This. And this post should really be moved to the health forum because it is more about anxiety. I have a teen member of the family who had a hard time getting out of bed yesterday because of the anxiety of the thought about the grim future of the country if Harris wins. It’s mental health. Yes, it’s my kid with anxiety issues.

OP, it’s okay to eat your kids Halloween candy every year.

LOL.

It is funny that a term conned its mother into thinking it has anxiety. Just another term excuse when they don’t want to do something as simple as getting out of bed. No wonder the world laughs ate the dependence of the US on drugs to function.

The mom here. Once again, I invite all of you to hop over to the health forum or even the special needs forum to discuss living and dealing with family members with debilitating anxiety. Really, it’s more about that than a discussion on politics.

Put the teen in the Army and cut the apron strings.

What an idiotic statement. Know nothing, fear nothing.

DP. When roughly 75% of my 4 kids’ friends ages 19-30 have been on anxiety medication since they were 12-14 years old, it’s time to wonder what the problem actually is.

People who don’t want to parent and create disorders in their children.

Maybe they just have some more modern treatments for anxiety instead of drinking a 12 pack every weekend like their parents did.

It's the MOST IMPORTANT election ever (version 2024), which will be followed by the MOST IMPORTANT election ever (version 2028) in 4 years.

I disagree. Trump has indicated that is is INSANE and will do insane sh*t. Why do you think it's just theatrics? He literally tried to overturn the election. If elected, he said he will:
- revoke licenses of broadcasters who disagree with him
- allow rfk jr free rein to 'do what he wants' with health dept including banning some (or all) vaccines
- has not ruled out nationwide abortion ban
- lord knows what to trans people
- raise tariffs hugely so everything we buy will be wildly expensive
- roll back any progress on this rapidly warming planet which will be irrevocable
- ban more books?
- become the king of trolls thus emboldening every internet troll to come out of the shadows and just fully troll in real life, empowered to be as racist, discriminatory and unaccountable as they possibly can bc their troll king will tell them every sh*tty thought they every had is 'ok' and 'they are right'.

that's just the beginning. our lives will change dramatically. that's why everyone is anxious.

You mean Trump can bypass congress and the courts to pull all of that off?

If that was true than Kamala can bypass congress and the courts and sieze all civilian weapons, give out universal healthcare, and make abortion legal in all 50 states one day one of her presidency!

Trump is capable of doing plenty of serious damage. all his lackeys and supporters cant always bypass the courts. Many of them have been convicted of crimes and served time and other penalties. It remains to be seen how much trump will get away with or if he will have more legal consequences to face,

Yes, I'm sure you have made an exhaustive inventory of the personal, private medical information of every single one of your kids' friends and definitely didn't just completely make up that statistic...

Maybe you don’t talk to your kids or their friends but I do.

No. I believe that there are more Republicans who care more about country than supporting their party's mentally impaired and morally corrupt candidate. I expect Harris to win by a good man margin.

I think some of you are going to be absolutely shocked and then crushed tomorrow night.

You will also realize (maybe) how much you've been lied to by the media.

Those of you who think the outcome of this election isn't going to directly impact your lives, and that you can just keep your head down and ride it out, are living in a much different reality than me.

I am extremely worried for the health, safety, and protection of the teenagers and children in my life who I love dearly. I am fearful for my industry that had havoc wrecked upon it during the last Trump admin and will be in for even worse if he wins again.

Of course I don't like higher grocery prices but that is a FAR less important issue to me. And btw, my taxes went up under Trump.

I'm very concerned that the Health Care industry is taking 17 cents out of every dollar in this country. BTW, that can't go on forever.

Have a nice day.

I think a Trump victory would be an existential threat to the country.

I already vote blue, but I’m wondering about your comment. Supposing Trump wins and our country collapses as we know it—what happens? Who’s in control and how do our day to day lives change?

Now that you bring it up, one of the things he’s very stressed over is the fear that the draft is coming for him AND his sister and that they are both going to die. Day what you want but fear is real. We keep discussing that he’s not going to die and the chance chances of that happening are slim but some of these teens are scared.

Go ahead and call names if you want.
