Much better than their noble peers. The old man supports his bastards and teaches them to value family. He even kept the retarded Jinglebells around when another father might have drowned the boy. He's a better man than Hoster. He gave Walda a very generous dowry. He tries to set up the best foster families for his grandkids. He's one of the best patriarchs in Westeros. That's for Walder Frey. His successive generations are murdering each other and keeping score of where they are in the succession. Even without pissing off the rest of Westeros, his house is about to disintegrate.

300 H&H Magnum Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 The Freys are not going to disintegrate. They are too many and too powerful. Walder will eventually find the lair of the brotherhood and get rid of those pesky outlaws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then got back to howling at the moon. Maester Sigmund: And pray tell me, child. Why made you do such a thing? Arya Stark: I needed to pee, dumbass. Maester Sigmund: I meant howl at the moon. Why did you howl at the moon? Arya Stark: It was full. Why else. Maester Sigmund: Did you feel better after, er, taking a leak? Arya Stark: No. I still get the urge to murder people. Maester Sigmund: You have anger issues. How did it all start? What could bring a child to feel such terrible things? Arya Stark: It all started when the other girls started calling me Horseface. Last christmas, I got hay nuts from my sister. Maester Sigmund: And the bastard. What about him? You two are close. You even look alike. Tell me about him. Arya Stark: The weirwoods talk to me. They tell me we're going to die and become a wolf pack some day. Set Arya up for shock therapy. Not the surprise kind but the electrical kind.

Jaehaerys Tyrell Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Euron and Victarion both need to be locked up, but Theon and Aeron could certainly benefit from some therapy, although not necessarily family therapy. The Baratheons, Martells, Starks and Tullys are good examples of families that could benefit from some family therapy, given their “reasonable” issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renly can be helped. Robb, Ned, and Catelyn can be helped. Arya is too far gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eating the dead and enjoying it. That's also fucked up. Yeah that is f*cked up. Manderly in particular.

By modern standards, he's screwed up, but as somebody hailing from the Iron Islands, he's only slightly more psychotic than the average warrior. Euron? No question. He'd pretend to have some sort of social disease until he got bored and cut the therapist's throat. The Martells don't really have any problems. Unless you count the Sand Snakes, but they're beyond help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They lack the temperament to wait for the opportune moments to strike. Doran is too far on the other end of the line. He's too cautious. Playing the game of thrones require risk taking. I will quote a great man from one of my favorite groups "The things that come to those that wait may be the things left behind by those that got there first." Steven Tyler Doran Martell at the most favorable circumstances will get the left overs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mother of The Others Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 The Reader guy was all set up in his therapy office with books lining the walls and ornamental globes resting on coffee tables and classy chairs all ready to host some sessions but nobody showed up for their appointments.

S. D Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 1.LANNISTERS Well, yeah. Jaimes's obsession with Cersei (which doesn't even make sense since he was apart from her for a great deal of his childhood) needs fixing. He also needs to be given recognition for the great public service of killing Aerys (why didn't Jaime just say he had wildfire???). He plainly has trauma related to that, as he mentions dissassociating. I'm not sure how much Cersei can be helped (I think she's a born psychopath/narcissist) but most of her issues did stem from Tywin's toxic mode of parenting and being abused throughout her marriage. Someone should also give her lessons in politics and administration, because damn does she suck at it. Tyrion needs.... He needs society to be upturned basically. Being a dwarf really WAS the source of all his problems. Family therapy for all of them, but especially Cersei and Jaime. 2.BARATHEONS This is the great tragedy of ASOIAF, IMO. If the Baratheons had stuck together and not been so dysfunctional all disaster could be averted. Instead, this. First of all, Robert. Needs healthier coping mechanisms. Needs not to fuck 14 yo girls. Needs to let go of the past. Needs a better diet. Stannis has a clear inferiority/victim complex and some form of aspergers. Also trauma from watching his parents die and the Siege of Storm's End. Renly obviously has unresolved childhood trauma on many levels from the Siege of Storm's End which led to his love of luxury and comfort and insouciant approach to life. Also abandonment issues and a pathological need for attention/validation. Family therapy needed for all of them. 3. GREYJOYS Put them last because I don't think therapy would get to the root of any of their (individual) problems, with the exception of Aeron, who needs a healthier way of dealing with his sexual trauma than drowning himself in the ocean. Balon's core problem is that he's an idiot. Euron is a hopeless case, as is Victarion (though he probably could be given some help with his anger issues and narrow worldview). Family therapy needed for all of them. EDITED because I forgot about Theon and Asha Theon.. well obviously. Dude is like a walking Psych textbook. From PTSD to OCD to Stockholm Syndrome to 527272 different defense mechanisms. Needs huge amounts of therapy. Asha actually seems pretty mentally stable, so I'm not sure if she really needs therapy.
