I’m going to discuss one of the most intersting characters from the show regarding their psychological damage. in honor of the third season of Euphoria coming to HBO Max soon enough.

All the characters are flawed of course, but some damage is more intense than others.

Fezco

Fezco’s emotional damage stems from his brutal upbringing, which normalized violence and emotional deprivation.

Although he has been through so much pain, heart rate, and trauma, he’s still somehow maintains a stable, internal compass.

His emotional damage is legitimate, but it didn’t cause him to rot at his core. And that matters.

We know that he still has a conscience, even though he sells illegal substances, based on a scene, we saw where he felt really guilty about Rue Bennett begging him for more product.

His guilty conscience made him feel bad for selling her that stuff in the first place.

And additionally, we know he has a conscience because he was excited to show up for Lexi and be there for her to support her at her school play.

The second season ended on a cliffhanger and we know that he never actually made it to her school play, but it was heavy on his heart that he wanted to be there for her.

His conscience proves that he doesn’t feel good about doing illegal things. But the fact that he does what he does because he’s in survival mode is why he’s in fifth place. And by the way, rest in peace to Angus cloud.
