- Today we're going to figure out if Spongebob is depressed, I watched every sad Spongebob Squarepants episode and came to this conclusion. Let's start a positive conversation in the comments and let me know what you think!
I think he's more of a highly sensitive person who just feels his emotions strongly.
I am highly sensitive
@@bigdookie63 do you feel your emotions strongly?
@@bigdookie63it's ok if you are sensitive
Literally me, I am Spongebob.

There was actually a really well done episode about SpongeBob mimicking people and how that lead to an identity crisis. He even sang about it. Granted it is a much later episodes but i think it’s one of the better ones.
While there are exceptions, the modern era of SpongeBob is good. As good as the so called 'golden' era? Likely not, but that's OK. We're far from the 'dark ages' anyway...
@@thepandorica1660I don’t know about that.
@thepandorica1660 SpongeBob now is terrible I don't know what your talking about.
@@shandellskeete3891 That's a nice opinion. Did a RUclipsr give it to you?
It's called Mimic Madness incase anyone was wondering
theory-aside, your editing, writing, and presentation is genuinely so high quality dude. you deserve more attention.

Hi axel
@@drewfnf yo
You're right SpongeBob gets depressed, there is no way SpongeBob being depressed. These two are different.
He's full of life and energy.
He just feels his emotions really deeply.
But in general he's happy and optimistic character and I like that he gets frustrated with himself and sad or angry and jealous sometimes because that way he seems more humane.
Even happy and optimistic people can feel sadness in some periods in their lives.
Also i remember the episode "SpongeBob you're fired" where he actually feels really depressed.
If someone has to be depressed in SpongeBob is probably Squidward (for sure) and maybe Plankton.
Great job and video by the way.
You do have a point.
Ngl the way spongebob expresses his emotions reminds me of that of a teenager and i mean that in the most un-offensive way possible😭
He may not act like depressed, but it's just stupid to say "gets depressed", nobody gets depressed like that. Most of the depressed people don't like to be seem like that and try to hide it from the people, I do it myself, but he can be a depressed guy and you would never know, spongebob is probably just too strong to hold all this shit alone and still keep walking on
He's definitely insecure and takes things to heart, when he ran away after his friends belittled him, he even "changed" himself to be "normal" because of Squidward
Exactly what I thought
I think that on the outside he says he’s fine, but on the inside he’s not fine, like he’s hiding his true emotions.
Corrected it because it sounded terrible.
I like to think he’s depressed fighting it with his happiness. There is a whole episode based around him being sad.
@@cyndlehick9777nah he’s a happy little guy
*I’m fi* ve nights at Freddy’s
if it is how spongebob is, honestly relatable
I think this leads on to after squidward kills himself in the banned episode of spongebob, then when spongebob realized that he died, nickelodeon replaced him with another Squidward, knowing it's not the same making him feel depressed trust me go watch it.
Whether or not this might be true, I totally understand on why he would be depressed. He works at a fast-food place where his boss sees him as cheap labor and his co-worker wants to avoid him all the time (sometimes it's justified though). He constantly gets mocked and humilated by the citizens in his town, who can be worse than Squidward imo. Heck, there's an episode where his OWN FRIENDS abandon him to celebrate a holiday about hating him so much.
Spongebob really loves that job though, but bikini bottom residents definitely are rude assholes
Bikini bottom residents be ruthless for no reason 😭😭😭
@@idriveastationwagon1534 it's based off litteraly twitter
@@spiderfrider64nawhh not that thing again they're so rude lioe fr
@@spiderfrider64proof?
The fact that:
1) he sees a fast food place as the Pinnacle of culinary achievement (see his establishing pilot, Help Wanted)
2) he has a habit of obsessing over something the instant he thinks of it
3) his constantly being portrayed as optimistic in the face of failure outside of the pickles incident and...
4) his regularly shown love pf jellyfish
All tell me he's more hyperfixated than depressed. He even caves to peer pressure on occasion when it comes to being cool, outside of the Pretty Patties incident (where he proves Krabs and Squidward wrong about the concept, but does gove ot over to Krabs a day before everyone finds out it dyes THEM too).
Given that he's still referred to as a kid in the first SpongeBob movie (and ends up owning it at the end), this doesn't seem too out of place to me. He's probably 18 or 19 at the oldest (physically speaking) when the series takes place.
Course, it's also possible he may just be on the extreme end of the autism spectrum, much like my older brother.
Edit: fixed typo
Yeah!! I've always thought he was autistic, just like me!! ^^
isnt he like, 37?
@@SnowPaw404 I'm not sure. I think that's specifically in the movie, but then again it's not like the lifespan of Bikini Bottom's residents are 1:1 with humans. Hence why I specified "physically" when I mentioned his age.
yes. in reality, spongebob is an immortal being that cannot die@@lordnul1708
I believe SpongeBob at least in the movie (supposed ending of the series before Nick wanted more) Is about 31-35 years old. He's probably "college age" at the start of the series. Basically he's a adult with a child-like mind, either seeing the wonder and comfort in it, or it's just how he thinks... or really just both ways I feel. He could be on the spectrum.
I kinda wish you mentioned the Whobob Whatpants episode.
I honestly hated that episode, because of how it starts. He starts out happy and cheerful, but then, out of nowhere, everybody turns on him for destroying things (not intentionally). Gary, Patrick, Mr. Krabs, even Sandy. They all called him Idiot Boy. (Squidward did too, but that wouldn't surprise anyone)
He took it to heart and it caused him to run away. I'm not sure if you can link that to depression or not.
This episode put me in SpongeBob's shoes. It made me feel like I was at home and spending time with my parents. They react in the same way as Sandy, Gary and Mr. Krabs in this episode. I don't think this episode is necessarily bad, but it is a representation of how toxic people take you to rock bottom and end up making you abandon your old life and start a new one. Sometimes starting a new life means ending the old one. If you know what i mean.
The happiest people in the world can also be the saddest people ever.
For example, Robin Williams :(.
@@suspiciousstar7547 Robin Williams? What do you mean?
He had Parkinson’s disease and he took his own life.
@@NightmareScarecrowhe was a comedian making people laugh and be entertained but in the end he committed suicide by hanging it was very tragic like everyone else that dies that way.. :/
Smiling depression and faking emotions are extremely deceptive. Not to mention that depressed people _can_ be happy. Happiness and depression are not mutually exclusive, actually.
Spongebob: Denial
Mr. Krabs: Anger
Plankton: Bargaining
Squidward: Depression
Patrick: Acceptance
I guess SpongeBob and Squidward aren't so different when dealing with psychological struggles everyday
how’s nobody noticed you??
@@SeymoursHam bugs bunny bouncing ballsack burger
We should be talking about SpongeBob's ego, its very clear that while he tries to give off a nicer introduction to his character he does have another side of competitiveness to him.
This actually taught me something which was that having depression and being depressed are two different things because I thought those were two different things.
They are. Every goes through sadness or low points in life…..depression is an actual devastating illness and takes all joy from living life. That’s why it pisses me off to no end that depression and anxiety are thrown around so haphazardly. NO! You may feel down or get nervous but having a real diagnosable condition is a whole different experience…..but what do I know everyone is mentally ill nowadays. 😂😂😂😂 give me a break
Btw I can be as upset as I want, I have professionally diagnosed agoraphobia. I know real anxiety.
I feel like the eoisode Dumped and also Have You See This Snail are big proof to Songebob being depressed. It seems like Gary is the main thing keeping him not depressed.
Also sometimes depressed people will try to overcompensate and cope with their depression through a super optimistic attitude and always try to help everyone. Not all depressed people look like Squidward.
Agreed. Also, I love your Wander pfp.
I can’t blame him. I have a father who passed away a few years ago. And I was depressed for 3 years.
I don't think he has depression, but I think because he feels emotions very strongly, he's susceptible to becoming depressed. As for the OCD, I actually believe that's probable because of how far he can take his obsessions and act compulsively towards them.
He lives in bikini bottom and is a slave to the whole damn city, his best friends have left him in the past for his childish behavior he's constantly mocked by the fish folk, but when something is going wrong the fish turn to him if you ask me Spongebob shouldn't live in a pineapple he should have more respect he barely gets paid, people in society are just like him, we try so hard to be nice but we have enough and just want to have a assertive side, AGAIN when he did all his 'friends' including the smart one, told him to get rid of his abrasive side, just because HE WAS STICKING UP FOR HIMSELF
I don't think a lot of people understand the ending of "Are you Happy now?"
The whole time Squidward wasn't feeling anything at all at the time. What SpongeBob did made him feel Anger and thus the Anger made Squidward Feel Alive in the process.
I understood the ending. I didn't think it was good though. Something gentler would've been more fitting, especially considering SpongeBob only tried to help him throughout.
@AlkisenSuper I think the ending fits modern season squidward. Modern show squidward fills the void of wasted potential with a massive victim complex he can no longer stray because he gets the most attention and sympathy from not being ok. Which is why he doesn't want help from SpongeBob to get better in the end. The episode felt like a metaphor to the SpongeBob cycle the first time I watch it.
spongebob himself might not be depressed, but the show itself has taken a depressing direction and only gets worse.
These types of comments discourages me from wearing this new sweater i got with a bunch of SpongeBob memes on it :( i usually hear others talking trash about the show and i feel very concious about wearing it now FUCK.
@@Human1136Wear it
@@Human1136 Own it. That's all you can do. If people don't like it, too bad. Their opinions are just that: Opinions.
And frankly, people hate on everything that's popular, whether it's actually good or not. A lot of the time, just because hating on it is, in itself, popular. It's "cooler" to make fun of Spongebob than to like it. But while I wouldn't precisely call it the best cartoon out there, there are _reasons_ that it's popular and has lasted so long.
Spongeboomer
I dont know about that, but I know _I_ am depressed. Ever since becoming an adult I have been constantly non-stop depressed and just can't cheer up. I don't have the energy or feel motivated to do anything. Even sunny days don't cheer me up, in fact they just make me feel worse.
I absolutely agree and relate
Sucks to be you right now
Hope you feel better soon
Same. Try to get help, and focus on self-care. I started using a self-care app recently because I just can't fix this mess on my own, but I can't afford therapy. It's not perfect by any measure, nor as much help as a therapist could be, but it's what I have, and it's certainly better than nothing. It reminds me that it's okay if all you can really do is survive the day, and has helped me to learn some methods to deal with it when my brain says everything sucks.
I have a feeling that inside, the most depressed man inside in the show might be plankton
How he wanted to be huge success then no one buys anything
How he got HUMILLIATED by his OWN FRIEND
How he got roasted many times in school
How he can get to the depend about peoples "wow it tastes good"
Poor man
And how everyone thinks his creations are a failure
All the bad things hes done could be calls of attention
I can see this, especially after episodes like Gone, Whobob Whatpants, etc.
And sometimes, depressed people often put on a smile (pretending to be happy) to mask their true feelings.
Depression can go on and off. But after certain episodes like the ones I mentioned above, it wouldn't surprise me if his mental health is declining.
Poor SpongeBob.😢
Tldr version: he's not depressed, he just gets depressed in some episodes
Hey may very well have some emotional and or mental issues, but not quite as severe as full out depression, such as possible OCD or ADD/ADHD, both of these could apply to our beloved porous rectangle, but we’ll likely never know
When you treat everyone the way that you want to be treated and never get it back, it can make anyone depressed, even a person as kindhearted as spongebob
Ah yes, a solid mental health video essay by (checks notes) ...mustardpregnancy. huh.
I like it when they give Spongebob a variety of emotions, it makes him more relatable and easier to understand
3:12 I know a lot of mental issues kind of overlap but I think a possible diagnosis could also be autism.
I know I kind of get like this when someone says something about my special interest that kind of seems to undermine my authority on the subject, sort of thing. You know? Like if I was just as into being a frycook as spongebob is and I heard "you got the pickles wrong" even when I *know* for a fact I didnt... i'd be fairly messed up about it too.
Realistically sponge bobs life sucks
he has a dead end job with a greedy boss
no one respects him.
so naturally him being in a state of depression is no surprise.
no one can be as optimistic as spongebob with his life.
not a new observation by any means something i noticed is that in most examples spongebob's behavior can easily be explained by autism. his difficulty with change, especially with his interests or routine, his naïveté and seeming lack of ability to "read the room", even OCD-like compulsions are fairly common within those on the spectrum.
i doubt he was written with neurodivergence in mind but as a young undiagnosed kiddo i found myself relating to him quite a bit, maybe even moreso now as i get older.
tbh most of the characters have very strong personalities and defined interests that could be attributed to neurodivergence; children's cartoons (even as great and well-written as spongebob) aren't usually known for their deep and complex characters. spongebob stands out to me as the most likely to be labelled canonically on the spectrum, and is the most realistic feeling representation of the show.
and patchy. patchy is definitely autistic.
hes depressed because nickelodeon ruined his show into oblivion
😂😂😂😂😂😂 so funny I agree
I don’t think he’s really depressed but i definitely see the OCD. He has bouts of insomnia too. But he’s inspiring because he keeps a positive attitude for most of his life despite his struggles. He’s not afraid to express his emotions either because he can get super angry or sad but he doesn’t get bitter at the world. The driving anxiety is also just plain relatable.
I agree with you that SpongeBob gets depressed and isn’t depressed. But these examples do give off a good argument that he might have an anxiety disorder or something. I mean his reactions to driving is way overboard. He gets so scared and terrified of the pressure that he is unable to complete it each time. All the times he does do well, it’s when something is there to ease his fears. If he wasn’t so scared, he would’ve not only have a license, but maybe be one of the best drivers ever.
Pickles are also a great example of what pressure does to him. He makes one mistake and he obsesses over it so much that it completely disrupts his life. It’s only when those fears are controlled and he finds out Bubble Bass is lying does he feel ok.
Heck, he hurts his butt once, and instead of just being more careful, he once again completely disrupts his life and cuts himself off from the rest of the world. Letting his fear of getting hurt, completely change him.
SpongeBob gets fired or forced to take a break a few times in the show and each time his life crumbles. Feeling he is unable to do anything else. Almost like his worth is directing tied to him working at the Krusty Krab. A fear of change is definitely a common theme in those episodes.
Even the first episode establishes that he feels he isn’t worthy of working at The Krusty Krab. It’s only a small moment in the beginning, but it’s pretty consistent throughout the show that small mistakes make him feel unworthy of a job, or a toy, or whatever.
In a cartoon show, things aren’t always completely consistent as it’s episodic in this case. And I’m sure many can provide many counterpoints. So what do you guys think?
I am both a sensitive person, but I also deal with depression on the daily unfortunately and I strongly relate to this framing of Spongebob. My father has OCD and I tend to become obsessive when it comes to feeling like "I can do so much better" and things like that. Its an excellent video and I highly praise you for your wording.
SpongeBob may likely simply have issues that stem from controlling and showcasing his emotions and self esteem.
I definitely think SpongeBob has adhd or/ and is autistic. A common trait seen in autism is the fear of change to things in your life or routine, social anxiety and social disconnection (lack of understanding social situations and difficulty in reading the room/ others emotions) this is obviously a trait he has as he has been manipulated countless times by the same people, you can also see this disconnection whenever he interacts with Squidward. He also has a tendency to stim (traits common with adhd and autism), but i won't count that as it's a cartoon and cartoon characters tend to be very animated. ADHD can also explain his sudden shift in moods (i personally don't think it would be a bipolar disorder as they are more complex than having mood swings). Fyi, this is all coming from someone who's autistic and has adhd, im not a professional psychologist, but i am quite the psychology nerd.
That point about SpongeBob's driving actually makes alot of sense to me. When I first learned how to drive, my father couldn't keep his composure and would freak out and scream whenever I would make a mistake. It made me drive significantly worse and more reckless due to the anxiety. I still get mild anxiety when I drive with him as a passenger.
Damn I just watched the mayo video and I gotta say that you're really making a lot of sense with your theories. Might be my new favourite channel
SpongeBob is depressed about Nickelodeon milking the entire show and erasing the entire story created by its creator, Stephen, and making a new one completely soulless
He is depressed with no tribute paid to Stephen which Nick should have done
SpongeBob misses being the manager of the Krusty Krab 2
i just feel bad for SpongeBob now :(
Its not just depression for him as Tom Kenny his voice actor thinks Spongebob has Asperger Syndrome too. Hes aware of that long running theory that our iconic Sea Sponge might be on the spectrum like me :) He definitely has qualities and traits of an Autistic person himself too. He might also have bad OCD as obsesses over small things really badly like trying to get things right and in order and is always trying to make Mr Krabs happy all the time.
That is so cool to learn the VA thinks he has autism/aspergers and I have it too. It is crazy to think a animated sponge i watched my whole life has the same possible disorder as me :)
He is not depressed, but might have major depressive disorder since things seem to affect him very easily. Would also explain why he has manic highs, why he chases constant stimulation, and why after 10 seasons without Therapy except for an unrelated issue, he's become absorbed into his hyperactive state (and flanderized).
I would not be surprised at all to find out Spongebob is neurodivergent. As a person with adhd and possible ocd, I relate to most of his symptoms and it's surprising how much a simple kid's show not meant to be taken seriously or have long storylines can portray mental disorders and illness. I personally think he has adhd because of his hyperfixiations and cravings for stimulation.

Spongebob: "I can't see! I can't SEE!"
Patrick: "My PANTS! >:("
Great video btw
about SpongeBob's driving issues:
For a lot of trauma victims there's something called skill regression. It's literally losing the ability to perform basic skills. For some people it can be talking, but for others it could be driving.
When SpongeBob is doing the best at driving it's either when there's some sort of comforting authority figure, or by being chased to death lol. Some trauma victims deal with near constant skill-regression to the point where their default is not being able to perform said skill. That being said, warmth from an authority figure can often be processed as enough love and kindness to a trauma victim that it temporarily makes them feel safe enough to re-progress said skills
SpongeBob does actually show signs of manic depression if I'm not mistaken
As someone who has depression (not gatekeeping it, and if anyone out there with depression has a different experience than mine, that's ok. I'm merely speaking from my own perspective) it's so hard to say because the show is episodic. But even with the examples shown I don't think he has it. He's just someone who expresses his emotions very strongly, whether they're sad or happy. Many of those moments I think even confident and/or mentally healthy people would feel distraught by (losing a pet, being humiliated by someone, teased etc.) I'd say his condition is more closely tied to autism than anything, a disorder that is commonly diagnosed alongside depression and ADHD (I have ASD but not ADHD)
Interesting video! I like that you didn't make your answer conclusive. It's important when the characters concerned are fictional.
EDIT: As many people have pointed out, Squidward is way more likely to suffer from major depressive disorder. He strongly exhibits all of the most common signs (feeling tired, outbursts of anger, agitation etc.), but just like real life, it's not all or nothing. There are periods when it manifests more and when it manifests less, which is why Squidward can be shown engaging in hobbies and interests. (This inconsistency is probably why we Millenials relate so hard to his ennui lol)
When you get older, You think his lifestyle is bad.
He's a child stuck in an adult body.
He works at a dead end minimum wage food service job with a toxic egotistical cheapskate boss, and his coworker despises him.
He doesn't own a car or has his own drivers license, and doesn't know how to operate a car.
But at the same time, despite his life not being perfect in an adult lens, he seems like he's doing well for himself. He has a fancy 2-story house, a snail, he has friends, has a full-time job he enjoys doing, and seems like he's getting paid well, has job beneifts, such as a 401k, pet insurance, health insurance etc, and also gets help from his parents too probably.
I doubt he's getting paid much given the amount of times it was revealed that Spongebob (and presumably Squidward as well) was being paid very little by Mr. Krabs, plus that one episode where he mentioned he gets paid in "wacky bucks", which aren't even of legal tender.
I feel like he takes his stress out on Squidward because of Mr. Krabs.
Even the happiest souls are depressed.
SpongeBob perplexes me. He's hated by everyone, when all he ever does is try. But he seems not to understand certain social cues. In a vacuum, you might say this is a sign of some form of mental deficiency, or developmental problem. But this to me seems a lot more like a PTSD response, and depression. If you couple this with his unintentional, and yet all too real sociopathic tendencies (remember the whirlybird disaster), and the fact that, despite Squidward's unbelievable annoyance with him, he sticks around and even sticks up for him, helps him and taks care of him when he needs it, and this would explain SpongeBob's undying loyalty in his 'friendship' towards him, in spite of the seeming lack of reciprocation, it seems to me that there is a lot more to SpongeBob's behavior, and the dynamic between him and his friends then is immediately evident in the show.
SpongeBob is generally loved by bikini bottom it’s just like squidward who hates him
@@runier2352 They're relatively quick to turn on him though.
@@runier2352they all love spongebob until they don’t tbh. Remember when spongebob’s grandma gave him a kiss on the forehead? Or when squidward pulled a prank on him? They’re so much worse then squidward cause most of the time squidward is justified
I don't think Spongebob is depressed per se, I just think he's VERY emotionally volatile. Whatever emotion he feels at the moment, he feels INTENSELY and those emotions can change very quickly. When he's sad, he's VERY sad- but when he's happy, he's VERY happy. I do understand the argument for him being depressed though
Short answer, no, SpongeBob is not depressed. SpongeBob may feel emotions of sadness or frustration or anger sometimes but don’t we all. SpongeBob can’t feel such emotions as depression because his spongey material saves him from so. If anything SpongeBob doesn’t feel any emotions for others aka when the SpongeBob voice actor calls SpongeBob one not to physically love someone, and instead makes everyone around him suffer when he realizes the camera is on.
If the answer is yes then….
*Hi! I’m spongebob!*
Oh
I don't think spongebob has depression I think he's just autistic, I deeply relate to him in welcome to the Chum Bucket (speaking as someone with autism) I love my work routine and I have a hard time when this is disrupted for me, especially when the people I like to work with change around me, I have a hard time learning to trust new people at work I think because my routine is so precious to me, Spongebob's situation is very similair.
He loves his work, he enjoys working with Squidward he's really in his element when working at the Krusty Krab, and being forced away from there into a restaurant that has a different atmosphere no customers and no coworkers, and unintuitive he can look to disrupts all the things he loves about being a fry cook.
I have shared a similair expirience and I think it's partially why I love Spongebob (season 1-3 is gold the rest doesn't aproach it, especially not after the fucking squid baby episode) so much, he's a deeply relatable character and I think he did help me develop into the person I am today.
idk about depression but he's surely emotionally unstable. I mean, you can be a sunshine as a person and your worldview is all unicorns and rainbows but when something goes wrong you just collapse. I currently relate to that a lot.
When something makes Spongebob sad he's so desperate, no matter how silly the problem is
These episodes are how you see mental illness? You have no idea what depression or OCD is.
You better be joking. This video only has SIX comments?!?! This video is actually pretty awesome
True.
My "Pickles" episode is my music career. Ive always had very high expectations for my music and my career in the music industry. You have to rely on a lot of people around you whether it be an agent or bandmates. There have been times in my career when the expectations of certain career goals werent met and it put me in a very low place. Luckily, the older I get, the more I realize that its a life long journey and I shouldnt fret over the small stuff. The big thing is when certain things dont work out, the best thing to do is tweak the way you're doing things and that will most likely create a better outcome.
i agree
Thank you for actually making an interesting video on SpongeBob bc im getting so sick of every video essay on SpongeBob on this site being written and structured super predictably
Spongebob is just a cry baby.

SpongeBob is my "Literally me" character.
Body made some valid points especially in the OCD section ( i have ocd thoughts) there's no way this man has depression. We look several times in what he actually sees. It's all sunshine and rainbows like Pearl
Imagen playing the main character with no meaningful growth for twenty years, who wouldn't be depressed if that was there life.
This is why old SpongeBob is better
Yep i cant watch anything after season 9
SpongeBob knows how to drive, he just fails under the pressure of tests, especially if he's being watched during it. It's something that some people go through in real life. It's kind of like being at work and doing a great job but the moment the supervisor gets near you and watches your performance, it creates a massive amount of pressure and you start making mistakes in front of the supervisor.
In the first episode when Bob applies at the Krabby Patty, his biggest fear is the interview itself. Technically, SpongeBob did fail his interview, but Mr. Krabb's decided to prank SpongeBob by sending him on a mission that was impossible to accomplish, yet he somehow managed to do what was asked of him and he landed the job.
If he could take his drivers test without someone in the car with him, he'd probably pass it quickly. Since that isn't an option, he is stuck without a drivers license. lol
No SpongeBob is yellow

Cool video, but some people are kind of fetishizing emotions and mental illness in this comment section and in general.
I wouldn’t be surprised if he was depressed, he’s been going on for years and his creators won’t just give up and give my guy a happy ending.
I think that something with Miss puffing is causing SpongeBob to not be able to drive cause notice that with almost every other driver he those fine
In my simple thinking, I would say that SpongeBob having moments of sadness is to show the public that we are not unshakable and things can hurt our feelings, However, sad situations cannot make us sad people and SpongeBob deals with this by being positive and even a little altruistic, especially when it comes to his work where he does his best to make everyone satisfied with his food

It is mostly confirmed that spongebob has adhd and Mr.Krabs has ocd

Dang...
2:54 At this moment of the video i suspected that i might have an OCPD.(The video says OCD but i think OCD wasn't what Spongebob went through) Cause what you just told about what spongebob went through was so similar with my life. I was watching this video while i was depressed. And dude that was the REASON.
When i was searching about OCPD I learned this and wanted to share it with you guys too "OCPD can be difficult to diagnose, as most people with a personality disorder don’t think there’s a problem with their behavior or way of thinking. When they do seek help, it’s often because of anxiety or depression due to the problems created by their personality disorder, such as losing their job or relationships, not the disorder itself."
