The House is officially in therapy.
In the weeks after the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection, which left at least five dead, lawmakers and their staff in the House of Representatives are seeking out mental health counseling.
Paul Tewksbury, director of the House Office of Employee Assistance, told lawmakers in a Thursday hearing that his office has provided 760 counseling sessions since the events of Jan 6 — something he called a “significant increase.”
Tewksbury said there had been around 3,000 contacts between his office and the Capitol Hill community in the first half of 2020.

“There’s a lot of stress and anger going on. … We’re validating feelings, whatever they are,” Rep. Gerald E. Connolly told the Capitol Hill newspaper. “Interestingly, the people I think who were struggling the most are the people who physically were not here.”

May they live in fear and have nightmares every night and need to drink themselves into semi comas to go to sleep.
May they not want to leave their homes due to those fears.
May their Shrinks/MDs give them the maximum doses of Thorazine and anti depressants for the rest of their miserable lives.
May sounds like a vehicle back firing cause them to fill their depends.
They were probably mingling with the Antifa mob...
They need to Resign from Congress if they are that FRAGILE!
More than once, my sister has said that she doesn’t about what happened on January 6th.
She cares about what happened on November 3rd!
This article is just another block in their “insurrection” tower.
These are the same ones that will vote to send out troops to war while they cower under their desks.
The Natives are restless.
Smart sister!

I call BS on this. Just part of the narrative to get out to the public.
No they won’t it was just part of the democrat plague plan.
“which left at least five dead,”
Still spewing that BS. Trying to make it sound like the demonstrators killed some people. Only one person was killed as a direct result of the demonstration and that person, a demonstrator, Ashley Babbit, was shot by a trigger happy guard (?). So again I say BS.
Not the Onion.
Bunch of lying little whiny attention demanding babies.
Guess the taxpayer gets to foot the bill.
Tewksbury? I hope he doesn’t start feuding with Lindsay Graham.
If they are truly traumatized, any chance they can be sequestered (locked up inna rubber room) until......?
Umm, I don’t have a test they might have to pass to get back out. Just leave them there.
And everyone of the emotionally Unstable should be RED FLAGGED IMMEDIATELY!!
Yeah and sent home never to serve again!!!
I did 8 different keyword searches, and Zip. I think it’s been scrubbed.
“Looked more like a mostly peaceful protest to me.”
With the exception of a couple of broken windows by ANTIFA, and sketchy deaths, it looked mostly peaceful and most people appear to have been let in by Capitol Police.
BINGO!!!!
