Correct Me If I’m Wrong, But Why Haven’t We Had Any Skam Characters With Social Anxiety? I Think

The Balloon Squad

“But where do we find new cool and handsome boys?”

This season is showing very well how toxic relationships can happen to any one - it can be easy to fall into when the abuser is charming, has manipulative tactics that are a trap you can fall into - where abundance of charming words and gifts makes you feel loved and taken care off but each action of the manipulator is done to their benefit, out of their selfishness - to better themselves at the expense of making their partner feel small - instead of the relationship where both are treated as equals, there is a power imbalance and shift - it can be easy to fall in but hard to get out, the abuser wants to keep feeling this surge of serotonin and power they feel when things go their way, when power is in their control, and when it is not - to find ways, out of desperation - to get the power in their hands - they are controlled by fear and in that they instilled fear into their partner...as we have seen progress from subtle signs to more obvious ones with M*quel and Nora...the abuser can be anyone- that’s the scary part, it’s not just a stranger, it can be someone you’ve known a short time or a long time -someone you find comfort in or someone you thought you had comfort in...

this season isn’t just a season of a Skam remake, not a season that comes and goes - it’s a PSA, it’s education - it’s an ongoing PSA that takes its time in telling a story that isn’t one dimensional but multilayered - multilayered in covering how the victim’s mental, physical, emotional and social health is affected, how those around them are affected, how those who have never been in a toxic relationship see what happens and the signs and constantly emphasizing that no one deserves to be treated this way to let themselves let the abuser continue to treat them this way, to not sacrifice yourself and loose yourself and that however hard and difficult - that you can get out of toxic relationship - that your strength is not defined by the abuser but by you, it is not weak to seek help, it is strong, it is strength - you are strong and not alone.

I’ve learned this and more as a viewer and as someone who’s never been exposed to a toxic relationship, and I can only imagine how inspiring and powerful this is and can be for you girls, young people, teens, adults, anyone..

So yes, this season is important, this season is valuable, this season is necessary -Nora’s story is important as is her voice - while M*quel would want her her voice faded, lowered, silenced...Nora’s voice will be louder & will be heard - because it is valid and valuable as she is in her being, her thoughts and her self..her self worth... and this is a lesson that is emphasized throughout this season, throughout Skam España
