My bipolar and anxiety are definitely destabilizing, and have been since the election. May we come through this time mentally and emotionally intact!

Thank you.

and just went to garden variety depression. No, I don't think this is part of your disorder, although beating yourself up over it is.

It was just a poor choice of words for a lot of people. Excitement might come later when more Trumpers wake up and smell the new Depression and the resistance starts to get YUGE. It's just not the right word for now.

It's not like we all haven't done that at some point. Nobody's going to hate you forever over it.

Users that just harass and harangue no matter how much you ask for forgiveness and explain yourself.

Those people can't be real. And if they're like that in real life, well... I'd ignore them there too.

If nobody listens the first time, then just walk away.

I know it's hard to do sometimes when there's a pile-on and you think it's unfair, but walking away is the healthy thing to do.

Trash the thread. Move on.
