Occasionally, as you're randomly scrolling through X, a strange hypothesis will cause you to go completely through a rabbit hole.They may get very bizarre, whether they are about a TV character's past, a celebrity's romantic past, or something crazier like Eminem being replaced by a clone.?
However, if it's trying to convince you that your childhood "was a lie," it might really get you.And nothing brings back our early years more than the classic character Winnie-the-Pooh.?
Get ready to hear the disturbing fan theory that will change the way you think of the bear who loves honey.?Before making an appearance in books, Disney programs, and motion pictures, Pooh made his debut in a children's story in 1925.?
However, a very sinister hypothesis regarding the true meanings of each character in the sentimental tales has been around for almost a century.It turns out that characters like Eeyore, Piglet, and Tigger are thought to symbolise different mental illnesses.?
A.A. Milne, the author of Winnie-the-Pooh, is said to have intended for the animals in Hundred Acre Wood to symbolise this, although this has long been a widely held belief.?
The theory was first proposed in a lighthearted Canadian Medical Association Journal publication back in 2008.Back then, the BBC stated that rather than implying the characters are unquestionably affected by diseases, the main author Sarah Shea wanted to "remind people that anyone can have disorders."?
The paper provided diagnoses for the characters and revealed the "Dark Underside" of this universe.This included the fact that Winnie-the-Pooh had borderline intellectual functioning, OCD, and ADHD; he frequently refers to himself as having "very little brain."
Next, Eeyore is depressed, Owl has dyslexia, Rabbit is a narcissist, and Piglet suffers from anxiety.?
Additionally, it states that Christopher Robin suffers from a childhood gender identity issue and that Tigger has ADHD, namely the hyperactivity-impulsivity subtype.?
Other interpretations contend that the animals are all symbolic of the several identities that young Christopher Robin possesses, or that he suffers from schizophrenia.
