In the season 5 short, Waiting, Spongebob is waiting for a toy, and when it comes Patrick accidentally breaks it. And Spongebob says he’s ok, but after a few seconds, he snaps and starts scolding Patrick. Even as a kid, I thought this was an odd moment.

There was an episode called “Happiest Memory” (correct the name if I’m wrong) where Spongebob does his best to give Squidward the best moment of his life, or happiest memory. But Spongebob keeps failing. Eventually, he tries to give Squidward a birthday party, but none of the guests Spongebob invited showed up, so he fills the entire venue with paper-mache models of himself. When Squidward sees this, he goes ballistic, tearing all of the paper-mache SpongeBobs into pieces. Squidward then exclaims that that is his happiest memory. The weirdest part about that last scene is Spongebob’s reaction. Anyone else would be horrified at this event, but Spongebob sheds a tear of joy. Patrick and Spongebob are always oblivious as to Squidward’s real attitude towards them. But this is too much. Squidward is destroying models of Spongebob in front of him!! Anyone would be terrified if they were in Spongebob’s position. He knows no fear with Squidward...

Okay, so here’s a little kind of theory thing I have: So you said something along the lines of, “What if Spongebob’s parents didn’t notice it because something happened to him?” Well, ever notice how spongebob is more of a kitchen sponge, while his parents are more like actual sea sponges? We also meet Spongebob’s uncle, who was yellow, and a bit on the loony side, and his cousin, who went to jail. What if there is a genetic psychological problem in the family? What if it slowly gets worse going down the generations, and Spongebob’s parents knew this, but took it more so as worse than it was. All of the Squarepants family seems to be in a minor to severe state of ignorance or stupidity, and Spongebob was particularly worse, but not yet insane, but then he met Patrick and he broke, his combined genetic mental disorder and the stress from being a friend of Patrick made him in a state of blissful idiocy. Or an alternate theory based off the one above: What if Spongebob was the first Squarepants to not have this disorder in generations, but he still broke because of Patrick? And no one notices because they expected him to have the Squarepants Gene? I don’t know, those are just my theories. I don’t really have much evidence to back them up, but it was fun to think of.

In the episode "The Curse of Bikini Bottom" (the sister episode to "Squidward in Clarinetland"), SpongeBob and Patrick are turned into ghosts by the Flying Dutchman.

This feels more like a Squidward theory than a SpongeBob theory

[@horsepowermultimedia]

Squidward's crazy moments can be highly linked to Spongebob's personality.

[@kenechewkuk.l8707]

On some occasions you see Mr. Krabs being extremely exhausted and depressed, (usually about money, but whatever) could this be some sort of depression? Maybe he also has a fear of death, because there are a few episodes of pure anxiety of old people and death (can't remember the episodes) he also had an episode where he begged the green ghost guy (can't remember his name) to not die. He is also a compulsive liar, on many occasions he lies to his employees and I think he once lied to his own daughter. Heck, in one of the episodes he tried to teach SpongeBob how to lie. So Mr. Krabs could be a narcissist, a compulsive liar, death anxiety, possibly depressed and obviously greedy. I don't know if this would be important, but I thought I would say it. It is certain that Pearl is adopted, because even if Mr. Krabs had a whale wife, a crab and a whale wouldn't be able to reproduce. Mr. Krabs has been fine with traumatizing his rival (and old friend) to the point of making Plankton suicidal by dressing up as Pearl, who plankton is scared of. Squidward could possibly have extreme anxiety or paranoia, because sometimes he has nightmares about Patrick and SpongeBob, possibly implying he is absolutely terrified of them. Mrs. Puff could be a psychopath, because (even though it's a kid show) she has planned on killing SpongeBob in car games. Mrs. Puff also hates SpongeBob, but unlike squidward, she tries to hide her hatred for SpongeBob. I don't know what that could be, I just decided to note it. Mrs. Puff has also said she prefers being in jail to having to be around SpongeBob, and has a mental brake down and rips faces off police officers, and that infamous scene where she sits in a jacket with all the walls padded becoming SpongeBob laughing at her. There is a scene at the end of that episode where it keeps on going through episodes of it happening again, which means she could be dreaming, or she is having a psychotic episode. It is possible that Mrs. Puff had always been in that insane asylum, but all the episodes with her in it could be imagination. On another note, I personally think that season 9 and upwards have gotten better than the episodes after squillem returns, but that is just my opinion.

[@oddvegan9797]

Alex Bale (a KZbinr who has some very very good Spengebob theories) has a theory where Mr Krabs killed Pearl's mom in a war against the "normal" sea concious life, and then realised she had a daughter who was evolved like Mr Krabs and most of the Bikkini Bottom residents, so then he decided to adopt her. He theorizes that Mr Krabs uses Pearl's mother's dead body for the Krabby Patty, and that he might be raising Pearl to end up with the same purpose.

[@tragedyplustime8271]

Krabs absolutely suffers from a major depression, created from both his miserable childhood (not the one in Kamp Koral, that one is new canon) and his traumatic experience in the navy. His obsession with money is one symptom, he romantisizes money because he remembers his childhood when he could barely eat. However, what most people don't understand is that what Eugene really seeks is control over others to feel more powerful. Him selling SpongeBob's soul for 62¢, his abuse of animals like jellyfish or Gary, his staff mistreatement, it all appears to merely seek money but it also gives Krabs the satisfaction of knowing that others are below him, which is a coping mechanism for his powerlessness during both his childhood and his navy days. We see that Karbs absolutely gets a kick out of scamming children and even poisoning health inspectors who dare scam him, and the only people he spares from his tendencies are Ms. Puff and Pearl for obvious reasons. Also, him abusing Sheldon in One Coarse Meal was this, a power play. Squidward likely has PTSD originating from him being the victim of SpongeBob and Patrick's obsessive tendencies. Ms. Puff is implied to be a criminal who moved to Bikini Bottom and changed her name. I recall a theory that fishermen killed her husband (seen in a one-off), and she was wrongly accused. She seems to have developed paranoia, which has led to her developing kleptomania (she has stolen things like SpongeBob's diary) and some bad impulses. This is amplified because of SpongeBob's faked incompetence (yes, it is faked, he subconsciously fails his driver's test despite knowing how to drive because he fears taking responsibility) landing her various times in jail, which has led to pure hatred of SpongeBob and people she considers lesser to her, like Patrick. This is why she bonds easily with Krabs.

[@Zellafy]

Spongebob do have moments where he’s diplomatic and rather mature. But they become less and less as time goes on.. ( i actually like spongebob’s diplomatic, “ voice of reason” personality a lot more... whenever you get to see tiny bits of it)

[@spaceysystem6642]

Like the one episode where Patrick and Spongebob are taking care of that baby scallop. Patrick kept coming home late and never helping Spongebob take care of the bivalve and at one point Spongebob became more mature and actually "real" and full on seemed to lecture Patrick to the point of frowning and actually seeming quite angry thus showing he does have that more serious and mature side to him that he doesn't truly seem to have in these recent episodes. Meaning that his sanity is probably already gone.

[@Marshemillow]

[@o_o-037]

Like starfish, sponges can also clone themselves asexually. Is it possible that Spongebob is the main sufferer of multiple personality disorder? Living in multiple universes with characters who are slightly different in personality, but not so much that we would be able to notice? I mean, Spongebob IS the main character here. There are instances where he & Patrick forget their own birthdays only to be reminded by the other. In the episode where Patrick thinks he's stolen Spongebob's donut, Spongebob tells him at the end of the episode that the donut was his and the previous day was Patrick's birthday. And in the episode where Spongebob is waiting for a Kelpo cereal prise to come in the mail, Patrick comes & reminds him half way though that Spongebob just missed his own birthday party. But what I believe to be the smoking gun, is the episode where Spongebob tries to be in 3 places at once. He has to celebrate Patrick's birthday, help Mr Krabs assemble a telescope to see an anomoly, and has to attend a science presentation by Sandy at her tree dome in front of a bunch of scientists. At the end of the episode, Sandy reveals to everyone that her new invention is a machiene LITTERALLY MADE TO CLONE PEOPLE! And clones Spongebob twice to show the scientists he can now complete the 2 other tasks with Patrick & Mr Krabs that he was failing to do throughout the episode. What if Sandy created clones of everyone including herself which would explain why the timeline is inconsistant, and why we never see 2 copies of anyone in her house in any episode? It would also help explain Patrick & Spongebob's personalities. Maybe clones are subject to neurological degenerative disorders, which is why throughout the seasons, many characters just snap for no apparent reason. Is Sandy a secretly mad scientist?

In terms of Spongebob going crazy, here’s what stands out to me- In the episode “Gone” Him “imagining” his *fucking boat* is his friend and communicating with him when the Bikini Bottom leaves for national no spongebob day Not from a particular episode but spongebob NEVER uses his reading glasses anymore. Why? If he needs them to read we should be seeing them, but he never seems to read anymore anyway. Btw his glasses first appear in episode 3 when he meets sandy. As per spongebob dropping in maturity after he literally loses his mind in the Squilliam Returns episode, Spongebob used to act like a man sometimes with adult interests. In the early episodes it seemed like he liked sandy and wanted to impress her and also To drop being subtle in the “Your shoe’s untied” episode he’s getting turned on by a dancing anemone on TV, supposedly "looking for the sports channel." but as an adult it’s obvious what he’s watching. In later seasons, Spongebob’s mature interest in relationships is non existent and went from that to wanting to date a fucking *cheesburger*

what could also be another strain on spongebobs sanity could be the amount of time he stays at work, there was an episode I dont remember the name of but spongebob is told he has too much vacation time, so he has to take time off whether he wants it or not. and the rest of the episode is about him trying to get into work without krabs noticing so he can continue working, to the point where he kidnaps patrick and makes a costume of him to trick mr krabs into believing patrick is still on the job. that episode shows that spongebob clearly has an obsession with his job that is beyond detrimental to his mental, if not physical, health, but also that he is clearly spending far more time working than is safe because of a level of addiction that is similar to the horror stories that they tell you about withdrawal from illegal drugs, and spongebob having similar issues when he is told he cant go to work shows even more problems in his mind.

[@12DAMDO]

i have a spongebob theory for ya sandy never left bikini bottom so she can do her research on spongebob and patrick... there are a few sandy episodes that show she's putting them against each other just to see what'll happen... maybe she puts up with them (and invultrated their friendship) just so she has a closer look on her research... why else is she always joining crazy events whenever there is a special episode? like, she obviously know some of these events are insane but she joins anyway.. you could say she's just "extreme" BUT she only was extreme back when she hasn't befriend all of bikini bottom yet... once she became a well known figure and a friend of the majority she started doing ONLY sane events... unless it's an event where the main cast is all together...

[@ethbeatthem4836]

Well in the episode "Stuck in the Wringer", "Dumped" and "Have you seen this Snail" Spongebob sanity become more realistic and maybe he chooses to be the way. One reason might be bullying after he was bullyed from his Cousin Blackjack from the episode "Blackjack," and in "The Bully" as well, showing that bullying was a problem for Spongebob and might be one of the few reason he keep to his imagination, Squidward was teased and most likely was an out case growing up. Looking more into Squidward Character I question if Squidward fearing becoming like Spongebob and try to keep away from being like him, in "Breath of Fresh Squidward," Squidward becomes like Spongebob and act the same way as Spongebob which was being Bliss and Ignorant like you stated. So Looking at Squidward Character, as we seen in early Spongebob episodes like "Jellyfishing" Spongebob love Jellyfishing but might not be the best at it and one of few times in "Jellyfish Hunter" have Spongebob showed he can catch jellyfishes in a large amount, only other time he have done that after is to impress someone like in "I'm your Biggest Fanatic" when he was trying to prove himself to Kevin C. Cucumber, rest of the time he normally get zapped or tries to befriend them, Squidward also have something similar to that which is both is Art and Music as it's never turned out that good or sound bad to others, it's not his talent but he prefers to tell others he's a master of the Clarinet and a Professional Artist when all his artwork looks like himself and his Music is off Key with only a few times when Spongebob Helps out or in a bit of Rage he end up making something good that people love/ like. So maybe you can compare these two to see some similarities, so maybe look at what make Squidward tick and what makes him so angry and miscible that the only fun he haves is when he being competitive with Spongebob or Patrick, and when he loses his mind as before he had Spongebob around, he was calm, but Spongebob Triggered something that makes Squidward not just at Spongebob, but himself as well, maybe with so much Lust, it can turn into pure Wrath.

EthBeatThem Sqiudward lost his ability to play the clarinet in "Bubble Stand" after he learned how to blow that giant bubble that carried his home and exploded causing his hearing to be off. He has not played in tune since.

9:02 "though he isn't sick or high, he's crazy." I don't know why but I love this line so much.

[@asiafuller1373]

I think I see where you're going with this. You mentioned that all of the characters in the show probably went through something traumatic. I think something bad may have happened to the small town at one point. If you don't know, bikini bottom is based on bikini atoll, which used to be a nuclear bomb testing area. This might explain why they go mentally insane and start to lose the grasp of reality. In the spongebob movie (the first one, and better one obviously) when they go down into the canyon, Patrick and spongebob start singing and dancing with the bigger, more deadlier creatures. We all know that wouldn't really happen if they were to go down there. So maybe spongebob is so out of it now that he can't interact with anyone, and what we see is what's left of his mind trying to hold on to his "friends". If they even ever were real.

[@baker9754]

So spongebobs friends are dead and every thing is giong on inside his mind that is why everybody only has one personality like mr crabs being greedy because that is all spongebob remembers about him

[@TheTrueAltoClef]

I have a couple of interesting things to think about, it'll be a long comment 1. The famous episode 'Pizza Delivery' is notewothy: I think this whole whacky adventure might give a clue as to how squidward goes insane and loses touch with reality. It starts with squidward kicking the car back into action and the car driving off: illogical, but somewhat realistic in the spongebob universe. Then we see them waiting for the truck: the truck itsself is a weird appearance, something slightly too random for the show, note that squidward is tapping to the rhythm of spongebob singing because of boredom, but also him giving in to spongebob. The famous 'Krusty Krab Pizza' song is him trying to ignore Spongebobs insanity, but it allready has taken a toll on him, as the tornado seems like this is one of the 1st events where Squidward loses touch of reality. The final push of him to fight it is when Spongebob says moss leads home, and he doesn't trust him. But as everything starts small, so does his drift into insanity, with the completely absurd event of the ride home on a massive rock. Further evedence of Spongebob being unknowingly behind this is that he directly/indirectly caused this: he drove the car. He wanted to wait for the truck. He sang the song, indirectly leading them offtrack to the tornado. Him saying moss leads home, lead Squidward to believe that he is yet again home. Him ultimately controlling the rock home. The whole episode provides a glimps into how exactly Spongebob turns Squidward nuts. 2. The reason why everyone in the town acts weird (and might provide extra explanation to your spongebob theories) can be explained by a fan theory: Bikini Bottom is actually a real place, not to far off the coast of Hawaii I believe. This place is where the Americans tested just how strong their nuclear bombs were during the cold war. The Bikini Bottom in Spongebob would be in the present, and all the weird actions of the inhabitants, and their human-like abilities (like fully working economies) might be the result of radiation poisoning. That it 'settled' so deep into the town, that even the minds of the folks are getting poisoned by radiation. Maybe Patrick has it the worst...

[@sydneygrace3745]

And they might have been smart like Sandy, but she is a land animals and wasn't poisoned. Interesting theories !

[@ghostbird4104]

That’s the point

[@Crox101]

The only time Squidward properly broke down (I think) was in the tiki episode, there Squidward cries under a chair wanting to live in a world of peace and relaxation.

[@catherinesearnshaw]

I know I'm late but @theorizer there's an episode where spongebob, Patrick, Squidward, Mr Krabs, AND Plankton get something called "mimic madness" where they start acting like other people and forget who they are. Try watching the episode it's crazy. (Great video by the way)! Edit: You also see squidward in SQUIDWARDS eyes, begging to be "let out". I just thought that was a little odd.

Also just to add to your patrick story, in one episode when squidward puts up electrical fences and accidentially shocks himself his personality changes to a grumpy and angry attitude to a happy and joyful nature like spongebob and at the end he shocks himself again and turns back to normal. Maybe this could be more evidence........

[@Ykcdiamondrex]

Maybe Patrick got into a major accident and changed his personality.

[@Ykcdiamondrex]

Or maybe you can use this for your squidward theory IDK

[@lpfan4491]

spongebob and patrick also turned grumpy and when spongebob wasnt grumpy,he still acted like squidward would have(of course,its a big letdown that someone just ruined your day,but he overreacted).so maybe spongebob and squidward have the opposite side of the same problem,squidward is too dependant on reality while being a looser while spongebob doesnt need to be in touch with it at all and is a winner and once they get into the other side of the spectrum,they just ragequit the situration

i think the event that caused this was him being bullied by his cousin. in the episode, Blackjack we learn SpongeBob has a cousin who used to beat him up when they were kids. while the episode portrays him as a dangerous psychopath, he was only sent to prison for littering and is about the size of a insect. so it might have been that or something else in his childhood that screwed his brain.

[@InvitedRhino683]

OH OH OH WAIT WAIT! I got a theory on what might have been the severe trauma! So, ya know all the characters in Bikini Bottom are all fish except Spongebob, right? Maybe as a child he lost a friend to a fishing rod! Then he just snapped and still is an immature child today! Any thoughts on my theory?

[@that_objectguy]

In one of the episodes Squidward asks "Were you dropped on your head when you were a baby!?" Spongebob causally responds with "Squidward! ʰᵒʷ ᵈⁱᵈ ʸᵒᵘ ᵏⁿᵒʷ???"

[@tonibernard3365]

The episode where Squidward is Songebob’s art teacher, is showing us,that we should not critique others with natural talent because of jealousy, or because you think they do not know better.

[@whatsername3566]

I got a good theory! There is a theory out there that bikini atol (were spongbob takes place) got nuked and thats the reason why everyone in the show is so human like! But i got a add on, what if the reason why patrick has the personality disorder is because the nuke. And sandy came down to test the creatures and disided to stay because she knows that patrick may get more personalitys! What do you guys think

[@grayblackhelm6468]

Øcto Đerp I think this theory is about ten years old.

[@emscrapposting5749]

Spongebob hasn't always been too happy, in the first episodes with the first writer before he quit after the first Spongebob movie. So I think the "trauma" Spongebob experienced was when he and Patrick literally died in she'll city. Idk, just my take on it Edit: I meant Shell City

[@blazeorbitmoon1068]

I'm pretty sure that Bikini Bottom used to be a normal town full of normal fish until the nuclear tests on the Bikini atoll. That's why Sandy is studying *this* town and not any others. And fish from outside of town seem more normal.
