The Adventures of Winnie the Pooh
Most people seem to really enjoy “The Adventures of Winnie the Pooh”. Personally, I grew up watching the movie since my mom has a slight obsession with Winnie the Pooh. I had never noticed nothing strange with the movie until we started talking about mental disorders in class, I was finally able to see the movie from a different point of view. I decided to watch the movie again but this time with the purpose of identifying each characters personality. It was quite surprising to find out that most of the character have a mental disorder, I will list some of the one that caught my attention. Winnie the Pooh clearly has an eating disorder, he is always obsessed with honey and will put his life and anyone’s life at risk in order to find it, and once he does he eats every drop of it. Pooh seems to always be so focused on obtaining honey that doesn’t care about his friends or anything important that might happening around him, with this information we can easily diagnose him with OCD (Obsessive-compulsive disorder), since his obsession interferes with hid daily social life. Piglet seems to have high stress levels and anxiety, he also has a fear of almost everything which can also be consider a phobia. Next we have Tiger, who has an obvious case of hyperactivity. Tiger also seems to have ADHD (Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder), which can be explained due to the high difficulty he has when attempting to pay attention. We also have Rabbit, who has OCD
