All of the scenes mentioned were so good and important but Alex's meltdown was a pivotal moment for me. It made me take a look at myself and realize that my behaviors and the pressure I was putting myself under for school, extracurriculars, relationships, achievement, etc. - similar to Alex- were not healthy. Just two days before watching it, I had a complete meltdown in my car when my Dutch order was wrong. (I didn't yell at a worker or anything- just parked and rage cried for a moment over basically nothing) I went to therapy because I saw myself in that opening scene and though I rarely cried- and, for some strange reason, prided myself on scarcely showing emotion- I was in tears by the end of that episode.
So, if you are struggling like Alex was, do yourself the biggest favor and go to therapy. And if you can't afford therapy- start a journal. You are like a pressure cooker and you need to make sure that lid doesn't blow or you'll end up hurting not only yourself, but the people around you as well. I wish you the best! Have a great day and a wonderful rest of your week!

God I just never understand the hate for people with multiple languages! Insane! It takes A LOT to be able to do that!
When I lived in Europe I was getting internet for my place one day and I had a 8 year old translate for me to the workers. It was amazing and embarrassing. The kid spoke flawless English even though they were in their own country. Experiences like that really open your mind and grant the empathy perk.

Alexs meltdown and her conversation with the Psychiatrist hit me the most. Being the child who was constantly under pressure to perform well and always scrutinised if ever I failed, the feeling of not fitting in, being lonely and no one able to understand what I was going through made me relate to Alex so much in that episode. Modern Family is the best show. Period.

What should be on this list is learning that DD was a gas lighting narcissist. While most of her appearances were dark comedy to say the least, realizing that she was so selfish she tried to make Jay and Gloria's wedding about herself is a very serious thing on a family comedy. Her funeral was better than she deserved from the family she damaged so horribly

Under Pressure is one of my favorite episodes of the show because of how relatable it feels. Alex has such an understandable breakdown, learns a lot about herself in therapy, and then she and Claire have a great moment just by Claire showing empathy and realizing she should have been doing more!
Its a touching but powerful episode!

19: 53 This scene breaks my heart everytime. When Phil asks if Frank wished he had another son to take the up family business, Frank replies, You did take over the family business. Didnt you? Making life light, making it fun for everybody.

I love everytime Jay is a Father for Manny, especialy when Manny has a senior girlfriend who uses him to get back an ex, Jay consoling him in the end of that episode is amazing. Also Manny graduating is great.

When Jay cries, it always reminds me of when my Dad cries. Unexpected and out of nowhere because he puts on such a tough front all the way until that first tear. So, of course, I cry every time!

I love the scene where after Haley has the twins, everyone is in the room seeing the babies but Phil goes to Haley and checks on her. Its such a subtle moment but so sweet.

Jay asking Mitch if he wants to take a stroll at the wedding was Modern Familys Do it for Her moment. Even the toughest of tough guys had the waterworks that episode.

Grace is only mentioned in one ep (after her death) & never seen. Her family acting like they were close to her & devastated by her natural death is ridiculous.

The fact neither of the Dumphy kids were at the funeral still bothers me. Even Sarah Hyland was baffled they left them out of the funeral scene.

This is one of my favourite modern sitcoms, I love that they're not afraid to let their characters be vulnerable, especially the males.
