    Grippy socks are standard issue for all in-patients in most US hospitals because they prevent falls and the floor is nasty. Seriously please wear them during your stay.

    Oh wow, in UK grippy socks “totes” were a 1990’s fad. Great fit for running about hardwood floors as a kid.

      Those are grippy socks. They’re often given to patients when they’re admitted to hospital. Over the past few years they’ve become synonymous with being admitted to a mental health ward.

      The meme is saying that they’re afraid of being honest to their therapist because their therapist might admit them to a psych ward against their will.
