Share a book, movie, song, or other media that has had a positive impact on your mental health this year.

I don’t know what I would’ve done without They Might Be Giants this year.

While I’d always been a casual fan of this alt-rock duo, I decided to do a deep dive into their discography this year, and I am so glad I did. From “Doctor Worm” to “Put Your Hand Inside the Puppet,” TMBG has been with me through every up and down this year (and this has been a rollercoaster of a year for sure). When I’m having an especially hard depression day, I know I can sing along to “Birdhouse in Your Soul” and feel a weight lifted off my shoulders, even if it’s only for five minutes. I can’t begin to count the number of times turning on my go-to TMBG playlist helped me take care of personal hygiene tasks. (Fun fact: “John Lee Supertaster” is exactly two minutes long, so it’s the perfect song to brush your teeth to!)

✨ I would love to hear from you: What books, movies, musical artists, songs, shows, or other media have helped your mental health this year?
