Post Election Trauma therapy
WorldNetDaily ^

Posted on 11/11/2004 5:46:18 AM PST by Lee N. Field

From Worldnet Daily

Some supporters of John Kerry shocked by President Bush's victory in last week's election continue to seek out psychological help, prompting at least one mental-health center to offer free counseling through the end of this year.

The Florida-based American Health Association has released symptoms of what it calls "post-election selection trauma," or PEST, which include: feelings of withdrawal, feelings of isolation, emotional anger and bitterness, loss of appetite, sleeplessness, nightmares, pervasive moodiness including endless sulking, and being excessively worried about the direction of the country.

etc.

Unless these "more and more" emotional misfits are all
retired and living on their past laurels, their bosses should be about ready to give them one more thing to be depressed about!

All these people need to be loaded on a cattle plane to

Iraq for a weekend of shock reality. They will think

differently when they return.

Brit said yesterday that this therapy would be given "free" (read paid for by taxpayers) till the end of the month. You'd think with all the hurricane damage FLA could find something else to spend its money on. By the way, people who run to the counselor for every problem they have start this behavior in elementary school when they learn that going to the counselor's office 1) gets them out of class; 2) gives them someone's attention. It mitigates against learning to solve problems independently and permanently cripples the psyche.

It just goes to show how mentally unstable these voters were to begin with.

Rush mentioned that these people cannot stand to lose because they've never had to. It's no longer Politically Correct to keep score at anything when kids are in school, so they never learn how to lose, therefore never learn how to cope with not "winning."

I think they need to get a clue at a real life . . .
