Therapist and Patient Cartoon - Humor in Mental Health Care #1806806 (License: Personal Use)

This black-and-white cartoon by Randy Glasbergen shows a therapist attentively writing notes as a patient reclines on a couch, delivering the ironic line: “There are billions of germs, bacteria, and microbes living on my body… but I still get lonely sometimes.” The drawing uses minimalist linework and expressive character design to highlight the contrast between biological abundance and emotional scarcity. It captures a poignant yet humorous truth about modern isolation.
