I Am Not Okay with This is an American coming-of-age black comedy television series based on the graphic novel of the same name by Charles Forsman. The series stars Sophia Lillis, Wyatt Oleff, Sofia Bryant, and Kathleen Rose Perkins. The series was released on Netflix on February 26, 2020, and received positive reviews, with praise for the performances, particularly for Lillis and Oleff. This series follows the story of an emotionally turbulent teenage girl, Sydney Novak (Lillis), who discovers that she has psychokinetic powers that are triggered by strong emotions. As the series progresses she aims to gain control over her powers while navigating the complicated relationships of her life. She navigates the coping of her fathers death, an estranged relationship with her mother (Perkins), a blossoming friendship between Stanley Barber (Oleff), and her feelings towards her best friend and possible crush, Dina (Bryant).

Originally renewed for a second season, Netflix canceled the series in August 2020, citing "circumstances related to the COVID-19 pandemic".[2]
