Mine has been triggered since the election! I can’t count how many panic attacks I’ve had. Feb 25th watching pass the first BBB vote live I just sobbed. I knew what was coming and the tragic consequences of this horrific dumpster fire admin and congress assholes!

Same SM! It's been heartbreaking and panic inducing for sure! 💔 I've had to limit how much news I read or else I get really anxious

I have recently been watching dog grooming videos and home improvement videos. Both seem to help me relax. I guess bc they all have happy customers. Not 100% sure why. I am doing my best to limit media as well. I take breaks for several weeks on end. I have 0 control and it only makes me feel worse.

I can relate to the feeling, friend 💔😓. It's tough times right now. I've just been trying to focus on fixing the things I can in my life and trying to laugh every day and cultivate good vibes like gratitude when I can. Can't always. ❤️

I remember the day Biden was announced as President and I cried!! I can’t wait for primaries and general election. Against all odds I still find hope that good will prevail somehow, someway, someday! Just keep hope alive sweetheart!💙💙💙

When Obama was elected, I felt the same optimism and I, too, shed a few tears of joy. I had hoped that his election might be an indication that perhaps America had come of age and that people might begin making judgements based on character and not on race or political party. It was a nice dream.

That was my first ever Presidential election! I was too young in any other election. I watched his campaign and cheered when he won. I also paid attention when our governor was convicted. I was from IL at the time. Obama was a breath of fresh air compared to the corrupt governor at the time.

Obama is directly responsible for making me interested in politics. Before him I thought it was boring and couldn’t care less about politics, economics, political science , geopolitics, everything that’s related and relevant. He made me interested in what was happening.

Yeah same Obama was my first election too! I remember how excited I was when I found out he won and the Republicans weren't gonna be in charge of Whitehouse anymore. After Bush Obama was big breath of fresh air.

I remember that day Biden was announced too! I actually have a memory of when he was giving his inaugural address I was driving at the time and no lie a bald eagle flew over me. And that like never happens where I live I never see them. You're right good will prevail somehow I believe that! 💙

Even in the darkness there is light 💙💙💙

❤️Yes!

Gotta say: I was VERY inspired by the way so many District residents made a swift, impromptu and ultimately effective intervention against an ICE "checkpoint" last night. Please know that more and more of our countryfolk are rising to our aid. Breathe, Elizabeth. We shall overcome.

It's TRUMP'S, MAGA's, ICE's fault. fucking STUPID, DUMBASS, IDIOTS 🖕 #FUCKTRUMP #FUCKICE #FUCKMAGA

My wife (who is not on BlueSky, and groks Anxieties) just looked up CPTSD for me (I've given up Googling, and eschew any and all cookies and similar tapdisbutton rabbit holes)... ...anyway, we're deep blue, and right here in lockstep.
