Anyone else cope with their mental health by joking about it?

My childhood was so absurd I just can’t be serious about it.

I take so many meds when my pharmacist asked me why I take two meds that do the same thing I told him that “that’s just how much my brain is ~~f***ed ~~ messed up”. He didn’t appreciate it.

my spouse tells me that people usually don’t like it when you do that and that’s why I have trouble making friends.

Can anyone relate?

    I’m able to tell my partner is depressed when she starts cracking jokes left and right. It’s the best indicator I have to see she’s having a rough day.
