About

Babe Please See a Psychiatrist refers to a Wojak comics meme format in which Aya Asagiri attempts to persuade her partner, who acts like he is a person from another era, to see a psychiatrist, to which he responds "I know." The format is an offshoot of Babe Please Stop and was popularized after a retrowave edit went viral in May 2021.

Origin

On May 9th, 2020, iFunny^[1] user iCarnage posted a Babe Please Stop meme in which Aya Asagiri pleaded with her partner, who imagined himself a detective in '80s Miami, to visit a psychiatrist, to which he responded, "I know" (authorship unconfirmed, shown below). The post received over 50,100 smiles in four months.

Precursor

Babe Please See a Psychiatrist is an offshoot of a larger Babe Please Stop meme format. The subformat was likely spawned by a viral ironic DaBaby meme originally posted by Facebook^[2] meme page Rappers In Peculiar Places on January 15th, 2021 (shown below).

Loneliness has followed me my whole life. Everywhere. In bars, in cars, sidewalks, stores, everywhere. There's no escape. I'm God's lonely man. The days can go on with regularity over and over, one day indistinguishable from the next. A long continuous chain. Babe, please see a psychiatrist. You're not a taxi driver from 1970s NY
