Lunar: Thanks for helping me identify what's causing added anxiety in my life. This is the most dramatic election process I've been involved with ever. On my way to work I drove by some sign wavers on the corner who were supporting the same candidate as I do and it brought tears to my eyes. It felt bizarre to think that I cared THAT much when I never have in the past.
The good news is that there will be changes either way, but they will be gradual and not overnight. The campaign is about ideas, but the fate of the country is not left to just one person... there are checks and balances and others involved too.
I've not watched the tapes so can't offer advise (yet) but you might consider watching your thoughts about this anxiety and be careful to not make it more than it is (comparing to death, for example).
DeeDee, I'm so sorry for you loss. We're here for you.
