Elmo unexpectedly became a therapist for many people.

Elmo, the beloved “Sesame Street” character, recently took to social media platform X to simply ask his fans how they were doing, but what followed was unexpected.

This innocent question opened up a wave of heartfelt responses about not-so-great personal situations, turning Elmo into an unintended digital therapist for many. Samantha Maltin (Executive Vice President of Sesame Workshop) believes this points to the need for free and accessible mental health resources.

Elmo’s ability to elicit such authentic and deep responses from a diverse audience speaks to his place in the hearts of many, transcending the boundaries of a typical children’s show character.
