While there’s nothing funny about struggling with your mental health, sometimes folks who live with mental illness use self-deprecating humor to share how they’re feeling in a funny and relatable way.

Sometimes humor can be used to broach a serious topic you otherwise wouldn’t know how to talk about. Sometimes, sending a relatable mental health meme to a friend can bring a smile to their face on days when it’s hard to get out of bed. Other times, seeing a funny meme can let you know you aren’t the only one feeling this way.

Whatever your situation may be, humor can definitely be a powerful coping tool. 

If you use self-deprecating humor to cope with mental illness, here’s a roundup of some memes that might make you chuckle.
