You really have to balance yourself with 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.๐Ÿ˜œ

@slapout
We all do; but you are especially invested now. Good for you!

@CinnamonGirlE

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.

@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.

@CinnamonGirlE @slapout

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.

Itโ€™s happened twice in 48 hours. Todayโ€™s 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.

@LnzyHou @slapout you have to step back from it. You have voted. Now it needs to conclude in a week. Read, music, walks, good food. No more of this. You have to.

And I was going to ask who your PT was!

@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...๐Ÿค“

@CinnamonGirlE @slapout

You would have been proud of my PT therapists. They immediately took BP, pulse, ox sat. They called 911.

@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?

@CinnamonGirlE @slapout

@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.

@CinnamonGirlE @slapout

@publickovacs @CinnamonGirlE @slapout

Thank you sweetheart. I thought I was. But two episodes 48 hrs apart would indicate otherwise.

@LnzyHou @CinnamonGirlE @slapout

Please take care of yourself โค๏ธ
It's hard right now but we all need to come out the other side.

They will not destroy us.
We are stronger ๐Ÿ’ช together.
Meditation ๐Ÿง˜โ€โ™€๏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! โค๏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 ๐Ÿฉท

@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. Itโ€™s okay to look away for the sake of self preservation. Itโ€™s okay to shut it out so you donโ€™t 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. ๐Ÿชท๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿ—ณ๐Ÿ’™

@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.
