Mental Disorders Portrayed by Spongebob 

Doctors have diagnosed so many people with “depression” that the word had lost its meaning The reason for this is because most Americans have depression to some extent.

the better representation for OCD would be that episode where squid ward keeps running back to the krusty krab while spongebob keeps saying "have you finished those errands"

0:29 honestly this is the most accurate portrayal of depression ive seen

Anyone else feel that Squidward is the epitome of depression

2:01 can we appreciate the fact that Spongebob shows organs at all details with no hesitation?

Stress, Anxiety, and Depression is accurate af 😩

the anorexia one is so accurate

0:18 i have anxiety and this is Very relatable

As a musician the depression one hit harder than I thought it would.

1:51 A good reason not to eat at the chum bucket

The ocd one is so accurate-

It surprised me that they show a decaying corpse in spongebob 1:56

OCD should’ve been Squid’s Day Off

The depression one could not be anymore accurate

A great one for schizophrenia would’ve been Mrs Puff in the padded room “made of SPONGE!”

finally someone who doesnt think ocd is just 'i want to keep everything clean'. i dont have ocd but i get mad when people generalize it as just keeping organized and clean. its so much worse than that. thank you for doing proper research.

I didn’t know cannibalism was a mental health disorder. Not even my health teacher told me that.

the scene where plankton is roasting 3 generations in a row could have been hypomania

The mania one is completely accurate... so many bad things going on around you, but you're just happy and carefree as can be... I have ADHD and bipolar, so I can relate. 😔

OCD triggers portrayed by Spongebob "Even if it takes... FOREVER!"(*Shock*)

0:10 and 0:20 represents many high school and college seniors

The way the conch shell said no at 1:41 🤣

Crazy Anxiety, phobias.

cannibalism isn’t a mental disorder, we’re just hungry.

The depression one is me. Keep getting more and more sad.

Cannibalism isn't disorder it's an diet

The anxiety one is so accurate, like when your nervous or worried for no apparent reason whatsoever

The OCD one is so accurate

I love Spongebob so much.

the depression one is so accurate

The depression one was just _way too real._

Squidward: WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!!

An alternative representation of depression would be the scene from Are You Happy Now where Squidward says “I can’t seem to get happy.” and throws a rope.

The two disorders I’m on: ANXIETY 😥 & PANIC DISORDER

The depression one should have the I can’t seem to get happy

0:24 that is so me, I have from Insomnia!

OCD was fair enough I suppose. Sneaking around, bargaining with yourself, trying to ignore the urges

there was an entire episode where spongebob has schizophrenia once

As someone who had insomnia in college, that clip spoke out to me. I used to have so much trouble sleeping at night that I would go to the kitchen at 4am to make myself spaghetti and watch tv until the sun came up.

squidwards is the symbols depression

0:24 as an insomniac a can say this is horrifyingly accurate

Memes or no memes this is very educational

As someone with OCD, I can confirm how true this is

i am currently overcoming an ed and this helped me thank you

Any scene with spongebob can be ADHD really, cuz it comes in so many ways lol I’d relate more to the extremely hyperactive moments like anytime spongebob jumps a ton, cuz I do that sometimes.

The OCD is so true. I have OCD and it’s accurate to this. 1:12

You should’ve put Inspongeiac as Insomnia so that’s way more accurate…

I know you said to take this with a grain of salt, so I'm more saying this to educate the viewers, because most have a twisted perception of OCD. The "need for cleanliness and perfection" demonstrated in 1:12 is a symptom that's actually more of a resemblance to Autism Spectrum Disorder. A good representation of OCD would be if Spongebob thought "If I don't remove that loose thread, my entire family will die." (Also, Stress and Cannibalism are not actual mental disorders. Even Amnesia is more of a neurological condition than mental.)

cannibalism isn't a bug it's a feature it opens options for nutrition

1:12 as someone with ocd I can confirm this is accurate

My teacher made us watch this to learn each mental disorder.

A+ intro

Okay, A common misconception about OCD is that it is about things being perfect, or clean, but in reality it is a disorder that causes a person to have excessive, unwanted, intrusive thoughts that make them feel the need to “neutralize” them in order to continue on with their life. An example would be, a person would have intrusive thoughts about germs or getting sick, and in order to make the thought go away, they would excessively sanitize all the surfaces in their house until they feel satisfied. Neutralizing behaviors do not make the intrusive thoughts go away in the long run, and people with OCD need to do intensive exposure therapy. (Exposing them to the intrusive thought to prove to themselves that there is no threat) in order to recover from the disorder.

I wonder if this show has a good representation of Dissociative identity disorder, as someone who suffers from it, itd be interesting to see how a childhood cartoon I lived on could show it.

That's a good video Btw depression is an accurate thing

The OCD one was too real 😅

I have asperger and tourette

I've been think myself I have Stress Phobia Anxiety Depression Edit: and Panic disorder

unrelated to the topic of the video but with that magic conch episode, the zoom shown in this video has an obvious animation error where its spongebobs hand even though squidward was holding the conch. genuinely have no idea how the spongebob team didnt catch that.

Me: has everything

Actually that was not caniblism because squidward is an octipus but that lady was a fish

For OCD, you should’ve put the scene where Spongebob was sorting out pencils at Boating School

Underrated

I have ocd and this is so true!

I have Phobias and Anxiety,its accurate :0

insomnia is accurate :D

Schizophrenia should have been the one with the old man at the nursing home saying too loud.

mania so accurate 💀💀💀

Squidward’s depression gets to me!

1:16 as a autistic, ADHD, and OCD guy this is kinda accurate although I only have a small percentage of OCD but however I do have “bad” ADHD tho :)

The anxiety one hit hard (I have anxiety) ☹

0:25 literally me lol

1:49 what episode name is that from?

Stress and Anxiety for me :'v Ah, and phobia for insects.

No matter who you voted for, we can all agree this video pretty much describes Election Night cov erage

I have Insomnia, ADHD, and Minor Autism which I don’t think makes me weird. It just means I am different

I have OCD . . .

What did I get myself into?? I have special needs and hearing aids and And I have hearing loss in my left ear and I’m developmentally delayed which means that I learned slower than the rest of the kids my age don’t judge me I’m just the same as you but I learn differently at school and at home way I’m on 17 years old and pretty much SpongeBob is my favourite cartoon besides Beyblade g revolution this is the funniest thing ever I swear I’m laughing so hard

I have severe depression ive related to squidward since i was 5

The Stress one was accurate!!!

Should have used the Cuddle E Hugs episode for Schizophrenia too

I suffer from *furry* :(

SpongeBob I thought had ADHD

0:30 would be insanity

Thanks to Reigarw Comparisons once again for helping me with some of this list. Here is his channel: ru-vid.com

i have ocd and this is true

Me before reading desc : What the heck is wrong with you?! Me after reading desc : oh. Never mind.

I know I shouldn't be laughing at the anorexia one but...

Fun fact: SpongeBob has a disorder himself

How is stress a disorder? Every has stress.

I have a question does maladaptive daydreaming count as a disorder-

Don’t forget that insomnia too

Mhm. Amnesia is now a mental disorder 👍

Well, they got the depression one right, hehehe (sigh) 😔

1:02

wow 17k views .o.

When you realize ADHD exists:

I have insomnia and the insomnia one is acurate

0:29 me in math class

No bipolar disorder?
