When you’re in that miserable state of mind, sometimes a single meme can put a smile on your face. Luckily, one Austin, Texas-based non-profit community outreach organization is notorious for making hilarious memes out of relatable, often not too bright moments of our lives. So welcome to the safe place to talk about hard things, quoting our beloved Dr. Phil.

Known as “A Safe Place Inside your Head,” this Instagram page is “meeting people where they are at” and making them feel less lonely. It covers anything from mood swings and depression to social anxiety and past trauma, which no one is probably immune to. Today, we selected some of the funniest and, for that matter, most soul-soothing memes because laughter is the best medicine, even if you don’t feel like taking it.

And please know that no matter what you or your loved one is facing right now, you deserve to be connected to help. Browse here to connect to resources and here for a list of suicide hotlines available in your country.

I'm with you on the first. But making jokes about the racists, sexists and homophobes themselves, helps spread awareness and build strength against it. And lets us all laugh at them.

Too bad - that's exactly the problem. There should be no such thing as censoring humour. Laughing about something (in a clever satiric way of course - nobody needs bad jokes, neither about racisms nor puppies...) is the best way to make people think about something !

I agrer it is good to get people thinking. BUT, who exactly is doing the censoring? In the US, you can make all the jokes you want about any topic you want. However, you are not entitled to be paid for them, you are not entitled to a platform and if you cross a line with the wrong crowd you may get whooped. Bunch of people in US claiming censorship just ain't that funny

Agree, but within limits. Free speech can only go as far as it doesn't impede on the personal safety and freedom of individuals. So if someone would use their free speech and 'jokes' to incite a violence-prepared group into going to someone else's house and set it on fire, that's clearly not what free speech was for.

I was a child in the 60s and this filthy talk was so common and they did not care who was around. I went to a job interview at 16yrs and the owner of the car dealership asked me if I liked sex and how I liked it. He was a prominent city board member at the time and everyone thought he was the greatest. Sick bastard yes I was shocked, stood up, and left.

Some lines are just there to not cross them. This kind of jokes are only based in trying to make fun of situations that are really awful. I'd like to think this is done as a self protection against pain, but the damage they do always is bigger than the supposed good.

Like Most Of Us, I Grew Up In A Very Dysfunctional Family. Both My Parents Died In My Early 40’s And I Absolutely Don’t Feel Any Grief From Either Of Their Deaths.
what I Do Feel Grief Is From The Trauma I Had To Survive As A Child From Absentee Parents That Provided Barely Any Love Or Support. I Also Feel Grief For The Mental Health Issues That Developed In My Childhood That I Carry Into Today.
you Don’t Have To Love Your Family If You Don’t Want To. They Should Be Accountable And Not Be Given Grace Just Because They Are Blood. Don’t Feel Bad If You Walk Away From A Family Relationship To Preserve Your Mental Health.
may Is National Mental Health Month, So Be Kind To Your Mind And Don’t Take Any Bullshit From Anyone. - @therealjoirizarry

• 😩i Don't Think A Lot Of People Know How Incredibly Hard It Is For People With Anxiety To Do Some Things That Are Incredibly Normal And Effortless For Others. •
•
•
😬in My Worst Of My Social Anxiety Days I Struggled To Do So Many Things🤦🏼‍♀️. For Example: God Forbid I Forgot To Grab A Fork After Sitting Down At The Food Court With My Food. I Would Panic, Feel Instant Nervousness Just At The Thought Of Having To Get Back Up And Go And Ask For A Fork Or Even Simply Just Grab One Off The Counter.

😞this Is An Example Of One Of The Many Roadblocks That Someone With Anxiety May Face. We Overthink And Overanalyze Every Step And It's Possible Numerous Outcomes. It Is Exhausting To Say The Least.

That's why I love the internet. You can ask the stupidest or most inappropriate questions and it's more than likely that : 1- someone has already asked the same question or 2- someone will gladly give you an answer. At the same time there will always be that someone who will bash you for anything you might say or do (too ugly, too pretty, too fat, too skinny, etc).

To find out more about the internet’s beloved project A Safe Place Inside your Head, which currently has 773k followers on Instagram, we reached out to the creators behind it. We spoke with Tanner Hamilton, the CEO at A Safe Place Inside Your Head, who said that he and his mom Joanne “created this non profit in honor of my brother who passed away from suicide.”

Hamilton added that “We wanted to raise awareness around his death and for his memory to live on through helping others.” He is the original founder of the non-profit and brought Joanne into the project later on.

When asked how the creator of A Safe Place Inside Your Head would best describe the audience who follows their page, Tanner said: “it is a group of like-minded people who want a community where they do not feel alone in their thoughts. We talk about the ugly side of mental health in a relatable way.”

The success of A Safe Place Inside Your Head has to do with relatable memes that hit close to home for many people browsing online. “We make some, we get some from the internet and meme publishers who want to support the cause,” Tanner said when asked how they select content to share on the page, “It is a group effort,” he added.

I’m Not Even A Kid And I Want This Mental Health Day Off 🤟🏽
kids Should Be Encouraged To Express Their Emotions, Good Or Bad, And Parents Should Honor Those Feelings As Real. One Of My Sons Recently Confessed To Me That All Those Stomach Aches He Went To The Nurses Office At School With When He Was A Kid Was Actually Anxiety But He Didn’t Know How To Name It. Obviously I Feel Like A Failure As A Parent For Not Giving Him A Voice With His Real Emotions, Until He Was Older.

I Like This Idea So Much More Than Being Told That Toxic People Are Attracted To Empaths. It Literally Puts The Blame On Me For Attracting Them.
hard Facts Is The Empath In Me Keeps Them Around. Because The Broken Should Help The Broken, Right? No… We Shouldn’t, At The Expense Of Healing Ourselves. We Can’t Heal Toxicity In Others. Try To Recognize It And Learn To Walk Away.
don’t Let The Good In You Be Taken For Granted. And Work On Fixing Yourself First Before You Try To Fix Others. You Deserve The Love 💗 You Give To Everyone Else. - @therealjoirizarry

One time when I was at my lowest I was driving around and contemplating where to park and potentially take my own life. An older gentleman was walking down the back road I was on with his wife and he turned and smiled at me with the most genuine smile I'd seen. His wife turned and did the same and they both waved. That couple saved my life by just showing me a moment of genuine humanity by smiling. Guilt was what drove me to want to die. This post made me remember this.

True. Never really thought about that. Was relentlessly bullied as a child and teachers/parents always ignored and brushed under the carpet. I always bury problems deep now, work through in my own space and never tell anyone.

Posted This To My Personal Instagram Cause I’m Suffering From A Lot Of Self Hate/Loathing Today But This Account Is Like A Diary To Me So I’m Just Gunna Rant A Second. My Potential Relationships Effect My Mental Health So Much. Everyone Is Deserving Of Love, Even If Us Ourselves Don’t Think So. I Can Be So Hard On Myself. I Beat Myself Up Constantly. Lately I’ve Had Thoughts Of “Am I Good Enough”, “Am I Ugly/Not Good Looking”. Things Cross My Mind That Are So Negative But I Have To Put The Love Into Myself That I Want From Others. This Is Me Rambling Because I Am Struggling Today, I Hope Everyone Has Had A Good Day. - @tanner_hamilton22

I Realized Tonight I’m Tapped Out From 2021. Like Physically, Mental, Socially.
my Battery Can’t Even Be Jumpstarted At This Point.
from The Level Of One, Barely Burnt Out, To Burnt Out Beyond Belief, Where You At?

Yeah I realized I burnt out at the beginning of the year but I'm still going and (sort of) fine!

I Don’t Think The Feeling Can Be Conveyed Any Clearer That What
@life_after_agoraphobia Says Down Below 👇🏼 …. Sensory Overload Makes My Brain Feel Like It’s On Fire And I’m About To Combust. It Literally Physically Hurts.
🗣 @life_after_agoraphobia
why Does This Make So Much Sense To Me. Like How Do You Explain (Without Sounding Like An Asshole) That Even The Objects Around Me Are Too Loud!!!! It’s Like Someone Has Turned The Volume Up On Everything, So Much So That Even Movement Begins To Annoy Me. I Hate Sensory Overload So Much. I Hate The Fact That I Come Across Like A Grumpy Bitch When It’s Happening. It’s Super Frustrating. Who’s With Me? ♥️
i’m With You …. @therealjoirizarry

My son says "Wait! I'm in the blender......" Thats his way of saying full stop and he will let us know when he feels OK to continue.

Tw: Suicide
this May Not Resonate With Everyone But With My Mental Health Fluctuations, I Sometimes Find Myself Talking To Myself Like This. Depression Is A Beast, And It’s Been One I’ve Been Trying To Tackle For A While. I Feel Alone In This, Does Anyone Have Any Similar Thoughts? - @tanner_hamilton22

Posted This Before But I Feel It Tonight. Making Small Talk Is So Hard For Me, I Feel Strongly It Always Ends In The Conversation Dying And My Anxiety Has Me Wondering If I Said Something Wrong. I’ve Been Working On Communication But I Can Only Give So Much So I’ve Decided To Tell People As Nicely As I Can “We Don’t Have To Make Small Talk, I Promise I Won’t Find It Rude If The Conversation Ends Here. We Don’t Have To Do This”. It’s Freed Up A Lot Of Time For Me To Work On My Mental Health But I Had A Ton Of Anxiety Getting To The Point Where I Could Say The Above Statement. What Are Your Thoughts? - @tanner_hamilton22

Our generation is the one that's dealing with wake up calls for everything that has been wrong. We're fed up with toxic people, toxic masculinity, homophobia, gender discrimination, glass ceilings. I think it's a hard time to live but it's a historic time to watch and enjoy.

Anyone Else Ever Feel This Way? I Get Super Anxious When Someone Says “Can I Talk To You About Something, It Will Have To Be Later Though”….like Why Not Now Lol. I Have Bad Anxiety And Think The Worst When I’m Awaiting Conversations….most Of The Time It’s Not Even Bad. Why Does My Brain Work Like This??? - @tanner_hamilton22

im Not Sure If The Numbers Are Legit, But I Can Tell You From Personal Experience That My Son Kenny, That Died From Suicide 11 Years Ago Couldn’t Get Help, It Was Unavailable.
today We Are His Voice That Was Never Heard. If You’re Suffering Please Reach Out To Someone, A Friend, A Family Member, A Suicide Hotline Or Even Us, Our Dm’s Are Open. We Aren’t Professional Therapists But We Will Listen When You Speak.
end The Stigma. Be Heard. We’re Listening. -Joanne

This is what happens when you grow up being told to suppress your emotions and never to ask for help or let on that you're hurting because that's "weak". It's so bloody sad. :(

How Did Everyone Sleep? To Be Honest, When I Have Anxiety And Can’t Sleep I Feel Like I Experience A Bit Of Mania The Next Day. Like That On Top Of The World I Got This Feeling, All Until I Get Home At Night And I Realize How Exhausted I Am And How I Should Really Try To Fix My Sleep Schedule. I Should Put My Phone Down When I Try To Go To Bed. 🤪 - @tanner_hamilton22
