We all know that we have to take proper care of our physical health. However, how many of us take the time and put in the effort to do the same for our mental health? Many people around the world struggle with mental health issues. But instead of branding it as a taboo topic, it should be destigmatized as much as possible.

Our team is featuring some of the most relatable ‘Why Is My Brain Like This’ memes, as shared by Imgur user ‘octoberlegend.’ They deal with everything from therapy and anxiety to the little intrusive thoughts that we all get. Scroll down to check them out.

Bored Panda wanted to get to grips with how therapists build trust with their clients to get them to open up, so we reached out to Psychologist Miglė Vainalavičiūtė from Health Optimizing Vilnius. She was happy to walk us through the process. You’ll find the insights she shared with us below.

    Before we had tabs, we'd bookmark sites we were sure we'd go back and read, and then shove that bookmark into a folder full of other bookmarks to sites we were sure we'd go back and read. I think my record was about 100 links in that folder before I cleaned it out.

    Somehow I think that would eventually just lead back to the first therapist. A giant Ouroboros of mental health issues!

    I hate those. Unless I'm like, really, REALLY super-low on gas, I'll try to find the next gas station and hope it demands no interaction with other people.

    I registered for therapy but they send the registration early in the morning. I have sleep problems. I can't fall asleep, only after 04.00 early in the morning. If you don't take the appointment instantly, you get the notification "because you didn't take it in time an other patient got it. Next time you should be more quick." So f*ck them.
