50 Relatable Memes About Mental Health Shared By This Facebook Page That Might Make You Feel Bad For Laughing
It seems like every day there are more and more conversations taking place about the importance of nurturing our mental health. Health doesn’t simply mean staying active and eating lots of fruits and vegetables. It also means checking in with yourself and taking time to consider your feelings. It involves removing yourself from people or situations that make you uncomfortable and replacing them with alternatives that empower you. It means resisting the urge to bottle up your feelings, and perhaps most importantly, it means prioritizing finding time to have fun. And while discussions about mental health should certainly be taken seriously, if you find that laughter eases the pain, we might have the perfect list for you...

This page, which has amassed an impressive 360k followers since its launch in 2019, is all about creating a safe space for individuals to find humor in their mental health (or lack thereof).

My coworkers call me out because my facial expressions tell the conversation I have in my head.
This is why I love autorefill! All my anxiety meds with only some of the anxiety!
I'm very excited about getting dementia and dying a horrible death!
I DID NOT GIVE THESE PEOPLE PERMISSION TO USE MY PICTURE LIKE THIS
C r a p this reminded me I have homework for math and English. Uuuuggggghhhhhh
Yeahhhh, this happened to me a lot. I've been med free for more than 20 years.
Please forget everything I've ever told you, I'm definitely a totally sane person.
Imagine your back cracking. This is the dream people, especially whilst being a burrito
Anyone else ever feel so lonely when they idly scroll through their texts and the last one was a while ago? Currently convinced I'll never have a successful social interaction and spend the rest of my life alone 😁
This was quite a pickle to get out of. And I still keep getting stuck there!
Honestly, self care when you’re struggling with depression sounds pretty good. Definitely sounds like a win, like a big accomplishment. When I’m really struggling, it’s a good day if I get out of bed (even if it’s to go to the couch) and a really good day if I shower. Nails? Face mask? Goodness, that sounds exhausting when I’m spiraling down.
My husband will 100% do this. He's like, you're out, I'm out! Let's go lol
Half the time when I'm outside my brain will be like 'you should jump in front of a car' and it takes all of my energy to convince myself not to
I just come here. Hard to freak out about things in your real life when you're freaking out about whether or not internet strangers think your comments are socially acceptable.
It's because of hyper vigilance. Normally people with any of those are somewhat paying attention to things outside their bubble (hearing people walk down a hallway, hearing the fridge turn off). But if you get really involved or distracted you don't register the noises so you have a greater startle reflex to them. White noise helps to give your body something else to concentrate on which is why people with all of those issues enjoy them.
Yeah, no, IDK what you mean *scrolling away at 5:30 am on a Sunday because I can't sleep thinking about all things coming up*
Raise your hand if you've used at least one of these in the past week 🙋🏻♀
I decided my therapist wasn't a good fit for me, then ghosted her when she sent me new therapist recommendations and tried to see how I was doing. I've also put off looking for a new therapist for way more months than I should've. So no, I don't think you can finish therapy, but you can definitely quit. If I'm wrong, and someone out there really has done the impossible, please share your success story. I need some hope.
Ductape can fix almost anything, but it can't fix my very fragile relationship with good mental health
Haha I am at the bottom right now and I'm f**k8ng pissed I was doing so well for like a while and here j am
Parents: not divorced but fighting 24/7. Depression: yup, still there. Childhood trauma: got the trauma, still got some childhood left to go.
I get horribly sick from my anxiety. I've thrown up on 4 separate dates. Its not fun
Me to my mom. I don't eat lunch at school, even if I have food I like. "Look mom, I got a crappy diet soda from the vending machine!" I only drank 2 sips, but it's a step up from nothing
Me; not remembering anything and not being able to feel sadness; childhood trauma
To everyone who needs to hear: when you're getting older it gets a bit easier. Not because your anxiety and depression goes away, but because you'll care less what other people think.
What really helps it's learning that everyone else is so wrapped up with their own problems that nobody is thinking about you at all, really helps. Like assuming that people's lives are consumed with negative judgmental thoughts of you is really main character syndrome.
