I find it pretty weird how the fandom sees Mikey as the "therapy brother" because not only is that, not really supported by the show (except in a single episode) it also doesn't match up with how I remember him at all. Sure, if he noticed one of us was dealing with a problem he'd want to help, but 1) he wasn't actually very good at helping most of the time and 2) we didn't like, go to him with our problems, especially if we were dealing with emotional stuff; if anything, we were more likely to talk to Raph about that (which, was an issue by itself tbh, but this ask is already pretty long)
Tl;dr, just because someone is emotional doesn't mean they're equipped to handle other people's emotions, Mikey isn't the therapy brother even in canon. -Donnie, rottmnt (#✨🌂🍽️)
