anxiety

Sometimes one of those really bad days comes along and pulls you so deep into crippling misery that even just a hint of shallow positivity makes you feel even worse. When we're in this kind of rut, we turn to bleakly relatable memes about how much life sucks. Sure, maybe these negative memes don't make us feel any better, but they sure validate our attitude toward this dismal existence. If you're in the mood to lean into the despair with memes full of dark jokes, this is the collection for you. 

It's pretty common knowledge that you can't receive help unless you really, really want it. So paying a ton of money for a therapist CAN be a total waste of money if you're not going into it with a receptive and, uh, productive mindset. These tweets represent everyone who is not quite ready to deal with their demons. Everyone who hides behind netspeak and dumb humor, when maybe, just maybe, they should be actually trying to get help. But damn, this sh*t is funny.

If you're looking for memes, you've come to the right place. This batch has a little something for everyone. Hate your life from waking til slumber? Yep, there's some humor here for you. Can't seem to get your shit together? You guessed it. We've got the memes for you. Just need something dumb to laugh at while you kill time? We've got tons of goodies for you. So sit back, relax, and try to enjoy the memes. 

2020 has not been a good year for people who already suffer from depression and anxiety. Imagine feeling worried and alone your whole life and then a literal plague hits. Not cool. Others might be experiencing dark feelings and moods swings for the first time because of the state of the world, and we totally get it. We've got a big bunch of painfully relatable memes and tweets about living with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and general misery. If you've ever been stuck in a dark, mental rut, then these memes will surely resonate with you.

Whoever said sleep is for the weak was wrong. Dead wrong. Sleep is precious. Especially when you have a hard time achieving it. Whether your insomnia is due to unreasonable caffeine intake or crippling anxiety, these memes about irregular sleep schedules will probably resonate with you. And if you can't sleep, they'll give you something to do that isn't overthinking every single aspect of your life. Win-win! 

If you're in the "Life's a bitch and then you die" camp, you're probably going to enjoy this gallery of memes. They're for the people who lean into their pessimism, and perhaps have a habit of calling it "realism." For the people who don't have the energy to pretend that everything's okay. For the people who accept the pain and use dark humor to cope. And most of all, these nuggets of moroseness are for the people who can't handle another wholesome or cutesy memes. 

Twitter hasn't really stopped memeing in the last week, but we're pretty glad that this popular joke has nothing to do with Covid-19, its vaccine, or politics. This trend uses an image of a soul living a human body, and the fun really started when @KingCrustacean shared it last Wednesday. Their caption deals with the plight of ADHD sufferers, and reads "The ADHD leaving my body when my mom tells me to "Get a planner." 

Many of the memes deal with the incredibly unhelpful advice people give people with depression, ADHD, or anxiety - but some of them instead roast peoples' own hypocrisy. Like when your atheism leaves your body when a plane flies into some turbulence - or when your car starts hydroplaning. Both themes have resulted in some Grade A twitter memes. And we've collected the very best examples right here for you.

It's easy to blame 2020 for our problems. Hell, a lot of problems people are going through have to do with this terrible year. But it's also had a way of magnifying issues that were already there, such as depression, being incredibly broke, and the joys of anxiety disorders. While we can't make these maladies disappear, we can remind you that you're not alone. With memes.

If you're miserable and you know it, look at memes. If you're miserable and you know it, look at memes. If you're miserable and you know it, and you really can't be bothered to show it, if you're miserable and you know it, look at memes. The more depressing and self-deprecating the better.

 Ever feel depressed and basically have someone tell you to "get over it?" Feel ill and have someone give you a recipe for some hokey "detox" smoothie or tea? These posts will feel pretty familiar to you. They're filled with insanely patronizing or deluded advice that certainly won't be helping anyone suffering from depression, anxiety, or general malaise. But at least they give us something to roll our eyes at. 

Lockdown has made some of us depressed, while others have anxiety that's going through the roof. Everyone deals with things a little differently, and that's okay. We just want you to know that you're not alone, so we put together this gallery of highly relatable anxiety-related memes! Check out even more here!

Want to indulge in all the humor that Twitter has to offer - without actually logging into that garbage fire of a site? We've got you covered. These tweets, which range from carefully aged to super fresh, are packed with that punchy relatable wit we so love. And you can enjoy the fun all without some weird Karen-esque political diatribe or the self-important "I don't know who needs to hear this" crap that's become so popular. You're welcome. 

Whether you're struggling to find "me time" or are just tired of life's oppressive responsibilities, it's important to step back and take some time for yourself. For some people, that means taking a hot bath and maybe watching some lighthearted television. For others, it might be a nice meal or a glass of wine. Our way of coping involves scrolling through some moderately amusing memes that have a relatable way of reminding us we're not alone. And we've put together this hefty gallery of humorous tidbits so you can try our methods yourself. 

Ever take a step back from your life and wonder if you're just doing it wrong? It's easy to feel that way when you compare yourself to your parents. Many of us deal with these feelings, especially if we've surpassed the age at which our creators decided they were ready to bring life into this godforsaken world. A new Wojak comic meme completely excels at utilizing this theme, and the results are our favorite kind of self-deprecating humor. The meme basically compares what our parents were doing (making commitments, investing in the future) with what we're doing at that age. The punchline is that in 2020, we're doing shit that's way less mature. You know, making mistakes like eating pills of the ground or infantilizing ourselves with phrases like "I'm baby." While some of these memes hit home pretty hard, a couple of them are great reminders that progress is possible. It's also important to remembe that the world was a different place when our parents were our age. It's always better to focus on one's self and the possibilities we do have.
