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.

Nate Jacobs.

Nate’s emotional damage is horrendously dangerous. His childhood exposure to violent, sexually explicit material is one of the big causes of his emotional damage.

Couple that with emotional abuse from his father, repression of some of his own sexual desires, fragmentation of his own identity, and his inner rage turned outward at everyone else in the world, and you have the perfect storm.

Nate externalize his trauma by traumatizing others, and we saw evidence of that when he was threatening Jules.

There’s a huge fan going around that Nate has a major problem with Jules because she stirs something in him. That makes him feel angry.

Either he’s secretly attracted to her or he wishes he could be her. The fact that he asked to repress his true feelings and he feels unable to live out loud and live his truth speaks volumes.

And it’s almost like he’s following in the same footsteps of his father who we know secretly hooks up with transgender girls like Jules in hotel rooms behind his wife’s back.

Will Nate be following in his father’s footsteps in Season 3 of Euphoria? We shall find out soon enough.
