7. I think I'm just going to have to take a daily chill pill

The thing about having untreated anxiety for so long is that it's easy to fall back on old habits, such as not acknowledging it. I came from a family who just didn't believe in such things so I grew adept at suppressing the how I really felt. That became a habit that I didn't acknowledge until the last couple of years. Sometimes the biggest indicator is having nightmares, like last night. They always hit if, for 3 or 4 days, I think I'm fine.

I accidentally scanned across a headline about how furious the convicted sex offender is that his sentencing will not be dismissed, and how he's set on revenge. That triggered me. Unless a WHOLE lot of the GOP wakes up and/or pulls their lips off of his ass, I have no hope for the future. His cult is a lost cause. Even if they get financially slammed by his proposed polices, they will blame it on Democrats.
