Poor thing. I’ll bet her mansion in the Hamptons will help with that. Imagine being quarantined and being poor!!

And who isn’t?

Wow! What’s with the hair!! Now that you’re no longer first whatever, you’re finally showing your roots? Why not before? She never wore that haircut? A true HYPOCRITE!

I'm sure HE is depressed! It comes from selling your sole!

No your having to face your husband and your lies and not doing a damaged thing for the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

Hmmm...

Oh please I’d like to be dealing with low grade depression with millions of dollars and to live on an estate while going through this pandemic! Wahh wahhh

Child sex ring scandal is closing in on Obama

She lives in a bubble. She had no idea what it’s like to work hard for something only to be denied it thanks to affirmative action or being downsized out of the military because of her husbands idiotic policies.

Madam 1st lady, I'm there too. We have acknowledged our low, my dad said.If you don't like something, get off your sad butt and Do something about it. Sooo I'm joining my community center to help ppl complete their census and ensure they are registered to vote.What r u doing?

Most of America is dealing with SOME form of depression, we just can’t believe we’ve come to this......

Michelle, I’m with you. Most women and many men feel the same way

Same. Girl. Same.

Same

Me too. Things are pretty depressing!

countercupcake Aren't we all.

Maybe worried Obama will go to jail for visiting Pedo Island?

Unfortunately, Trump and COVID are ruining many lives. These are naturally very depressing times. I am seeing many more patients coming in for mental health issues related specifically to those two factors.

First world problems.

Depressed She can pay her bills. She has plenty of food. Nice clothes. She has a nice home. She doesn’t have to move in with her relatives who can barely feed themselves. I know that rich people can be depressed but right now a whole lot of people has it much worse than her

Blah blah blah

Transgender people often do have depression. It makes it worse when your husband is a crack head and homosexual

Give me a break! Of course anyone could get some depression over one or all of these things,but if she really wants depression I will trade places with her anytime.

We all are, bravo for admitting it.

I feel depressed with the pandemic,It makes it worse for me cause went through the CoVID19 .During all this illness I lost my job.But what’s worse is there’s to doctors with too many CDC vaccines ideasBut what’s me is President Trump giving the public medical advices.Blessings

Imagine having low-grade depression and not having the privilege of living in a mansion on the vineyard & living in a cramped apartment w/ no a/c, or not having an income, or having a diagnosis like cancer or other devestating illness & not able to get treatment. So relatable,huh

MichelleObama - I feel you sister. Hang in there, and keep ya head up. Let's all hope for some brighter days on the horizon.

Are you sure she isn’t sad about her husband being charged with treason! And oh buy 65k worth it hotdogs. We all know Obama likes little boys much! Blame it on the truth.

Oh boo hoo

I totally get this. I battle it also under Trump. But thankfully my family and especially the dogs keep me from falling too low.

Seriously? What a fake

I think it’s called OBAMAGATE !! 🤷‍♀️

Must be depressing to live like a millionaire, while others are imprisoned in their tiny apartments 🙄

I wish her the same she wishes for me

She's not the only one. It's ridiculous that our government is making the worst decisions possible right now.

Yeah well boo hoo. At least she is rich. She should keep quiet or help others.

Stay strong. We got this and realDonaldTrump will pass to obscurity soon enough! Sending love and positive vibes your way 💕

She's depressed because her husband might finally get caught with his corruption!

Didn’t this “racist” country elect her husband president—twice?

Now I know what to call how I’ve been feeling these last few months.

Her school lunch program affected a lot of people in the same way😂

thinkkimthink Nice to know we aren’t alone in this. Empathy seems in short supply and so far away these days

OMG...She looks like a Grimalkin

Now imagine that plus losing your job. This is a mental health pandemic, too.

Me 2 actually. Seeing this picture gives me low grade anxiety.

I want to perhaps her husband will be indicted that can make anybody a little depressed

For you sanity, good people, at least for now, stay away from the news...

Yeah it’s called Trump to rangement syndrome and a lot of people in November will be suffering from that because they can’t believe POTUS got reelected .

You should have depression and anxiety thinking about all the pedophiles in our government and pedowood SaveTheChildren pedosdeservedeath

We probably all are to some degree. It's a lot. Got to take this strange time to learn and create a better way to be human together. It's the silver lining if we make it so.

from this point on.. it's just more 'tweets from twits' from 'taxpayer-supported and leftist NPR' useful fools.. do yourself a favor.. save yourself some time and save what's left of your sanity and go ahead and just..

🙄 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

Hopefully she feels better soon.

Yes, I can relate - has to put up with her failed husband’s presidency for 8 years!

Don't worry, 45 is predicted to lose in November.

Really, that’s funny. Everyone has low grade depression or high grade like me. The 8 years while was in office, they did nothing to change or challenge the equity in America. It’s just too funny now she see it.

I'm sure she is, looking like that

Aren’t we all?

FYI: swear word in video This was right after he was elected. Clinical counselors definitely saw an increase in clients from this reality of crazed life we are in now.

Oh, yeah? Sure.

I hear that a trip to a tropical 🌴 island could help with these symptoms.... EpsteinIsland

She mustn’t eat her depression away ..... poor mooochelle

Me too!

Yeah. I remember feeling that way from 2008 to 2016. It was because of the economic situation and the Obama administration.

Me too ☮️❤️

She should be depressed. She is disgusting.

For once, she's not special.

Look at Oprah bitching about white people and white people especially women made her a billionaire Watching Her show Never forget are you white women never trust women of color they’ll stab you in the Back

Not to diminish anyone’s mental health, but it if you’re NOT having a hard time with life right now; either you’re not paying attention or you have no heart!

Don’t forget Jon rivers Said she was a tranny two weeks later Jon Rivers died in a dentist office how quickly people forget this woman is a killer Steph rich killed after Exposing Hillary Clinton and these people are millionaires bunch of sick people

To bad your husband left the stocks of PPE for medical workers depleted.

Tired of hearing about Orange 🍊 dude is “DISTRACTING”! Dude is a SOCIOPATH who is STRAIGHT-UP LYING! ALL CON! Ask his niece Mary Trump PH D! ORANGE 🍊 will CREATE UNNECESSARY DRAMA 24-7/365 Days a year. Dude is a SICK specimen! AMERICANS should be EMBARRASSED by his SH!

All these prejudiced comments are the reason why people are protesting around the world.

Low grade depression from guilt for profiting so much just because her husband was in politics. $100 million deal with Netflix. They are really down with the revolution.

maybe she could tell us more about it in her megamillion media deal

Poor baby.

Her husband didn’t locked 🔒 her on SWINE flu.

A lockdown they create. She’s depress for something else. In this life you pay 💰 everything.

And also the fact that everybody now knows that she has a penis.

I’m depressed from all these depressed people telling me there are depressed.

And what her husband did to America for 8 years!

Oh boo hoo it sucks to be Rich and have around the clock armed protection....she’s probably depressed that her husband made a political speech at a funeral and embarrassed the family name!

Everyone is feeling what you are feeling! Stay strong, you are not alone!

Poor Michelle, forever a victim. I remember in 2016 when she said that “America is the greatest country on Earth”

Good when you having a fatal heart attack poor baby

Poor guy.

Oh please. Get off the cross....we need the wood😡

Mrs. Obama....... please please please be Joe Biden’s running mate. You would be a great VP and POTUS.

Some form of depression? Michelle, think TDS!

Imagine her depression if she actually had stress in her life.

Suck it up buttercup

Who cares what she thinks? Shes always hated this country!!!

Still better than when I had suffered from Mid-level depression under Obama’s Presidency.

Run as VP.

Aren’t we all Michelle, aren’t we all 😔

Is she American

Put on news not your far left drivel. QuitGivingTaxDollarsToThisProgandaFarLeftDrivelFilledOrganization

Let’s all feel sorry for her.

Who cares about MichelleObama she didn’t do anything for this country as the First Lady. She’s clearly racist. Her and Obama hung out with movie stars and rappers. Our real and current president deals with bs media lies and still does better than those Obama ppl ever could.

She’ll be better in November 🇺🇸🇺🇸 trump

If I shared energies with a war criminal I'd be depressed too. Wtf is 'low grade' depression... its called DEPRESSION for us common folk... yes, its okay to say you have a mental illness...she's ADOS and we still live in America..lets work from there.

Me too

Ilhan Omar is suffering from low grade IQ

So were we for eight years.

Michelle, you should go to church, God can help you with that.

More like she’s dealing with a low-grade testosterone level.😂. 🙏🇺🇸TRUMP 2020

It’s her weight gain, no one feels good when they are sooo fat

Depression can affect anyone, no matter how famous they are. However, she has the benefit of food and housing security.

Good news

My heart bleeds. We suffered through eight years with the same symptoms

Defund npr

here is tissue for you

Good tobhear, you poor thing, bless your little heart

Reading thru these comments its clear theres shifting taking place in our view of celebrities..or im just not used to Twitter negativity just yet lol

Her life is so rough🙄

Same here

Michelle is depressed that she’s no longer in the lime light and that her husbands agenda has been thwarted.

🤷‍♀️

get a grip and help some kids out with all your cash

Yeah it’s called BS syndrome of getting pity votes for the left.

Obama MichelleObama Michelle Obama's low-grade depression isn't from Trump, it's from a failed sex-change operation.

Let me know when it gets to high grade!

Join the club, I was living with high grade depression when Obama was on office

Join the club.

Not about her lies and pédophile connections ?

Spare us all.

I think the majority of the world can relate

How can a woman who got rich off America be depressed because of America? She and Oprah should buy an island and be happy together

p.s. I don't know what country she lives in, but there's no mandated 'quarantine' in this country.

All problems manufactured by her party. More like a low-road depression.

I thought that we cleared this up, its MICHAEL not Michelle.....

Poor girl

MichelleObama as you can see from people comments a lot of people are suffering from mental illness and don't even know it. When feeling down Mrs. Obama grab hold of your Bible. It works !!!

With all these people dying? The lawlessness and vulgar criminality in out government? Good god, I know what she means. You’d have to be made of stone not to feel it.

“Low grade depression” is nothing compared to what the Obama administration caused to thousands in the middle east. Suck it up like the rest of us.

Me too

I am suffering from low grade depression seeing Moochelle in the news again. I am off to go flogg myself right now!

Really ?depression ? thats very hypocritical to say. Hello you have millions of dollars and a big home complete with home entertainment and everything. What happen to Chicago on your husbands 8 years term by the way? That’s very depressing. What a liar.

Maybe if Michelle Obama focused on her blessings in her 7,000 sq, $12 million dollar home she wouldn't be feeling depressed. Looking at the positive advancement this country has made and is continuing to make in addressing racial equality is something to rejoice not mourn over.

The Obama should shut up. Stop divide this great country. We are very happy with President Trump! If you want to blame then you should blame it on your China friend the Communist. You & your husband have pocketed a lot of $$ from the CCP!

😂😂😂😂

I’m so sorry. What a bitch.

She was only first proud to be an American when she was in the White House. Biden will lose.

Wait until ObamaGate turns into ObamaHate - you are going to need some good meds, girlfriend. Don’t worry- Trump is working on making them cheaper.

Nerd

Same

Aren’t we all!

Serious despair at times with everything going on. I try to stay positive for my kids but it is really hard sometimes!

Depressed in your big a$$ house and your giant bank account with massive security to keep you safe. People are dying, going hungry and loosing their homes and your slightly depressed? The world has always been this horrible, smart phones just document everything now. Your weak

I'm a white woman and I have felt this low-grade depression ever since Trump was elected. I voted for Hilary Clinton and I want to see a woman in the White House. I want to see a woman supported by all. I love that Biden supports women. BidenDemings Biden2020

I guess that's news

It’s Mike

I can relate with depression but low grade? I have lived and struggled with severe depression for 50 years! Poor Michelle this lockdown isn’t a good cause to be depressed! There other things that are much worse to be depressed about!

Wow. Must be so hard in her ivory tower. Us little people see it everyday in real life. They're worth millions now, the Obama's. They are the 1%. Crocodile tears. Trump2020Landslide ObamaGateIsReal

Wtf are half these replies. Nobody's happy about the situation and idk what how having money makes being unable to see friends/family in person any less shitty.

Yep

The Trump administration?! He’s done more for the black community than any other POTUS since President Lincoln! Lowest black unemployment rate in DECADES! What have the democratics done?! How is the Trump Administration causing her low-grade depression in regards to racism?

Man some of y’all are just mean. It’s unproductive at best.

OMG, playing the victim card. Welcome to the way we all feel.

She is a very hateful person imo.

I would agree w/ Ms. Obama. But depression comes in waves, combined w/ anger & sadness, cycling w/ brief glimpses of hope. But mostly I am angry... and that worries me.

It will get worst when barak gets jail time just hold on to your underwear ,,,, my dear Miguel

At least depression isn't bad as Retarded Joe Biden.

This woman is amazing!!!

Thank You for validating my feelings exactly

Who can blame her?

Hope this helps

Depression is real 😕

Probably gender confusion

Poor you.

🥺😢

Me too

Same

My anxiety is through the roof. Healthcare told us nurses to make out our wills and have our last wishes in place - just in case. That’s some over the top reality that everyone has to acknowledge now.

MichelleObama i have been feeling the same way for almost 4 years!

THANK YOU MA'AM.... for making me, somehow Feel, a Bit Better about myself. To know You Too STRUGGLE, and at times SUCCUMB in the Face of so much HATE! I SEE YOU..

She should tell the truth about her depressed feelings is really about her husband betraying the United States by giving Iran one hundred and fifty billion dollars and siding with Biden about Vile same-sex marriages, that brought a Curse upon our country.

Glad she shares what we ALL are going through.

Me too.

Booo hoooo

Let me know when i should cate about her.

This warms my heart

Why is everything Trumps fault? EVERYONE is dealing with coronavirus and 99% of us have less money than you and currently have no electricity 🙄

The Left has been tripping over themselves all to have the honor of kissing her ass and it’s not enough?

Michelle says the truth!! We miss you

WHAT YOU SAID IN 2008. WAS SHAMELESS,,MICKY. GUESS WHAT,,THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT AREN'T PROUD OF YOU,,YOU GOT WHAT YOU WANTED OUT OF OUR COUNTRY,,AND NOW WE WISH THAT YOU WOULD JUST GO AWAY,,,PLEASE, TAKE BARRY WITH YOU ,PLEASE,, YOUR PITIFUL,,

Michelle go home!

Low grade depression huh? We were hoping for more. Much more!!

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣wow!

She’s a Low-Grade mama.

Poor thing. Go count your money and cheer up.

She is literally all of us

MichelleObama you have low-grade depression? That’s all? Shoot, most the American people been having high-grade depression since Trump took office. You’re gonna make it & keep fighting the good fight.

Same.

If she has ”some form of low grade depression,” she should try “some form of high grade weed.”

Same First Lady. Same. You’re not alone!

Mama3Cubs Keeping is real and being authentic. I’m miss you MichelleObama

It's her low T.

Poor thing😢. I’m sure her life, w her multitude of cronies & millions of dollars, compares to the strife we, the normal citizens, face. 🙄 If anything, I’d agree she’d feel depression, but more likely bc her soul is conflicted by the created sinful chaos & divisions she’s seen.

Poor spoiled eletist

...so OBAMGATE and Obamas administration tied to child sex trafficking has nothing to do with it?

She is far from alone 💜

Oh please!! I still get depressed when I think about how your hubby did more to divide this country than Trump has.

Most Americans knows how she feel.... We were depressed while her husband was President...

She so full of BS

So disturbing of her to say this....everything she has received is due to her being African-American........she is soooo rich n not sick with Covid-19....what about all of the sick and unemployed.....disgusting of a first lady to say...thank goodness she is GONE

His name is Michael ....

Best actress

The Obama's crying racism after he was elected twice by white people and they became multi-millionaires because of it. Thinks about that.

Aren’t we all? Oh, wait, nearly 40% of our fellow Americans think everything is peachy keen.

Get her a banana. She’ll be right as rain.

I feel it too.

Is she depressed when she visits her home in Hawaii or Martha’s Vineyard, the home in DC All 3 places or one in particular. Asking for a homeless person.

MichelleObama Michelle Obama Come November, you'll have something to be depressed about!

AVestige1 I'm guessing many people are dealing with mental health issues during quarantine.

Weird, I felt the same from 2009-2017.

Barack’s going to jail... depression MAGA

Is she sure it doesn’t have anything to do with being married to the most corrupt US president in history?

She must be upset about her husband being on the Epstein flight logs.

Who the hell isn't Michelle? This announcement did no good for anyone. Damned if you do situation most def

Who isn’t.

Calm down Mike. Take a Xanax

Good, I had to deal with for 8 long years while her corrupt husband was in office

Horse crap... Just needing some attention and drama. If she is depressed it because she's married to a criminal jackass...

Aren’t also all the good people out there feeling the same

She did gain a lot of weight.

Right beside you .MichelleObama. 🙏🏽💙🙌🏽

We all are

So same way we all felt when her husband was in office. Yet that lasted 8 years and we survived. Such a tough life she has. Chilacantpoop

I believe many people are finding themselves in the same place especially poc and any other targets of this administration.

Poor thing....

I’m glad that she said it. I’ve been trying stay strong ‘cause there’re so many ppl suffer—losing job, home, and/or family; fighting with COVID on the front line—much more than me. Over 1/2 year long pandemic with lots of change is really hard. I think it’s ok to feel depressed.

Aren’t we all?

That's empathy for you.

Pointless article, who cares

Will trump winning reelection make it high-grade? TrumpDerangementSyndrome is real!

Wanting a little attention I do believe....

She’s not alone there are thousands. I wouldn’t say I’m depressed but I’m scared what will happen if trump wins and extremely anxious. Never in my life have I get like this just from living ina country. Also I’m home body and I love being home so quarantine is not an issue for me

She’s low T😂

Wait till his wife Barry gets pulled in for questioning about Epstains Island. WOOHOO!! Gotta love the Democrats.😂 TRUMP 2020!!!🙏🇺🇸

Hide you sharp objects come November! TDS

Just a couple theories, throwing it out there, maybe her jock strap is to tight or she has jock itch!

You are a great lady that I enjoy listening from

m obama, Last I heard you were never in politics. You are not gualified to Judge our great PRESIDENT.HE has done more for our nation than any PRESIDENT in Decades. He will be re elected. One nation under God indivisible.

Ah, aren’t we all?

She should be depressed. Watching the hate and division her husband stirred up would be tough! Lmao! She is loving it. That’s what the Obuma’s are all about! Hate, division and crooked! Go away!

Poor Michelle! It’s her husband who caused all of this racial divide

WHO CARES THE SUICIDE RATES IN AMERICA ARE SKYROCKETING! CHILDREN ARE STARVING AND FAMILIES CANT PAY THEIR RENT. WGAF ABOUT THIS MILLIONAIRE AND HER “DEPRESSION” I sure DONT.!

Our universe is held together by the force of Michelle Obama's benevolent willpower, but her patience is running thin

I suffered high grade depression when Obama was in office.. the point.

OMG poor Michelle ...... NOT! Trump gets blamed for EVERYTHING!!! I lost a shoe ... blame Trump, I eat too much .... blame Trump, i ran out of toilet paper .... blame Trump ..... WTF 🤷🏻‍♀️

We need more drone strikes to make us feel better .

I mean no disrespect, but take accountability please, isn’t that what your husband loves to preach to the black community? If Former President Obama would have done right by the people, specifically Black Americans, we wouldn’t have Trump as President.

I get depressed every time the former First Lady who was at the bottom 5% of her law class feels the need to render an opinion about anything.

I completely understand had been feeling the same way. Something that has truly helped me, music. Have a hot bath & as many times a day as u want... put on some Louis Armstrong & Ella Fitzgerald. Another calming suggested one... Frank Sinatra . These truly help.

Same.

Sad bc she can’t host any more pizza parties

The thought of being found guilty if treason and pedophilia would make any one depressed...right?

Michelle is in a slump.. She knows they can’t stop Trump.

She should 90% is Obama's fought.

Omg. I have been experiencing depression because of the same issues. I don’t want to watch the horror of black persons being handcuffed while their children cry, being yelled at because of the color of their skin, being killed. But, I need to watch it so I try to stop it

Mama3Cubs Me too. 100%.

We’re all dealing with issues from the quarantine, the protests, the upcoming school year being delayed, restrictions with social distancing, 🎭 making sure we don’t forget our masks when we leave the house. I guess her point is to share so people realize they’re not alone.

Join the club.

Well don’t forget the eight years your husband was in office.

And he's just getting tired of living his life as a woman...

Join the club

realDonaldTrump did more for minorities than 47 years of democrats that are pandering, lying, race baiters for votes.

Pathetic if true

Must be the new pad in the Hamptons right on the beach. Poor thing.

Since she is self diagnosing I wonder if she is self medicating - with Chablis...

Thank you so very much for being so honest about your feelings. Am praying many will hear your message. Once again, you lead our country with integrity and spiritual guidance. Many blessings to you.

I can relate, I suffered with the same symptoms for 8 years while your husband destroyed our nation. And then for another 3 years dealing with OBAMAGATE & a fraudulent impeachment.

Don’t worry MichelleObama It sounds like you have situational depression which will pass unlike my loved one who suffers from bipolardisorder You live in a $17 million home and can easily afford meds & counseling unlike so many who really suffer!

Disgusting display of race baiting bull$hit!! Race became an issue because that racist moron of a husband of hers made it an issue!!!!!!!

That’s shiit compared with what we felt when we saw your stupid Housband giving away money to foreign countries and to our enemies ,when he got the chance of doing good things for America he wasted our resources , I said f..you

I am so on your page my beautiful First Lady. I’ve been so depressed with not only the Covid but the race problems. You and Barack were my inspiration for 8 years . Miss u so much and wish you great health and prosperity.

Awwww .... 🤪

It shows she’s human and actually has compassion for people.

I admire Mrs Obama for her candidness and determination to continue to speak up for racial justice.

Awww poor little snowflake. We feel so sorry for you. NOT

Isn’t your husband half white?

I was depressed when your Husband was President.

Obama started this whole racial divide

Of course, she is depressed she is married to B Obama!

Me too 😞

Shame on Michelle Obama for making such an insensitive comment about mental illness...

As are most thoughtful people

MichelleObama—thank you for saying the silent part aloud. Cheers to you for talking about the depression many of us are struggling through.

Join the crowd Michelle. You’re definitely not alone when it comes to racial strife and Trump. Thankfully, I’ve come to terms with Corona.

She should see a psychiatrist.

Who isn’t!

Haha, she’s never been proud to be an American, Now she’s depressed because John Durham is getting closer and closer. Suck it up buttercup. noonecares ObamaGateAintGoingAway

Me too girl me too... Keep fighting!

Aren't we all grrrrrl.

conservatives are the type to sacrifice their own grandparents just so they’re safer from covid.

Depressed due to the fact that Trump is about to expose them all... obaMAGAte

I hear that

If her hubby didn’t cause it she was asleep for 8 years. Hope she gets better. Trump 2020

Me,too. Thanks for being so open!

I hear ya

Tell her to go to her mommy and she’ll have the spiritual nourishing. 👩‍👧👨‍👩‍👧‍👧 Nothing like a mother’s love and understanding!!!

I'm still looking for my doctor and healthcare savings. Instead, I got skyrocketing premiums, a bankrupt exchange, and a shitty HMO. Michelle gets a seaside mansion. She can go to hell.

POOR ODAMA, FEEL BAD FOR HER...'NOT' 😂🤣

💖🙏

We all are...

I think most women are similarly afflicted. I feel like my life has stood still for the past four years and I hope all of us women will feel rejuvenated as our spirits lift when the most dangerous man of our time is removed and dealt with accordingly in January.

Poor baby

'Not just because of the quarantine, but because of the racial strife, and just seeing this administration, watching the hypocrisy of it, day in and day out, is dispiriting.' 100% relatable content.

When the mirror is haunting you!

aren’t we all?

Welcome to the club. Activities include no activities. Because all you want to do when you are depressed is nothing. Now excuse me while I go lie down in my bed and regret my existence.

Suffering with all her millions, gee almost feet bad for her!

Hell the entire country is still dealing with depression from the 8 years her husband was President.

Michelle is all of us

Maybe she should get a job or start volunteering somewhere. It does wonders for depression when you stop focusing on oneself.

Or from lack of attention

As some who has depression, I can not tell you how relieved I am to see this article. I have been struggling for the past several months. To see that she is struggling makes me feel like I can get through all this. Thank you to her.

Imagine how suicidal we’d all be if the Covid occurred during the Obama administration.

Aren’t we all?!

Poor little rich and famous girl...

TELL HER TO JUST GROW UP, STOP EXALTING HERSELF, AND FIND GOD IN HER HEART! OTHERWISE-------------CRY ALL YOU WANT, YOU CAN'T HAVE ANOTHER COOKIE!

I applaud her bravery to admit something that evokes such venom from some, to bring recognition to mental illness and the need to destigmatize. Depression doesn’t care what age, gender, race, religion, or how wealthy ur. It can be slight or overwhelming. 1st step is acknowledging

Try having clinical depression.

OutnumberedFNC Mrs. Obama joins us in this depression. The quarantine, racial strife and the actions of the current administration. As we see, the pandemic blindsided us, Mr. Obama missed the shot at ending racial strife and partisan Congress disruption of the WH is so sad.

I feel your pain, Michelle. Welcome to the club!

Same.

And SHE’S a multi-millionaire!!! Think what us poor people are going through !!!

Nowhere near the depression we had when your husband Barry was destroying our country when he was president.

It’s normal and should be expected these days. As humans we are intimately connected with each other on a psychic & physical level. Being gentle with one-another is Uber important right now! Yoga and PRANAYAMA is essential for healthy bodymind.

MichelleObama don’t forget to add your husband’s FBI abuse being exposed to your list!

Aren’t we all...

Who isn’t? Except trump of course.

awwwww, poor baby.

Ya. It’s called life in 2020. Lady is awesome, but there’s 300M of us in the same boat.

me too Michelle, me too.

Is she still proud to be an American like she was 8 years ago?

We’re all getting TDS!

Welcome to the Club. amiright

Same.

Poor Moo-chelle

She knows Barry is about to go to jail.

Rich people problems 😒

She can’t be feeling as low as Trump’s homie.

I have this also for the same reasons

TrinityMustache Aren’t we all.....

MichelleObama running as Veep would cheer you up, no? 😁

It’s because she/he/it/they has their fudgee packed to much get Barack to swap positions and pack his fudge for a while take care of that depression be woke blm Remember MAGA

Thats funny. How big is her property again. The truth, yes the truth is millions of people are working, shopping, entertaining, vacationing etc. She falls into this category as does Ellen, Oprah etc. She is a liar like her husband.

So take a pill. Thank you President Trump, and keep up the fantastic work!

TrinityMustache If you're feeling mentally and emotionally stable in a society as disturbed as ours, there's something really wrong with you.

Bless you for your honesty Michelle! Anyone who is not a little depressed and angry and spiritually struggling during these times is just not paying attention. I remind my kids, grandkids and myself “God is still in control and it will not always be like this”. Keep praying!

Just like the rest of us.

Hard same

looks more like high level to me, you have to consider spouse, he probably calls her joe just for kicks it's ok to be white

MichelleObama we got this. Smile, breathe in, breathe out and together we can. There is help a call: National Crisis Hotline 1-800-273-8255 or Text HOME to 741741 to reach a Crisis Counselor. I believe that together, we can build the better world but it takes U to make us. 🙏🏻

Me, too. And, I already feel better after Michelle talked about hers.

Aren’t we all?!!!

Seriously? Oh she’s suffering from her mansion in the Hamptons, boo hoo 😢 try getting evicted or not having enough to eat. It’s all relative. Out of touch.

This is fault of moronic Ted Wheeler, Mayor of Portland.

GOOD JOB PRESIDENT TRUMP

Same

You’re not alone 🤗

Me too!

Starts from within Mrs. O, can't be blaming political rivals for how YOU feel.

Equating 'bummed out'with depression is a disservice to those with the true medical condition. I don't understand why she is so popular.

All the progress that was made, has been destroyed. The US is a much uglier place. That is depressing.

PROPAGANDA MACHINE DISINFORMATION MACHINE FAKESTREAM MEDIA FALSIFIER

Oh, honey, we all are.

Please tell her to take care of herself 💝

Maybe she should have done something about racism when she was in the WH for 8 years instead of growing plants. Ihave no sympathy because she had the power and blew it.

Must be hard in the Hamptons.

In response to Michele Obama, I was depressed for 8 years while her husband was president!

May*s give black queen severe depression, truly a depressing sight in the country

I was depressed for 8 years while you tried to tell us parents how to feed our children which led to a HUGE FOOD WASTE in schools

I'm not having any of that. Leave this precious lady alone.

Take one large dose of God. Can't say I am w/o some anxiety but know my relief lies in my faith. The Bible contains many messages for us. Also there's a book I must repurchase: 'God's Promises to Man' (approx 5'x7' -- red leather hardback). You'll feel it was made for you.

I think we all are dealing with some sort of depression

Oh man. Aren't we all.

Me too!

The one time it’s nice to f wit the low grade... Well, the rest of us got that straight 🔥 depression fam, hmu if u need a plug

Who isn’t?

Im dealing with high grade fury

We all are.

Aren't we all.

Join the club

Hate to see her admit this, but happy to see she has the strength to. Godspeed, Madam First Lady.

Some people out here dont know if they’ll be able to pay rent this month, or feed their family. but yeah, it must be really difficult to be ex FLOTUS, extremely well educated, successful, and rich. Thoughts and prayers as she deals with these tough times... 😒

“Low grade depression” lol. Easy to feel slightly less depressed during the pandemic when you have munni hunni

This is nothing less then a coordinated effort to undermine the President. Dump on POTUS, media ,far left zealots,the Obamas’, Democrats and those that are bent out of shape that the man is doing a wonderful job for our country. Your lies won’t elect Biden.

Puleeeeze!

You and 60% of the country.

She's not alone! I think we all have this to some degree. I know I do!

Maybe she should leave her husband I bet then it would go away...

meet2firstlady

Grow a pair of balls. Oh, that's right. You already have a pair.

She’s not the only one!😕

Why is this news?

Doesn’t come close to how many of us felt while her husband “ran” the country for 8 years

Ditto that. Same here.

Because she knows the Durham report is about to drop!!!!

She ain't alone!!

It must be tough being rich, famous and full of such things as bologna, crap and hatred for the President.

Lol! Who cares?

Ditto

Lol!! Who cares!

well i have major depressive disorder and i blame her

Ain’t we all

Me too!

And her husband facing charges of treason.

Wow, lots of kool-aid drinking, empathy deficit nasties out today. 😑

She depresses me

Same

She’s not alone.

Who is not dealing with some form of depression? All people are in a flight and fight emotions. We’re in survivor mode. Our challenge is to control what we can. Would help if we had someone with knowledge to lead with positivity and a plan to survive Covid.

The Obama's leveraged his presidency to become very, very wealthy, so maybe Michelle should lighten up a bit. She gamed the system pretty well. She's down for the revolution as long as she can continue to use her 'former president's wife' capitalism.

Wah, wah, wah. Mike needs a drink with the guys.

For people who care, seeing the world as it is now hurts deeply. It has been 3.5 years of darkness and sliding in to hell. Please, dear god, vote blue on everything in November. Republicans are the scourge of the earth.

Same here, though I think it’s more than low-grade.

She probably needs a bigger house with a different view of the ocean.

Add climate change and that’s how I feel!

She gives many people indigestion.

From her mansion in the Hamptons.

She is not alone

oh, feel so sorry for rich, privileged former 1st lady having to live such a life she has before her !

Are Democrats causing low grade depression amongst the black community?

Right there with you, MichelleObama Mine started in late 2016...

Every day I wake up thinking, 'Wtf is Trump gonna do today?' And every day it's something worse or more unhinged than the day before. I still don't get why any American supports him.

I didn’t know how much I needed to hear this! Thank you 🙏🏼 MichelleObama Michele Norris

I don't feel sorry for her. She has two beautiful homes. She's richer than most Americans. She's not quarantined. Come on man... she's been out on speaking gigs and such. She has friends. I think what might be bothering her is all the Obama corruption that is coming out

She is not alone in that respect. I wish her well

Same

Sure she is...

Aren't we all.

so is everyone in the world. I was jut telling my neighbor this yesterday. 2020 = Low Grade Depression. Thank you First Lady for keeping it real as always.

she should be the VP, Biden is hopeless. She can use helps from her husband.

Especially the latter...

Poor thing - such a rough life.

Aren’t we all

Aren't we all?

Big same

But aren't you NPR? Because if you aren't..then THAT'S a story to print. Ms. Obama isn't saying anything we ALL haven't been feeling for the past three years.

Me too

She say anything for attention. She can convales in her $10 million home on Martha’s Vineyard.

I don’t think she is alone.

To blame the President’s Administration for your depression is fair... and not a political move at all. Also glad to see she’s launched a podcast to help pay for that estate in Martha’s Vineyard since speaking engagements for the two have become a strain on their cash flow.

Same

Anyone who isn’t depressed right now is either delusional or well-medicated.

In actuality, it’s this.

Me too😢

Me too.

Get. In. Line. MichelleObama I try to stay strong for my family, but it feels a little bit harder every passing day. I pray now simply for a small light at the end of this dark tunnel.

Me too Michelle 😔

I can appreciate that.

It'll get worse because ObamaGate ain't goin away.

I LOVE MichelleObama and I understand what she means. I think more than depression, I’m saddened and disappointed to learn of all the hatred and racism being hidden u see the rug. The demons have been unleashed and it will be a battle to get them back in the bottle.

Prob bc she and Barry are corrupt and are going to prison?

Michele Obama is out of touch with America. She is an elitist who doesn't know what real struggle is. Go deal with your depression in your Hampton mansion you cooky old broad.

*he’s

So... who cares? Talk to someone that weas already depending on a paycheck to make it week to week and now this!

And she struggles as she imagines she is relevant

🌊💯%

What is wrong with her expressing herself about having depression because of the quarantine due to the pandemic? Millions of people across the country are depressed and had cabin fever.

You've got lots of good company, unfortunately. Just cannot wait until that dimwit is out of the WH and we can get some real changes made.

I think we all are.

Same

I'm sure Obamagate information coming out everyday hasn't helped. I would be depressed too.

She is not alone.

NPR!! We all are! America needs a DOSAGE of November 3rd STAT!!! VOTE!!

Same. 😐

Me too!

Same.

I think she'll cope with the FirstWorldProblems she described.

Yes, I hear Durham's investigation is creating a lot of depression within the Democrat ranks.

Poor soul, so sad to live in a huge house house! Let's trade, I want to have that problem! BarackObama MichelleObama

I think we all have minor depression due to the tRump administration

Awe. Are we supposed to feel sorry? I'll save my concern for those who are loosing everything due to the lock down and those who are having property destroyed and looted by the 'peaceful' rioters.

🤣🤣🤣... Or maybe because she has to support a mega racist for president Biden!

All completely normal reactions for a normal person dealing with the insanity at play in this country at this time.

Absolutely. Me too! MichelleObama

Who isn't suffering from some sort of depression at this point?

Nah, she's depressed because of ObamaGate.

LOL. I’d be depressed too if multiple US Attorneys were looking into my significant other’s lawless administration. Weaponizing our IC against a political opponent and getting caught is nerve wracking

Ugh what a freakin wimp !

At least she's rich.

We’re standing with Michelle and being our best adult selves as we cope with the three biggest problems in America, currently.

Same.

Living in their (2) $8 million dollar Mansions they bought after Obama left the Whitehouse... Awww poor 'girl'

Thank You for your disclosure Mx Obama. You model an example of truth telling and its’ ability to motivate, galvanize, and make change!! ♥️❤️♥️

I'd take low grade.

Despair is bubbling right beneath the surface for millions of us. Esp as we watch decent countries get back to health and prosperity.

MichelleObama We feel you, Lady.❤️🤍💙 and we love you.

Stop the presses. Michelle is a human being. Next.

What is she so sad about!?! Being too RICH? Missing her concierge service at the White House? Barak sleeping in another room in one of their palatial estates? Hmmmm....🤔

Girl, same.

Truth is Coming , biggest Con artist in America’s history . ObamaGateAintGoingAway

Seriously if you are not struggling with depression and/or anxiety right now there is something wrong with you.

We all are.

You n me both sister

It’s important for people to hear the frank discussion of a black woman’s experience with mental health. I’m grateful for Michelle Obama’s openness. I hope she & the rest of us find strength in healthy coping mechanisms and the hope that, this too shall pass.

realDonaldTrump is living rent free in her head , The are meds for TDS

Completely get it.

Could be because of who she is married to

Your husband getting CAUGHT illegally spying on realDonaldTrump and OTHERS will do that to a person. Obama is the most corrupt President of all time. ObamaGate

Maybe this will help

We all are!

Generally, transgender people are depressed. Very sad.

Are you sure it's not because of this incident?

I think we all are. Virtual hugs!

Obamagate must be getting to her

If your depression is low-grade, are you even paying attention?

Yes, I'm sure her unemployment status and her access to any and every thing her heart desires is sooooo stifled right now. And I'm certain her giant house is super uncomfortable to be quarantined in too. She sure knows how it feels for all the little people out there.

Totally relatable, I too deal with depression with a full staff (constantly asking me if I'm ok ) and a beautiful view in Martha's Vinyard 🙃

MichelleObama - you are not alone. 💕 Together we can 💪🏼 We got this. Thank you for speaking out and identifying what so many of us have been feeling for years. 💕💪🏼🙏🏼

I am right there with ya, Michelle Obama!

Also maybe she found out that her husband spent $65,000 to order hotdogs

Aren't we all?

Lol. Good.

She is all of us!

Depression is a real illness. Low-grade depression sounds like a bad day and a reflection of present reality. Hope her moody blues improve. Wish you well Michelle!

No everyone realizing Barack Obama is going to prison and will find another husband, and everyone finding out Michelle is actually Michael.

No shit. Welcome to reality

Translation: 'Ultra rich, super privileged chick who HATES the United States, is slightly depressed because she is forced to stay in her MILLION DOLLAR mansion on the picturesque Atlantic Coast.' FirstWorldProblems AllThisForAFlag Princess IJustCant

She is all of us.

She is definitely NOT alone. It’s kind of her to tell us we are not the only ones, and that none of us are immune to these feelings.

honestly, same

SAME!

She gave many many people low-grade depression for 8 years.

So am I...

I feel her. Me too.

Ditto.

Me too!

I hear ya MichelleObama I think we all understand where you’re at on this one.

Aren't we all.

Did it's penis get snagged I'm it's panties?

Maybe stop subscribing to the party destroying the country aka- democrats. Oh and tweak your hormones...

JoeBiden please hear me!!!! Pick MichelleObama we need her!!!!!

That mirror is a bitch huh Michelle?

It's a shame that's one problem affirmative action can't really fix.

We’re all Michelle

SHE KNOWS!!!! TRUMP IS GOING TO WIN!!!! TRUMP2020MAGA!!!!

Isn’t she a multi millionaire?

as are we all

Aren't we all Mrs. Obama? Lets vote to change this in Nov. everyone!

you and everyone else

gotta wonder what your media really finds important in this world and why

ShesNotAlone

Same here. Where's the story on me?

Has she tried alcohol?
