You really have to balance yourself with #politics and staying informed; yet also staying sane.
I just went by an early polling place and only republican signage.
8 days and I pray this nightmare is over. At least some of it.
Trying, but after helping a friend on a state assembly seat, I have skin in the game.๐
@slapout
We all do; but you are especially invested now. Good for you!
Sorry, you're right, everyone does.
One reason I've been a bit lower keyed on the site lately is I don't want to add to the angst of others.
Ended up in ER today with heart rate at 150. PT therapists called ambulance. Battery of cardiac tests over 4 hrs. No heart involvement. Referral to cardiologist & script for Xanax which I refused.
Itโs happened twice in 48 hours. Todayโs news of Racism Rally at MSG must have pushed me over the top. Should not have read the details.
I need it all to stop immediately.
@CinnamonGirlE @LnzyHou @slapout
Yeah, what Cinni sez.
Please take care, Linds. Turn off your phone, shut the computer, go for a walk, bike ride, etc. It'll be there when you get back, ya know.

So hopefully you don't see THIS cuz you're taking a break...๐ค
@InUnfunky @CinnamonGirlE @slapout
Eating grapes & thinking about bed.
@LnzyHou @InUnfunky @CinnamonGirlE
Grapes are good. Please take care.โค๏ธ
You would have been proud of my PT therapists. They immediately took BP, pulse, ox sat. They called 911.
@LnzyHou @CinnamonGirlE @slapout hugs to you Lindsay. I hope you get it all sorted out.
@LnzyHou it is important we stay informed. HOWEVER. This timeline is completely bizzare and when its harming our health just to witness?
Nope. Tap out.
Wanna see my fav pics of when I rescued bunnies?
@LaurelGreen @LnzyHou @slapout
Yes! And yes on the bunny pics. ๐

@LnzyHou
Sweet friend, please consider the treasure you are and do not waste your health on shit. Compared to your spirit, the whole mofo country is shit. Not worth it. Please start acting gentle towards yourself STAT.
@publickovacs @CinnamonGirlE @slapout
Thank you sweetheart. I thought I was. But two episodes 48 hrs apart would indicate otherwise.
Sweet & tough Neville is my main man. ๐

โฅ๏ธโฅ๏ธ
@publickovacs hard agree. Well said! @LnzyHou @CinnamonGirlE @slapout
@LnzyHou @CinnamonGirlE @slapout
Please take care of yourself โค๏ธ
It's hard right now but we all need to come out the other side.
They will not destroy us.
We are stronger ๐ช together.
Meditation ๐งโโ๏ธ is helping me.
@LnzyHou @CinnamonGirlE @slapout Please take care of yourself, Lnzy. I hate that the stress of this election is causing so much anxiety for so many. Take a break from the news for now and concentrate on your own health and well being. Sending you big hugs!
@LnzyHou @CinnamonGirlE @slapout
We all need to try extra hard to remember to hashtag anything political for several days. Take care of yourself dear @LnzyHou! โค๏ธ
@LnzyHou
That sounds awfully scary.
Thumbs up to your PT therapists.
I do hope this is the last time this happens.
@LnzyHou @CinnamonGirlE @slapout
It's been a rough few years. I feel it too. Pop up some filters and stay away from the news. Chronic stress is a killer. Please take care of yourself. I've added time to my workouts to counter balance the added stress, but I also take breaks for days. It's helpful and I'd suggest it to everyone.
You can't pour from an empty cup, as the old saying goes ๐ฉท
@LnzyHou @CinnamonGirlE @slapout
Well, shit, girl. My boy sends love. Hang in there and breathe slowly, we'll hold the fort for you.
@LnzyHou @CinnamonGirlE @slapout your love and light and empathy is legendary. You have been here for so many of us for so long and I personally am so grateful you are here. You have been the moral support I have needed many times.
Please give yourself some of that legendary empathy and self care. Itโs okay to look away for the sake of self preservation. Itโs okay to shut it out so you donโt shut down.
Love you, @LnzyHou
@LnzyHou @CinnamonGirlE @slapout Lindsay I am sending you healing calming living karma. We will all make it through this horror. ๐ชท๐๐ณ๐
@LnzyHou @CinnamonGirlE @slapout
I hope you are better today, Lnzy. Step back from politics
@JanetZumba_FalPals @CinnamonGirlE @slapout
Am better. Christmas shopping at a Big Lots going out of business after my PT appt.
Nothing heals me like 50% off.
@LnzyHou @CinnamonGirlE @slapout
๐ I hope you are fully recovered
@slapout
No need for sorry. I certainly wasn't upset. Just acknowledging we all need to be involved.
Emotions are high every where I think. No matter the side.
We all need this very long running drama to stop.
