Question:

Do the characters of "Winnie the Pooh" represent mental disorders?

2 LIKES UnLike

So me and a friend were talking about Winnie the Pooh, and realized we could correlate emotional and psychological disorders to each character.

Winnie the Pooh -- eating disorder

Piglet -- general anxiety disorder

Rabbit -- OCD

Tigger -- ADHD, possible substance abuse

Eeyore -- Major Deppressive/Manic Depressive

Christopher Robbin -- schizophrenic

Kanga/Roo -- Codependent

Owl -- Narcissistic (?)

Any other ideas?

    Owl could be looked at in two other ways also:

    In many regions owls are a symbol of wisdom, so owl can be the wise one and/or the therapist.

    He could also be agoraphobic- which means terrified of leaving your home.

    Piglet is not anxious, he is g*y. And rabbit has drug addictions. All others are right on.

    Except Owl is mental retardation, he keeps asking question, Whoo?

    I was cracking up laughing reading this! I think you did a good job, but Owl is the one that is still up in the air for me. I would not say Narcissistic, maybe he is the therapist in the group.

    Love the way you diagnosed them so well.Can't think of anything else I could add to it.

    That's like the comic by Ross Chast: The Pharmacologist of OZ. Scarecrow gets Ritalin. Lion gets Xanax. Tin Man gets L-Dopa.
