That's basically what therapy is. The lack of vitamin is the damage you received in your childhood that you just thought was normal.
Then you actually recount the experience to a therapist and they tell you how not normal that is and help you to recognize the fact that you had to go through that without support and that the way you are is because you had to cope to support yourself to survive when no one else was there for you.
Once you know it then you can tell all your friends and get them to awe at your seemingly inhuman perseverance.
Therapy might help with the childhood trauma but it imparts the poverty trauma.
Which one is better depends on the build you're going for and whether you want to recruit all companions and get the true ending or are fine with the neutral.
Unfortunately this is the case in America but not everywhere. Seems like a trauma on it's own.
That said, there are resources and many therapists in the US who will work for free or at reduced rates on a case by case basis.
