The website's critics consensus reads, "With an ample dose of dark humor, Sick of Myself is intent on turning stomachs with its vicious satire on vanity in the time of social media, delivering a one-upping saga of egos gone awry.
[9] Bianca O'Neill of Time Out rated the film 5 stars out of 5, writing that "a perfectly executed black comedy accompanied by humorously viscious [sic] counter-culture commentary that cannot be overlooked.
"[12] Amber Wilkinson of Screen Daily wrote that "The only problem with taking things to extremes is that it can lead to there being nowhere left to go but, if Sick of Myself runs out of narrative road towards the end, there's still a decent quotient of dark humour along the way.
[14] Hannah Strong of Little White Lies wrote that the film "appears so one-note there's never any threat of deeper meaner or commentary on societal beauty standards and the voracious appetites of social media influencers.
"[15] Damon Wise of Deadline Hollywood wrote, "There are two very intriguing stories going on here; one is an irreverent skit on society, the media, and the celebrity of victimhood, the other is a tender portrait of a sad, lonely woman who'll do anything to feel seen.
"[16] Beatrice Loayza of The New York Times called it a "queasy satire" and a "perverse tragedy of folly", saying: "Putting aside the film's obnoxious social critique (a seriously unfunny gag involving a blind assistant comes to mind), there is something compelling about its particular brand of cynicism.
