Ever get hangxiety? Well, let me tell you, it’s not fun. As someone who already struggles with anxiety and depression, having a couple too many drinks can absolutely ruin the following day – maybe even the next two days. When anxiety strikes, it’s hard to be your best self. You can become self-absorbed, going over all the worst case scenarios that life might throw your way. The thing is, when you obsess over hypothetical problems, it often becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. Dreading that networking meeting later? Well, if you torture yourself thinking about being socially awkward, you’re going to have some seriously bad vibes. Which definitely doesn’t make interactions feel good or natural. 

Millions of people cope with depression and anxiety each day to varying degrees of success. While I need to stop throwing ‘em back, another way to deal with your problems is by leaning into them. We like to do this in a fun way – with memes. Memes that own problems and revel in self-deprecation. It’s always good to keep a sense of humor with these things.
