Like most Psyduck, our favorite three haired duck bill has a constant headache, meaning the headache cannot be classed as mental health. However, the intensity of Psyduck’s headaches appears to me as some sort of mental condition. Especially when you consider that Psyduck cannot use any of its Psychic powers until its headache is so monumentally painful it blasts out of him, sometimes uncontrollably. The strain that is put on Psyduck should at least gain him some understanding when he forgets how to treat others and as I’ve often pointed out at the compassion the others show, it does.

Finally, the way in which Psyduck fails to function adequately is his inability to swim. Seen as other Psyduck have been shown swimming in the series, including newly hatched Psyduck proving that swimming is innate for them, one can conclude Psyduck was perhaps depraved as a child. Depraved in the sense that he may have had little, maybe no, experiences with the water. When an innate skill is not performed during an earlier period of life, it can be forgotten and that’s how I’d explain Psyduck not knowing how to swim. Of course it could also be explained by a million physical illnesses, but I don’t know much about that.
