Childhood Ruined Part Two: Evil Queen.

Do all of our favorite Disney characters have mental illnesses?

Childhood Ruined Part Two: Evil Queen.

The Evil Queen might be one of the most mentally disturbed characters in all of Disney. Her narcissistic personality means she is devoted to her thirst for power.

Not only her thirst for power but she puts herself above all others. Even to the extent that viewers never see her govern her own kingdom.

The queen is obsessed with beauty. I believe that her passion to be the ��fairest of them all�� is what leads her to plan the murder of her step daughter without any remorse.

She suffers intense delusions, staring into a mirror day after day, believing it speaks to her. When a mirror comes to life or any object comes alive and talks to you, i would think that there was a point where it may believe some delusions. With the mirror to reaffirm her belief that she is the most beautiful person in her kingdom, that was just the start of her mental breakdowns.

Intense paranoia also has its grip on the queen. The queen forces Snow White to become a servant to maintain her status though she still can’t shut out her doubts when her step daughter encounters the prince.

On the verge of another breakdown she orders the huntsman to cut out the princess’ heart. But when they failed, she definitely has a breakdown which she tries to take matters into her own hands. She then transforms into the little old lady to convince her to eat the apple which poisons her.

Her madness makes it known to the kingdom that it is her that needs to be put to death. When love wins, Disney closes the happy ending with a ball and wedding.

Moral of the story is kill off who is more beautiful than you and you will get the prince in the end!


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.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
