If there’s one universal language that can speak to any emotion or situation, it’s the digital phenomenon we call the meme. These tightly-packaged chunks of information allow us to share a laugh, shed a tear, and generally feel less alone in this vast world. They are a great teacher of how life is never a black and white journey — but rather a bittersweet adventure that inspires the painfully spot-on and absurdly funny jokes we all appreciate.
Today, we’re diving deep into these internet tidbits that mess with our psyches and play with feelings on opposite spectrums. So allow us to introduce you to the 'Mad Sad Not Good' Instagram account. This social media project dedicated to "bringing you the saddest memes in town" is bound to crack a smile and leave you feeling pretty blue all at the same time.
Below, we wrapped up a collection of posts proving that sadness is a perfectly natural part of life that also deserves to be put in the spotlight. So continue scrolling to check them out, and don't miss the chat we had about sadness with clinical psychologist Joshua Klapow, Ph.D. Then be sure to upvote the memes you could easily relate to, and let us know what you think in the comments!

Then he'd stop mid sentence, forget what he was talking about, then starts over from the beginning. Meanwhile I'm curled up on the couch thinking that every time someone laughed, they were laughing at me for being silent. And then we'd get waffle house at 3:30 am.

But the 'Mad Sad Not Good' is here to shed light on our emotional side and make our little sad selves feel understood. Although the account still seems to be growing, as it has amassed over 17k followers on the platform, it’s truly a refreshing outlet that allows us to experience sadness, and even helps to laugh it away.

DO THIS! Seriously. Also, interviewing is like dating: if you lie about yourself to close the deal, you're going to dislike the relationship. And don't get into a relationship ONLY because they're willing to have you. Job interviews should be two-way streets. You need to be asking, "is this job right for me?" And if it IS right for you, the fact that you asked questions that reveal that it is right for you will make the employer remember you and know that it's it a good fit. (Yes, I understand that sometimes you're just desperate for work.)

A pessimist thinks the world's as bad as it can possibly get. An optimist hopes the pessimist is right.
AVGucky 3 years ago
I really like this! But there's a huge difference between pessimism and depression. I wouldn't say this if only I knew that it wasn't still necessary to explain it. Don't mean you in person. But sadly, still too many people think that people can cure depression all by themselves if only they'd "just look at things more positively" or anything similar. It's not "just thinking too much", it's not sadness, it's not cured by just laughing a bit more or going out more. It's not making anything better to get told that "some people are worse off" - the opposite. Depression is a real disease, and it's very sad that this still needs to be pointed out. Same with anxiety. I don't know how often I have to hear the advice "just gather some courage!" If it was that easy, many people would just avoid to suffer horrible panic attacks which sometimes are so bad like the breathlessness could be deadly this time.

I was in a meeting about Philanthropy as it related to the Boys & Girls Club. This young man was talking about how he was an avid activist wanting to change the opportunities for all youth as it relates to education. He said he is often approached by older politicians and leaders and asked "You appear upset. Why are you so angry about this?" He responded "Why aren't you? You should be equally angry about the state of education and the access to it."

It's the world. Look around. We are close to lose our democracy (in the US, but other countries are also not doing well),people fabricate their own truths, shoot each other and we are inches from nuclear war. Either you live under a rock or you cannot help being depressed.
Emotions have a strong influence on our daily lives and life in general. It’s easy to say that sadness feels bad, and happiness feels good, but our inner world is so much more complicated than that. So to gain more insight on the topic, we reached out to Joshua Klapow, Ph.D., a clinical psychologist, performance coach, and creator of Mental Drive. Klapow works with individuals and organizations across the globe to help them improve productivity, health, and achieve their goals.
Being the founder of a psychological well-being initiative that helps people access the best-in-class psychological tools to live healthier, more fulfilled, and successful lives, he was more than happy to share insights on the matter.

Klapow explained to Bored Panda that sadness is a universal human experience. This emotional state is often characterized by feelings of unhappiness and low mood. And although it’s simply a normal part of life, many people tend to hide their gloomy feelings. But whether it’s out of fear of coming across as melancholic, vulnerable, or simply wanting to experience our emotions in solitude, the psychologists stressed that "we can’t avoid it and it shouldn’t be avoided."
"Sadness is an emotion like any other," he added. "It is a signal that something is not what we desire." This emotional state is usually temporary and transitory, and it naturally occurs when we go through life’s inevitable ups and downs. "Sadness is not an emotion to be feared. It is an emotion to be experienced," Klapow said, adding that without sadness we’d have no comparison for what happiness is.

This is plain wrong. Those naps are "giving in" to depression. Activity and daily structure is the best way to fight depression. Activity leads to you feeling better at the end of day and tired enough to sleep. Sleep that brings actually rest, so you have more energy the next day.

While many people fear that a persistent and longer-lasting drop in their mood may turn them into pessimistic people who ruminate negatively about the past, present, and future, Klapow assured that sadness in no way has to lead to pessimism. "In fact, some of the most optimistic people experience sadness all the time," he added. "Sadness is an emotion; it is part of our experience and is a signal that we are feeling."
The clinical psychologist added that pessimistic people often are not sad: "They spend so much time seeing the negative side of life that they never move to happiness. They essentially stay neither sad nor happy, but simply in the negative."

It felt awesome!)
When we experience these complex emotions, we may feel inclined to just push through them and wait until they pass. But in some instances, Klapow said, sadness can be scary. "It can make us feel isolated or as if the emotion we are experiencing is uniquely ours."
That’s why so many people turn online to share their experiences and know they are not alone. "Seeking out others who feel the same is supportive and validating," the creator of Mental Drive noted. "As well, sometimes we want to be sad, but our own defense mechanism stands in the way. Much like looking for a sad song, when we are sad and want to fully experience the emotion, we will seek out those cues that help move it along so that we can experience and move forward."

I don't know why people glorify depression in this day of age. So many wear depression like a badge of honour. It's an illness. A shitty one. And I'm glad people are talking about it but also sad with how many people accept this as a dead end and non treatable state. You can fight depression. It's hard and requires a lot of hard work but at the end of it you're a much stronger person.
To anyone feeling sad or blue, it may feel like this emotion is beginning to dominate all aspects of your life. But Klapow wanted to remind you that you have a choice: "Do you want to dive deeper or is it time to pull out and up?" According to him, depending on the situation and what you are experiencing, this can be easier or more difficult.
"If you feel that you need to and want to experience sadness, do it. Go all in," he added. Remember that most emotional experiences last a relatively short time, and gloomy moods should fade away over time. "Think about what is making you sad, read posts, listen to music. Work through the full experience of sadness."

"If you don’t want to be in that state, then work to pull out. Surround yourself with people and cues that make you happy," Klapow added. After all, there are definitely moments when you can laugh or be comforted by your loved ones. Allow the sadness to move to the background by talking about it, crying, venting, exercising, or trying out other methods of releasing your feelings. "Sadness is an emotion. Sometimes it’s the right time, sometimes it’s not. But it is always ok to be sad," Klapow concluded.

And could be the agent's tone was nicer, too. People tend to respond to the tone no matter what they're going through. If I'm going through a hard time with something and I call in for help, if I get someone who clearly sounds like I'm the one being a nuisance to them then that starts me up wanting to defend myself. It snowballs from there. If an agent is being patient and speaking to me in a positive tone then that makes me feel reassured I can explain what the problem is and I'll be heard, and will get it fixed in no time. Sometimes I start out frustrated and angry. Not towards the agent, but the issue or the company as a whole. If an agent is capable of not allowing my bad mood affect their contentment it calms me down better than them telling me to calm down.

It was all the way back in the 90's when we started hearing about how we had to prevent crossing the 400ppm Co2 thresh hold. We surpassed it in 2011. Since then we've been told we need to do everything in our power to keep warming below 1.5c which meant cleaning up our act before 2050....well it's 2022, we're on track to hit 2.5c by 2030-35. All the climate modeling done in mid 2020 attempting to predict what weather patterns and environmental conditions would be like in 2050....we're proven correct when they all started happening THIS YEAR. Yet the thing that people seem to really be concerned with is placing blame. "It's not me! The top 100 companies are responsible for 70% of emissions! They need to fix it!" Despite the study including all of china, and attributing all the emissions from burning fossil fuels, to the companies that extract them instead of the individuals actually consuming them. So what i'm saying is, stop hyperventilating. It's like crying while your house flood

We stopped after his sixth. Now he’s much more excited & engaging when it comes to his birthday.

Yes, but I can reach out to him with serious s**t(dude I think I have a drinking problem and I need help) and he was there the next day. Then the guilty feelings start for ignoring or relationship until I needed something... f*****g anxiety, not like he was reaching out and you ignored him, you both ignored each other

Half does seem like too little. Most of my immediate family is either mentally I’ll and/or caused other family members to become mentally ill.

I just stop responding all together. If that doesnt work, I just walk away without a word. One time, the person went to my husband and started telling him the story and said, "I'll just tell you bc your wife just walked away" I felt bad for the hubby....kinda. (evil laugh)

Sorry I'm late! I was rethinking my life choices, and questioning the purpose of my existence, and realising what the world has come to, and falling into a pit of depression, and attempting to find happiness at the bottom of a wine bottle.

Years ago, worked in an old building and our floors had an elevator operator. Monday thru Thursday she would frequently say "I wish it was Friday." On Friday she would say "I wish it was five o'clock." One Monday morning when she lamented about Friday, as usual, somebody smiled and said "You realize you're wishing your life away." Her reply was "OK, I wish it was last Friday."

I guess that makes sense for 20 year old people. Just don't tell them that same exact nostalgia is only going to stick and get stronger over the next 30 years - they'll find out soon enough.

I send memes and pics from bored panda to one of my friends. She will then look at them and reply with laughing smileys. If I send her a link to a whole list of fun stuff from bored panda she will wait to look at it until she's bored on the toilet anyways. That is pretty much how our friendship is going lately. 😂

No, but I live in an apartment and sprint up the stairs at the slightest sound of any neighborly activity, so I have neighbors I've seen like... twice in the last five years. Best people I've ever known, we still never talk.

What always helps me: when I start I only have to write for 10 minutes and I'm allowed to write in a 'brainstorming' way: I just write down anything I can think of about the subject, just random thoughts about the subject, half written sentences, they don't have to be in order and they're allowed to not make any sense. This really helps to take the pressure of and get things flowing.
