Depression Comics to Laugh Through the Struggle
At Thunder Dungeon, we’ve learned the internet’s funniest creators often have a real knack for turning struggle into laughter—and no one embodies that better than Stormy Gail. Our team has followed Stormy’s depression comics for years, not just because they’re hilariously dark, but because they always sneak in a little light at the end. We’ve seen that some of the best mental health humor comes from people who truly get it.
As someone who’s weathered their share of “blue days,” I remember the first Stormy Gail comic I saw. It was a gloomy little stick figure arguing with its own brain about getting out of bed—something I’d done a hundred times. There’s something weirdly comforting about depression comics, especially when the jokes land just right. You’re laughing at the shadow, but somehow, you’re also rooting for yourself. These comics have exploded in popularity across mental health memes, relatable comics, and even self-care Twitter threads. They capture everything from dark humor to wholesome memes, making depression just a little bit less isolating.
