Elsa's shutting herself away and hiding her powers.

+ Word of God.

(Anonymous) 2014-07-01 07:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Citation needed, that Elsa shutting herself away because of her powers had anything to do with mental illness, word of god.

That doesn't make any sense. And I can understand a lot of metaphors for Elsa's power. Being gay makes the most sense to me (conceal don't feel, born that way, people will think you're a monster, etc), or really being "different" in any way.

but mental illness? Elsa wasn't metaphorically anxious and depressed, she was anxious and depressed. Because she was hiding something that made her different. That's not a metaphor, that's what it feels to hide a part of yourself. The anxious/depressed thing was a reaction to the power, not the power itself. And it would be silly that her climactic moments are embracing her "mental illness" while ceasing to be anxious/depressed at all.
