Childhood Ruined Part Five: Hundred Acre Woods!

Far, far away in the Hundred Acre Woods is a story many children and even adults know and love. But looking deeper into the story you see that not only one or two but all six main characters seem to have a mental illness.

What if these characters don��t even exist; the obvious answer is that Christopher Robin is a schizophrenic and they all exist as delusions in his mind. Why fight for friends when you can just make believe them? Childhood 101.

If we put that disturbing thought to the back of our heads for a second, then we can open our eyes to the fact of every main character could possibly have a mental illness.

The main star, Winnie The Pooh, I would say he has Impulsive and Obsessive Fixations. His obsession for honey makes him climb a tree to raid a beehive just to eat, regardless of the unknown future.

Of course the conveniently named piglet, Piglet. Piglet lives in constant stress. He is worried over the slightest everyday activity to my opinion describes General anxiety disorder. The anxiety that most people can handle day to day, is overwhelming for him.

His house has to be clean, clean, clean! Rabbit shows signs of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. He practices military dictator-ism on his friends and is constantly cleaning.

The most blindly obvious issue of the all, Eeyore is constantly pessimistic. Eeyore shows signs of Depressive Disorder he lives his life unable to appreciate even the smallest things in life.

And of course Tigger, consistently showing signs of Attention Deficit Disorder. Not only can he not sit still but he bounces through his friend's lives like a tornado, causing chaos wherever he goes! That may remind you of some of your own friends!


This article is not to say these disorders are any laughing matter; they are serious mental health issues. This is based on opinion not me diagnosing her.

Until next time. Live, Laugh, and Prosper my friend.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
