Yes I’ve noticed this too!! In fact I came to this thread from Disney in Denial’s where I was thinking just that.I've slowly started to notice this is the running theme for a lot of "theme park vloggers" They use this "Disney is my escapism" linked in with some sort of mental disorder and use it to justify paying thousands of dollars for a trip to Disney. Why is it that like 98% of Disney Vloggers all suffer from Anxiety or Depression?!?
Good question. It could be a whole host of things. It could be people desperately scrambling on to their childhood (if they went to Disney as kids), it could be those who had poor or neglectful childhoods and are trying to claw back a “childhood” as an adult. It could also be a narcissistic thing where newer Disney vloggers have realised it’s a good way to make quick money and so are just being exploitative, or it could be people who are lacking a sense of identity and so have essentially adopted Disney as a personality trait, which I think is a common theme in a lot of the Disney vloggers we talk about here on Tattle like Brogan for example
There is nothing wrong with Disney obviously. I’m in my 30s and love it and love going to the parks, but not in an obsessive or unhealthy way and I have not absorbed it as part of my identity!
