Like many of my fellow Gen Zers, I learned all about mental illness on the internet. Everything I learned about depression, anxiety, and suicidality was on Tumblr dot com during the cursed year of 2012. I should've known from the second I set my eyes on a Superwholockian blog that this was a platform populated by a bunch of mentally ill people, but I learned that fact soon enough. In hindsight, it boggles my mind that I was constantly looking at graphic accounts dedicated to posting the most upsetting, depressing posts about mental illness and self-harm during my middle school years. I really hope that there isn't an equivalent to 2012 Tumblr on TikTok right now, but honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if there was.

While posting too much about mental illness can be harmful, sometimes it can feel cathartic. If you aren't feeling great and want to momentarily latch onto some relatable memes that articulate how you feel, these mental illness memes might make you feel less alone.
