From T.O.S: Is anyone else having a REALLY HARD TIME coping?

Posted on 11/03/2004 7:55:02 PM PST by Partisan Hack

I apologize but I'm taking great joy from there misery over there. A few samples for your perusal....

I am such a mess. Physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually.

I had no idea this would hit me so hard. I feel that all my hopes for the future have been shattered. Evil, hate and greed are rewarded. Wrong is Right. Fascism will prevail. Not to mention increased terrorism, hate crimes, isolation from the global community, loss of civil rights, etc.

AND, we have to look and listen to the f**king Chimp for another 4 long, miserable years. I don't know what to do. I am really beside myself and almost feel like I am on the verge of a nervous breakdown.I am sick to my stomach and I feel like I am going to have a heart attack.

I started smoking again, I can't bear the thought of going to work tomorrow, and I really don't have much hope at the moment. I can't eat, I've cocooned myself in my bed all day and have avoided every phone call. Oh - and I broke up with my boyfriend. You are not alone.

My heart feels like it's actually broken and I am afraid to leave the house because I am not in control of the rage I feel, and fear that the smallest thing will set me off.

I always thought that things were never quite as bad as they seemed, and that Americans were mostly good. But I think things have really turned... they are perhaps even worse than they seem, and perhaps the American empire is entering its terminal phase with a lot of pain and suffering ahead.

It feels an awful lot like what I imagine Berlin in 1938 was like.

I'm so venomous right now, I swear I'm growing fangs.

I have a background of depression (mostly from my days of living closeted) and am worried that the funk that I am dealing with might go long term. I cannot let that happen.

To that end, I am going to continue to devote a good chunk of time with a couple causes, to keep me going.

If things get really tough, get a really good friend or family member and just let go.

My son didn't want to go to school today

and face the jeers of his 6th grade classmates in our predominantly republican rural community. I bought him a donut at the local shop and reminded him that we still have to tell people that the war is wrong, that the poor need an advocate and that our planet is not their trashcan.

After pushed him out the door I had to give myself the same speech.

That sums things up beautifully

"we still have to tell people that the war is wrong, that the poor need an advocate and that our planet is not their trashcan."

Of course, unfortunately, the Pukes simply don't think these things are important. I just got off the phone with a dear friend who keeps insisting Iraq had something to do with 9/11 and if we "don't fight them over there we'll have to fight them here".

This is how Bush wants you to feel and he's hoping you'll go away, don't go away, in four years time USA will still be suffering from his policies, the economy and Iraq will still be great problem.

As I see it, whatever they say, it isn't a landslide, almost half the American people wanted a change, there were people who didn't vote, which is unforgivable, they may rue the day they didn't and will be there next time, in force.

I hope that we will get a chance in 4 yrs. I am angry, but not sure who to be mad at. I feel like Kerry played us and took one for the team (s and B)with no intention of ever winning. I don't know where to turn I told my friend to take pictures of the trees and all the open areas of beauty around us now because it won't be their for long. I fear for our troops and the kids that are going to be drafted. I applied for passports for my family today just in case I need. I think Democracy died yeasterday in America I never wanted to believe it could happen. There are protesters here in oregon tonight. I am still in shock. I don't like the mixed up feelings that I have because I have no way of seperating them all.

Don't mean to sound trite, but I share your pain.

I had an appointment with my counselor today, and she encouraged me to not look too far in the future and the terrible possibilities it holds.

I managed to calm down and try to focus on the things that bring me some small measure of contentment. It is very hard--the more I hear about Tuesday's fiascos and the evil people who made them happen, the angrier and more frustrated I get. This is producing physical symptoms similar to yours. It's up to me to get a handle on this, I know, but damn, it's hard. Like you, I cannot bear the thought of looking and listening to Bush for the next four years. I have determined I will NOT do that. Thank God for remote controls.

I wish I had the words to make you and me feel better about all this. But I do not. All I can think to do is resolve to do everything I can to stop the fascist juggernaut that is speeding toward us. I must try, for my children, grandchildren, and all of us who share this planet.

This is a clear cut example of why communists are damaged emotional goods. To lie to the gay community and tell them that they are "normal" is a great mistake. Actually, the gays used terrorist tactics in the 1970s to reverse the American Psychological Association's position that homosexuality was a mental illness. These are very sick people and they need to be told firmly that they are ill and they should be treated for their bipolar illnesses and sexual dysfunctions. They should be encouraged not to have children. Mental illness can mess up kids lives. Wake up America before it is too late!

Check yourself into a mental institution. It's where you belong.

You taught him to say this crap in the SIXTH grade? Oh, that should make him a pariah in no time, good job. DOn't act surprised when he starts torturing small animals.

He must care for his kid though--he is bringing him up in a republican community...not among the downtrodden inner city democrats. Hypocrite!

This has been such a wonderful day, I hate to see it end. But then it will all begin again tomorrow, and they'll still be calling their therapists and going fetal in their beds. Oh this is more fun than I could have imagined. We really need to win these elections more often (although we aren't doing badly after all, are we?)

ROFL! Is this a real person or a cartoon cutout from Doonsberry?

Here's something to show I care:

1) Teaching your sixth grade child those things is a terrible thing to. You're making him into a nutcase with YOUR agenda. And I don't know how many sixth graders are political so if your kid is afraid of getting razzed in class...something's a bit..off.

2)Berlin huh? A little historical..oh never mind..anyone insipid enough to make that kind of comment is to dumb to actually research the nazis.

Scary people these. Real freakin' scary.

Oh and one more thing..fire the counselor..she should be helping you and she's obviously incapable of doing her job...

Hey Guys: Shut up for just a moment.

We won. There is no need to rub it in.

What's wrong here is that this gal is depressed with the way things turned out. Do you just want to dump on her or would you rather reach out?

To the woman who started this post, hang in there long enough for those of us on the conservative side to explain why we think the way we do. I am just a little weenie, give me a chance. We have a good reason and you won't be so down once you learn about it.

It's sad that woman even have custody of her child and consumes herself with hatred and malice for President Bush and Republicans.
I hope he survives her mental and spiritual illness.

"I started smoking again"
NYT headline: BUSH CAUSES CANCER!"

Thanks, that one gave me a good guffaw!

After reading the incredibly morose and moronic liberal rant of post coital, I mean, post election depression, I was well ready for a knee slapper!

I haven't seen maceman in a while but I believe he was a former fencing standout.

It was a nod.


I only saw a few matches but had a friend who fenced. At one of them, the epee or foil snapped and sprung up and stuck in the guy's (or gal's maybe ??) neck under the mask.....Ole Miss (78 or so)...bloody mess.

I think Vandy has a team here local. I wonder if VMI (another family school) does?

They do this to themselves! Jeez. I dont base my happiness in life on who is in the white house. America is more then the man in that office, the office is bigger then the man. If we could handle 8 years of Clinton. And their vision of this country is soooo warped and mostly a product of their imaginations. Half these people sound like they have mental problems unrelated to the election.
