 The mental health challenges were 2000s cartoon characters. Anxiety is so Timmy Turner. With that bullying babysitter, no wonder Timmy is a walking embodiment of the unease intention that characterizes anxiety. Also, his wishes, impulsive attempts to solve his problems, turn his life into a vicious cycle of creating more problems than they solve, and we won't even get into this fear of failure. Squidward is basically depression personified. Squid sonified? Octa sonified? Hopelessness? Check. Lack of enthusiasm for hobbies? Check. Social withdrawal and then irritability when someone, cough, Patrick and Spongebob? Cough. Try to break the isolation? Yeah. ADHD is stitch. Energetic and impulsive. Our favorite alien represents the difficulties with attention and accomplishing tasks that are typified by ADHD, but he learns the superpower of channeling that energy into doing some great things. If any of these things sound or feel familiar and you're struggling, don't hesitate to reach out for support. There is no shame.
