The writers of Psych put Shawn through tons of shit that they don't take a lot of screen-time to address, mostly because Psych is not a soap opera. Underneath all of his happy-go-lucky 'not inclined to resign to maturity' antics, we have a character that has a lot of trouble expressing his emotions, never really understood his parents' divorce, has daddy issues, makes a living by telling a gigantic lie that would probably cost him his job (and maybe land him in jail) if he told the truth, is dating one girl while in love with another, is terrified of the future and commitment, and sees dead bodies on a regular basis, some of which he may blame himself for. There is no way in hell that none of this bothers him. And honestly, I don't blame him for coping by bottling it all inside and constantly acting like a 12-year-old boy. So let's see Shawn battle some of his inner demons - but try to make sure it's in a realistic, at least sort of healthy way - no self-mutilation or suicide - that's so not Shawn.
