Prednisone: It’s the drug we love to hate. It can work wonders towards treating inflammation and suppressing the immune system, but the side effects can be challenging, to say the least. Mood swings, sleep problems, an increased appetite, and “moon face” are among the most common — but if you’ve experienced any of these, know there are many other chronic warriors who understand exactly how you feel.

Finding the humor in the frustrations of prednisone won’t necessarily treat your symptoms, but for many in our community, it can make them easier to deal with. We found 16 memes that might make you laugh if you’ve ever been on prednisone.
