You’ve likely killed some valuable time scrolling through some of our meme articles. These images are instant sources of quick laughs when you need them. During the pandemic, experts saw them as a source of positive emotions.

Another 2021 study shared a similar finding, noting that memes were beneficial for people suffering from anxiety during the pandemic. These images often had a humorous take even on serious issues, adding some much-needed levity during a stressful time. 


The researchers described memes as a “therapeutic” and “beneficial coping mechanism” because of their relatability. 


“The use of humor itself may down-regulate negative and up-regulate positive emotions,” an excerpt from the study reads.

Since many people see them as a tool to find solace and humor, memes create a shared experience. Strangers online develop connections with each other. As pointed out by psychologist Dr. Mark Travers in an article for Forbes, they “foster a feeling of ‘I’m not alone in this.’”


Dr. Travers used the famous “distracted boyfriend” as an example of a relatable meme that depicts human relationship dynamics in a way that resonates with many. You’ll see it in the multitude of versions online.

In his article, Dr. Travers noted that memes are an effective way to express difficult emotions. He mentioned a 2020 study that revealed how people with depression find humor in memes that draw out their pain points and struggles. 


“The use of dark humor in memes helps individuals confront and share challenging topics in a less threatening way,” he wrote.

Dr. Travers concluded that memes can make a “surprising difference” to your day. However, he also mentioned an important caveat: memes aren’t to be solely relied on for connection and support. 


He noted that relatability and humor can “provide a momentary escape” to remind us that we “are part of a larger, supportive community.” This makes them a “timeless coping mechanism.”
