#makes you see the logic in him turning instead to eg. wakandans (who cannot resemble anyone responsible for inflicting his trauma)

Considering Bucky's recovery in a post-WS scenario, and the fact that IRL the American Psychological Association (APA) collaborated with the CIA* on mind-control and 'black psychiatry' programmes...

And it really is difficult to see how Bucky is supposed to go to doctors and psychiatrists for therapy etc., and trust them, when it was (among others) doctors and psychiatrists who inflicted his trauma?

How does he get help when the very people capable of helping him are just like the people who abused him? It's a real catch-22. 🤔
