I haven’t had a panic attack for like 20 years, but oh… the various rages. I think they’re similar in a weird way because of the outpouring of emotion involved.

Funny things is, as you know, you are describing EVERYONE. But, not everyone is experiencing the same level of ADHD, Fatigue and so on. Some are the same as others but some are waaaaaasasay more or less than others. Stop thinking you're feeling it more. You're not.

I'm not sure what worries me most: 1. The ridiculously accurate description of my personality, or 2. That so many of you feel the same. The fact that I'm no longer lonely feels comforting though.

It all started with two young women sharing funny memes on Instagram. Now, with a whopping 8.2 million followers, Lola Tash and Nicole Argiris can easily be called internet meme queens. Although the name of the account is about a therapist saying something, it is mostly about young folks sharing anxious thoughts and, well... being a bit of a mess.

Lola and Nicole told Cosmopolitan magazine that the account is “one of the fastest-growing aggregate Instagram accounts in history, climbing to 500,000 followers in its first six months and now surpassing 2 million since they started it in July 2015." The account is also one of the biggest meme places on the internet and has been run anonymously up until now.

Both women attend therapy due to some personal issues. Lola says: "Every time I would talk to Nicole, I was like, ‘My therapist said this,’ and she’d say, "No, I said that.' And I'm like, ‘Well, you are basically my therapist, so.'"

Thus the inspiration for the "My Therapist Says" Instagram account was born. It reflects their daily lives, struggles and complaints they shared with each other and now do with the internet. "I’m not sure I see memes about mental health issues … or anything that really reflects what I, as a therapist, say to my clients,” says Dr. Jaclyn Cravens-Pickens, a licensed marriage and family therapy associate who does not know Lola or Nicole, while scrolling through the account.

Although Lola and Nicole wouldn't share how much money they've made from the account, they get sponsorships, wrote several books and now are starting a self-produced podcast. Cosmopolitan wrote that, "They reinvest most of their meme income into podcast production, they say, and have donated some of it to mental health and animal charities."

The account is a huge success; in fact, it will be made into a whole TV series. The two founders, along with Kenan Thompson and John Ryan Jr., will be executive producers of the show. Kenan told Glamour magazine: "Lola and Nicole have a unique and hilarious perspective that has resonated with people all over the world. I'm so excited to welcome our funny sisters to the AFA fam!"

John Ryan Jr said: "Kenan and I were big fans and followers of My Therapist Says before even meeting Lola. My Therapist Says are the pop culture tastemakers and the class clowns that we all need right now. We look forward to bringing this incredible and influential brand to television audiences."
