sharing, and then asking me if I have ever had a fearful experience. "I don't want to tell you." Then they learn that I have had an unusual number of "run where the brave dare not go" experiences, and that afterward...I just let go of the anxiety. (Okay. Except for dating ;) And then they compare and they feel worse. Which is why I didn't want to tell them in the first place. What they don't realize is that this is what I was taught. From an early age. Survive it, then let go. (Okay. Except for dating ;)
Oh I completely know what .... squirrel ... you were referencing which makes me so happy =)
@@GeorgiaDow Well...i AM an aspiring balloon salesman....= )
I literally can't watch this show...I triggers me way to much
I would get a panik attack or a depressive episode with each episode I watch😂
yes lets stick to other shows then
@@GeorgiaDow quick question I know u probably have things to do sorry in advance... shouldn't I kinda force myself to watch it to kinda get over it and deal with my issues, like put myself in these stressful situation so that they get easier in the future?
(quick answer is sufficient if u have time thx)
Hey, same thing for me. Just wanted you to know you're not alone, (idk if that helps lol). I wondered if i should force myself to watch it or not but personally i have come to the conclusion that i should probably try easier shows 1st, bc that one is a really tough one.
I was happy to see someone else is struggling with this, i feel less alone
@@justinesprice9782 appreciate it...yes ofcourse it helps thx🥰
Suggestion: episode "Free Churro" from BoJack Horseman
General Anxiety Disorder... Welp, guess i'll make a appointment with my GP to get a reference to a psych...
can you talk about season 2 episode 5?
U should def react to bound 1996 with Gina gershon and Jennifer tilly!!!
I have a question. So at 8:07 where they put a bag to her mouth... How exactly should that help? People have tried to do that to me many times and every single time it makes me close to fainting because I feel like I can't breathe even more than before the bag? Does anyone know why? This bag thing seems to help everyone but me (I know that I'm most likely not the only person who has that but I'm just wondering why it has the opposite effect on me?)
yes it isn't something we do usually anymore. I Just stay calm and let them slowly slow down their breathing instead of having them increase their co2 which for some people makes them more anxious.
@@GeorgiaDow Ah I see! Thank you for the reply :)
Medically speaking, you faint because you exhale too much CO2. Bag over face means that you're inhaling the same air you exhale, which "recycles" your CO2
Could you do a reaction to the someone from the peaky blinders series? Let's say, for example, Arthur or Tommy
that was a great show
15:01 😢😢
My mom and I make that joke a lot actually, cause I came out dead with the umbilical around my throat 😅😅😅
Yes please b I love you for euphoria
Please please please do a video on Jules!
Doc or anyone have suggestions on books to read in helping combat anxiety/depression?
the anxiety workbook on amazon is good and one for depression too
@@GeorgiaDow is there a particular author?
Also, seems like I missed a reaaaally good show !
