Its 4:30, i'm still awake, sort of. I can't sleep, I'm angry and I'm depressed. I need to go to bed but I'm afraid Trump will do something stupid while I'm asleep. Of course, he's done stupid things while I was awake. A choice. Hmm.
I'm sorry. I wish I'd seen this earlier. Hopefully you've gotten to sleep.
The bizarre situation we find ourselves in is overwhelming. The most each of us can do is stay informed and ensure that anyone we have any influence over is informed enough to make the right decision in November. Trump is an unfortunate historical hiccup that is about to come to an end. There may be times where you have to turn off the news for a period in order to cope with the absurdity of this experience. Know that it is temporary and we still have the opportunity to recover.
Maybe I can sleep with one eye open?
@PondartIncbendog I have noticed that you have a good sense of humor, thank you.
There is more and more research relating sleep to depression, both too much sleep and too little, I believe. If I didn't have a sleep disorder, I would be working very hard to structure my day so that I got in those necessary seven hours and only seven hours, every day. A cumulative problem called sleep debt develops if you do not.
Anyway, I hope you are looking after yourself in other ways too because you are worth it!
