I don't get it.
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.

Never heard or seen this. Where did that get synonymous?
No idea when it picked up, but my younger sibling refers to them as "grippy sock vacations"
