I don't think it really hit me how horrifying Victoria Javadi's life is to me until that conversation with her mother in Season 2 ep. 10. Like. This girl isn't even 21 yet.
She isn't even 21 years old and she is a year out from graduating medical school. She's graduating on average five years earlier than most people. Javadi started medical school at 18 years old.
And yes, she could have sped through college, there are definitely ways to graduate in under four years, but I'm putting her at graduating at three years at the earliest. Maybe there is some insane way she graduated in two years, but that puts Javadi at fucking Sixteen Years Old when she started college. At The Absolute OLDEST. And in some scenarios, she's starting college at 14 years old.
and i know that this is a thing that happens. i know that, but good fucking god, has Javadi ever had any moment to be a kid? has Javadi ever had any chance to make a choice for herself? what the hell did summer vacation look like for this kid? of course her tiktok account is all about work and being a doctor - javadi doesn't know anything else, at all!
and her mother has the absolute gall to be upset that javadi has found a specialty she likes? Shamsi is honestly going to be fucking lucky if javadi doesn't turn thirty years old and realize she completely hates being a doctor! Javadi chose her career at sixteen (lets be honest, probably 14) years old and it was the job both her parents have - did she even conceive of any other options??
seriously, javadi is breaking my goddamn heart
