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.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
