Am I the only one who has noticed that in Supernatural, God is a classic narcissist, and Castiel demonstrates all the symptoms of being an adult child of a narcissist?
Traits of adult children of narcissists:
- Never feel good enough hoặc valuable enough
link
- Deeply afraid to speak up confidently hoặc challenge others
link
- Very attuned to what everyone around them is feeling, leading to an inability to protect themselves from other people’s emotions.
link
- Chronically unsure of themselves and overly-worried about what others think of them.
link
- Deeply insecure, and unable to believe that any tình yêu they receive is unconditional.
link
- The relationships they do form are deeply challenging.
link
- They feel used and beaten up bởi their work, their bosses, and their colleagues, and can’t understand why their careers are so challenged and difficult.

Sounds like someone we know, doesn’t it? ;)
Even Castiel’s flattened affect (something none of the other thiên thần demonstrate) could be explained bởi childhood trauma related to his unhealthy relationship with his “father.” ;)
link
Perhaps this is why Castiel and Dean have bonded so strongly. Dean’s father fits the narcissist prototype pretty well. Could be they recognize some of their own trauma in each other.
Anyway, that’s MY head canon. Hee. You’re welcome to yours. ^_^

Bonus observation:
If Castiel is God's son...
And humans are also God's children...
But demons are humans corrupted bởi Lucifer...
Who is also God's son...
That means that whenever Castiel and Crowley are working together, it's like when the oldest child leaves trang chủ and then has to come trang chủ for the holidays and has to play nice will these monster children his parents created after he left home. XD

the lost winchester
Dean was outside, leaning against the cabin, when Jo came standing tiếp theo to him.
“You look happy” she đã đưa ý kiến sarcastic.
“It sounds weird, but right now I wish Dick Roman was still alive” Dean said. “I have too much time to think”
“You want me to call mom? I think she knows a few ways to fix that” Jo commented.
“Where is she?” Dean asked.
“To the city, doing groceries” Jo answered. She looked up. “Did bạn hear from Cas? I mean, that’s why you’re so neurotic, right?”
Dean shook his head. “I don’t want to talk about it. He’s had his chance, he blew it. I’m done with him”
“Have bạn tried talking to him?” Jo asked.
Dean leaned phía trước, chuyển tiếp and kissed her. “No talking about Cas” he said.
“Okay” Jo agreed. She threw her arms around Dean’s neck and kissed him back. Dean lifted her in his arms and carried her inside the cabin.
