Say boss does 10 damage per turn. If you heal 8 points per turn, that means boss effectively does 2 damage per turn, and your effective HP is 5x what it would have been without healing. Heal 1 more per turn, for 9 total and your EHP is 10x. Heal 10 per turn and your EHP is infinity. Heal 11 per turn and your EHP is still infinity, no change. So that 10th point of healing was worth waaaay more than the 9th or the 11th.
The context as far as this meme goes is that he's mad and showing it physically. Whatever the reason is doesn't matter because we subvert it with the other text.
This is the narrative being established: We say he's chosen to be on a healing journey, and he might be learning the hard way what that looks like, going through the stages of healing, where anger is one of them. But that's not it yet, we also say he thought the process would be predictable, so he's actually either mad that isn't or is mad that we are noticing him having trouble with this. He would be even more mad to learn that this is a meme being shared on the internet and madder still that this whole narrative came up around it that could be true or entirely made up.

Is there context I am missing here?

Healing isn't linear and consistent.

Clearly. Is it meant like IRL?

Yeah this is a mental or long-term health post.

Yes, IRL. Like healing from emotional and psychological trauma. Probably... I didn't make the meme.

I know the meme I just had no idea what kind of healing was being referenced here.

Just healing. It all works the same because everyone's journey is unique. Thus it all ends up being unpredictable.

It always depends on how nice your GM wants to be. Some days you get the +4 charisma belt you need, some days you get MAD screwed.
