I go through a lot of political anxiety. There’s been a lot of nastiness in America lately, and I’m scared that will continue. I know that the party out of power will tend to pick up seats in Congress, but I get panicky about what happens if Republicans hold on to control.

I agree. Same here. So much anxiety with how topics and issues are currently😰

So how do you manage the feelings?

How about joining with other like minded people who are advocating for the issues you care about?

It's understandable when you have a tweeter in the white house shooting knee jerk reactions to comments like a petulant child, who has never held a political office or served the country in the military being in charge of his so called; ''My red button is bigger than yours'. That would scare the hell out of anyone, I think half the country is worried about what this lunatic will do or say next. These are legitimate fears that I think many many people all over the world have about this circus act in the white house. Your not alone, it's just a roller coaster ride with unexpected ups and downs right now. Just vote next election, this last election proves everyone needs to wake up and be aware of what can happen when apathy prevails. No politician is a saint, and none will be perfect, flawed human beings they are is a fact, just use your best information available from all sides of an issue and go from there.

Hey, I marched with a woman's march- about thirty thousand were there in this case- what a high! And I remember marching with about a million in the halycon days!
