Remaining positive and able to see the bright side of the world can do wonders for your mental health, and random internet posts might help you unlock certain parts of your inner world.
"If you are the feeler, see if you can notice when emotions are arising and allow space for them. Setting aside intentional time to be without distraction can be useful. Journaling or using music or pictures may help you access your emotions," writes Noelle McWard, LCSW, the founder of Counseling Solutions, a group practice in Chicago providing psychotherapy services to individuals and couples.
"In the television series 'Shrinking,' Harrison Ford's character advises the teenager whose mother has died to play a song that evokes emotion so as to allow her time to cry." Sometimes, a tweet or a meme can be enough to spark a smile and lift your mood, too.
"While it is essential to feel your feelings, having skills to help you be regulated within them is also important," McWard adds.
Being self-regulated, according to the psychotherapist, is the ability to manage your emotions and direct your impulses toward healthy adaptations. Practices that support emotional regulation are: pausing; accepting uncertainty, self-compassion and self-care, taking committed action toward solutions, and finding community.

Pausing allows you to create space between feeling your feelings and reacting to them so that you can choose how to respond to them.
Accepting uncertainty is a hard one for us humans because it's counterintuitive to our wiring—this is especially true in times of stress. "Reminding yourself that whatever you are feeling and whatever is true right now, is only true right now, not forever can help," McWard says. "Keeping your focus on what you do know, what is certain, is also useful. Lastly, reminding yourself of whatever support or resources are available to you may help alleviate the stress of whatever is unknown."
Self-compassion and self-care. Being kind to yourself and taking care of yourself opens you up to love from others as well.
Taking committed action toward solutions. "While many people resist feeling their feelings, others get stuck in their feelings, preventing them from taking action toward living with this new reality," McWard explains. "Reflecting on what values you wish to demonstrate in the face of hardship, how you wish to show up for yourself, and who you want to be within the challenge can help guide the actions you ultimately take."
If you fear that moving forward means minimizing the magnitude and pain of what has happened, allowing someone to “get away with something,” or dishonoring the memory or love for someone you are grieving, the psychotherapist wants you to remember that your suffering punishes no one and it honors no one too.

"Don't call it babysitting, they're your kids, it's called parenting." "What's the difference?" "You don't get paid!"

And a Philly Cheesesteak sandwich and a good beer! Then some ice cream.
Finding community. "When you are facing a painful life experience, it is common to feel isolated, alone, and like no one understands. The truth is, family and friends, as much as they care, may not understand. Connecting with people who do is essential," McWard says.
That's why even silly memes can be so powerful—if we can relate, we feel heard.
"These skills are not intended to be linear steps," she adds. "Think of them like emotional states and moments that you move back and forth between, repeating as new emotions and new circumstances arise. They are fluid and flowing, not rigid. They are your guide on your journey to resilience."

A 2020 study even found that humorous memes acted as a therapeutic tool post-Covid, helping people cope with the pandemic’s severity by providing stress relief and fostering emotional well-being.

Only way I'm getting up at 5:00 AM is if my bed is on fire. And that's just long enough to put it out. Then it's back to sleep in my soggy bed.

I grow three varieties in a raised bed outside! Pineapple, spear, and mojito mint.

This is me, I really hate being late. It legit physically bothers me, which is kinda funny because I have ADHD, but I was also in the military. I have 2 younger sisters, one who was born like 2 weeks after the due date and she's going to be late for her own funeral. My other sister was born right on her due date and she's usually right on time to things. If she had to work at 9am, she shows up right at 9am. I was born 3+ months early and I prefer to be early to things. I'm sure it's just a coincidence but I find it kinda funny.

Should always call when insurance is renewed. Elephant are the only company that's seen sense and put up their prices by £5-£10, which people won't bother calling to complain about; the ones who put it up 20-30% are always going to get complaints. One question - what on earth are you insuring that costs more than £600?

Someone has completely misunderstood the meaning of the F**k It 40s. You don't care, and you don't try to be weird. You embrace your weirdness and let your weird flag fly, as long as it's before 9 pm

I've been weird since birth, but can confirm the "no effs given" aspect of it ramped up in my late 30s/early 40s (I'm 42.) I LOVE being weird now. I HOPE I weird people out. I occasionally go out of my way to be weird. But yeah, the weird train pulls into the weird station very early these days - I might not always go to BED that early, but I want to be in my house, gloriously alone, by 9pm XD

Once we ladies hit perimenopause and postmenopause, we tend to become invisible. It's hard to accept at first, but then it's so freeing 😂

Me in my 60s. Nobody likes me. My family hates me. Then my brother invites me to stay for a week. Oh God. I have to do that journey and lug my suitcase on and off trains. Why did they ask me?

Wish I had been given these sage words of wisdom decades ago. Now I just want to live in a tiny cottage in the middle of the woods far enough that I don't see people but still within range to have groceries delivered.

My attitude after finding out I have a strong food sensitivity to caseins (protein found in all dairy products and a whole mess of other stuff).. had 8 cups of Greek yogurt in the fridge that were bought and paid for. NO WAY I'm throwing all that out over some silly allergy! 😂

Some things never change. My mother said the same thing to me in like 1965 or 1966 when I was about 5 years old. That was back when Lucky Charms only had three kinds of marshmallows; hearts, moons, and clovers. And yiu can bet your sweet bippy I bought one of those bags of just the marshmallows when they started selling them. Excellent.

Bored panda should keep track of which memes they've used. And if they've used it 5 times they should retire it until the next generation comes along. Or maybe even 3 times.
