mental illness

Everybody has bad days sometimes, some worse than others. If you're going through a tough time right now, it's important that you reach out and talk to someone, but first and foremost we can only hope that these relatable memes will at least help you feel a little more understood!

Oh god, it's here. Sluggishness and fatigue. Difficulty focusing. Oversleeping. Fluctuations in weight. Losing interest in activities you once enjoyed. Constant darkness. Longing for the sun. Yes, we're talking about seasonal depression. People who live farther up in the northern hemisphere are more impacted by the effects of the approaching winter solstice (lucky you, Mexico), but that doesn't mean you won't be able to relate to these memes if you live in Florida. I'm sure Floridians understand regular depression quite well. 

Whether you're feeling S.A.D. because you miss the sun, or you need something entertaining to distract you from the normal depression, these are the memes for you. 

The internet, and especially memes, have done wonders for demystifying and destigmatizing mental health issues, especially depression. While many people see memes as a frivolous or purely comedic outlet, the truth is that they both clue people in to the true nature of the illness, and remind those who suffer that they're anything but alone. Here are some memes that do just that.

It's officially fall and the days are getting shorter. As we brace ourselves for seasonal depression, it's time to give a shout out to our non-seasonal neuroses. You know, the "regular" depression, our anxiety, feelings of worthlessness. Our crippling lack of motivation, and our weakness against procrastination. Things might be about to get worse, but at least we can pat ourselves on the back for our consistency.

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!

We all get a little down sometimes, and that's okay. What isn't okay, however, is when you find yourself feeling a little down for weeks or months at a time. At that point it's important to seek out help. We encourage it, but in the mean time we hope these memes can comfort you at least a little bit.

We're all dealing with a lot of sh*t right now, some more than others. We can't act as your therapist, but we can bring you some relatable content. So while you try to find an actual licensed mental health professional, please take these memes as our offering to you during these trying times.
