My ex-boss, who finally retired early with a depressive illness, was wont to sent cards characterising himself as Eeyore.

A realist, definitely!

this looks like a good opportunity to wheel out my ancient Eeyore joke.

Q: It was discovered that Tolkien and AA Milne did in fact write a book together. What was it called?

I don't know; what was it called?

I think Eeyore also shows paranoid tendencies - and I don't think we can rule out a diagnosis of schizophrenia.

A pessimist, I think.

Someone who needed someone to go up to him, give him a good slap and shout "Get a grip and a f***ing life you cynical, depressive ass!" in his furry ear.

...which would probably make his depression twice as bad...

I sat next to a colleague known as eeyore for a long time. One of those people who find a problem for every solution and did indeed have their own cloud of gloom...

Eeyore was a romantic who'd been hurt one too many times.

Er, I mean, a realist. Yes, a realist.

I don't think you can really categorise him as any of the above, actually.
