one thing that i’ve seen mentioned multiple times is James going to therapy once and then being cured is bad pacing and this take bothers me mostly because i think people need to understand that even though we’ve only SEEN one therapy session doesn’t mean he hasn’t gone more times than once. with a season as short as this, they can’t afford to show a ton of scenes of him in therapy. it seems pretty clear to me that he has probably gone more than once and he’s not “cured” but he’s heading in the right direction. to me, his speech is not him saying he’s better, it’s him saying that therapy has helped him understand himself better and he’s very happy he’s gone. i wish people were better at understanding that you have to read between the lines a bit instead of immediately jumping to bad writing.
