I mean if your were a therapist, hopefully these wounds wouldn't exist? It's a fantasy question. Where are the answers coming from?

How is it a fantasy question? Most of us don't actually WANT to be therapists, and here we're giving some reasons why we might not be suited for the job. And I don't see why the options in the poll indicate wounds - or why therapists should have healed all theirs before taking up therapy.
Any intelligent adult with some self-awareness can ask themselves "would I be good at x, and what problems would x pose for me?" And find an answer without indulging in a fantasy.
I knew even before I went to graduate school that teaching would pose problems for me in terms of relating to students. In the early years of my career, this proved correct.
