In the movie The Little Mermaid (Clements & Musker, 1989), Ariel displays symptoms of disposophobia, which is defined as the fear of getting rid of things.
Ariel is a hoarder and suffers from disposophobia. This rebellious teenager does not know what it is to clean up her room and just can't throw anything away. Her cavern is overflowing with things that she has no clue how to use, and she can't part with them.
What sets Elsa apart from the mass array of Disney princesses is her inner battle with mental illness, anxiety and depression. In Frozen II, Elsa is the only person who can hear a voice but everyone couldn't.
Snow White can be classified as having Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. The Princess meets all eight of the criteria listed in the DSM-V to diagnose PTSD (See Appendix A). First, she directly experiences a traumatic event relating to a near death experience (Criterion A1).
As such, Elsa's position as Disney's first disabled princess becomes even more important since her film is garnering more attention than any Disney film ever made including golden-age classics like The Lion King and Beauty and the Beast.
Dora is far from simply a case of hysterical neurosis, but her pathology not only reflects the dynamics of the paranoid process, but also falls within the range of the borderline spectrum of personality disorders that have been described previously (Meissner 1982b.).
Canonically, she is not romantically interested in anybody. And lest you wonder if that description means Elsa is asexual or aromantic, neither of those qualities is canon either. Canonically, she's nothing when it comes to her sexuality. Which also means she isn't (yet) canonically straight.
Maleficent, the evil lady from Sleeping Beauty is one of the evilest characters of Dinsey. She suffered from Borderline personality disorder (BPD) which means a person has inappropriate or extreme emotional reactions, is highly impulsive and has a history of unstable relationships.
A traumatic brain injury (or TBI) has many similarities to PTSD. Anna isn't traumatized, but she is also stuck replaying events. Her injury causes her mind to loop, and she starts and ends every single day of her life trying to figure out what happened to her sister.
Ariel, our beloved Disney princess can be diagnosed with Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
During his adventure, he meets and falls in love with princess Jasmine. As it turns out, Jasmine may in fact suffer from Bipolar Disorder which is a manic-depressive illness that causes people to have unusual mood shifts in a cyclical pattern.
Pocahontas and her Hallucinations
Yes, our brave girl and one of the strongest Disney characters possibly depicts two mental health conditions. Her conversations with the magical talking tree where she shares her strong hallucinations clearly marks the signs of schizophrenia.
Belle's story is a tense psychological drama, following her struggle with schizophrenia while using her hallucinations as a lens through which we can examine our own ambivalence towards class conflict.
The mermaid syndrome (sirenomelia) is an extremely rare anomaly, an incidence of 1 in 100,000 births, in which a newborn born with legs joined together featuring a mermaid-like appearance (head and trunk like humans and tail like fish), and in most cases die shortly after birth.
Although traditions about and sightings of mermen are less common than those of mermaids, they are generally assumed to co-exist with their female counterparts. The male and the female collectively are sometimes referred to as merfolk or merpeople.
In Part I of the Frozen series, I suggested that Elsa experiences something like borderline personality disorder (BPD). In this interpretation, Elsa's frozen rages are an outward display of the emotional dysregulation she feels inside.
She explained that SpongeBob was ADHD, Squidward was depression, and Mr Krabs was narcissistic personality disorder. And in her opinion, Plankton represented bipolar disorder. Below the video, she added: "How did we not notice these things sooner?"
After her defeat, it is revealed in the graphic novel The Promise that she was admitted into a mental institution in the Fire Nation due to her poor mental state, possibly schizophrenia. Both in the series and the comics, she is shown to be disturbed by frequent hallucinations of her mother.
Elsa's opening narration reflects on grief and death. She has left her post with the cattle, staying instead by the wagons. One morning, she leaves the wagons to sit by herself after getting her period (she won't be carrying Ennis' child).
The site reports, “We're told it's definitely happening and again, the intention is for Elsa to have a girlfriend in the prequel, confirming her sexuality in the process.”
Kristoff. A rugged mountain man and ice harvester by trade, Kristoff was a bit of a loner with his reindeer pal, Sven, until he met Anna.
Dora's also believed to speak about three times louder than the other characters in the series, because of her mental disability. She also suffers from classic ADHD, which is why she can't remember what map told her three times.
