About

Being Too Honest With Your Therapist refers to a series of memes about the possibility of being committed to a mental institution should one share their true thoughts and feelings with their therapist. Spawned by a viral tweet in 2018, the format, which uses variations of the catchphrase, saw a resurgence on Twitter and TikTok in 2022.
