Related: About this forumToday I realized that my anti anxiety medication might not be strong enough for the next 2 days
It feels like I'm in the 'Pit' with the Pendulum swinging over me, and the Sword of Damocles is waiting its turn.
My NP did give me something to take when my anxiety gets so bad that my heart is racing/pounding. I'm about to take it.
If not for my kid cats, I'd be a completely melted down wreck. It's not quite 6 but I'm pretty sure I will be heading to bed within the hour. Not sure how I will get through the next couple of days.
I know I'm not alone in feeling like this. It's the end of the world as we know it, and I DON'T feel fine. (Sorry, REM)

Be good to yourself. Come help me sort fabric. I'll teach quilting.
Anything to cheer.

Not much of a a sports fan but I am a Michigander so, yea, GO LIONS!!!
My kid cats have been swarming me so I have that distraction. Especially from Merlin. I'm beginning to believe that he needs an exorcism.

I am dreading Monday, but I refuse to completely give up on this country and all the truly good people in it before anything has even happened yet. I am going to cling to the people and things I love and do things I enjoy for as long as I can and worry about whatever comes up whenever it actually comes up. At least that's my plan. 🤞🍀

(3,508 posts)We can all get through this together. Give the Kit Kats some extra snuggles. You are surrounded by love. Do the little things that feed your soul. Sending love, hugs and more love to you. In case you haven’t heard there was a huge March in DC today. Even if we weren’t there others are saying This Is Not OK. Massive crowd on the Mall! It was a beautiful thing to see. We aren’t alone! 💗💗💗🙏🏼💐
