Welcome to General Memes
Memes for the masses, chuckles for the chosen.
Rule 1: Be Civil, Not Cruel
We’re here for laughs, not fights.
- No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
- No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
- Keep it light — argue in the comments, not with insults
Rule 2: No Forbidden Formats
Not every image deserves immortality on the memmlefield. That means:
- No spam or scams
- No porn or sexually explicit content
- No illegal content (seriously, don’t ruin the fun)
- NSFW memes must be properly tagged
If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can take care of it.
Otherwise consider this your call to duty. Get posting or laughing. Up to you

Same, but for me there are certain types of people and smells that put me extremely on edge for no logical reason. Any loud noise or actual aggressive language puts me into fight-or-flight mode. I don't hyperventilate, but I start to babble, and I have a very hard time with people showing interest in me romantically or even just touching me.
Same. Really hindered me in life.
I try not to be too angry at myself.
I do my best.
I'm a bit beyond the point of beating myself up or lashing out. Currently living alone for the first time in my life (I'm not a young man mind you) and each day is a bit of discovery and introspection.
I have bad days and bad habits but therapy and aweness helps keep things in perspective. It's hard to explain to people the point I'm at. I don't consider myself depressed. I'd say I'm re-discovering myself while also trying not to fall into the full escape of solitude.
It's generally nice, though really 'healing' I think, requires some discomfort. So no, not beating myself up. Not angry these days. I'm just trying to be a brave little guy when I need to be.
best of luck on your journey too.
Sounds like you're on the right track. Best of luck to you too.
