I work in mental health and it was rough work day today. I am so glad I only had a few clients today. [View all]

One of my hardest days ever at work. I didn't have to work the day after Hillary's loss. I stayed home and ate my feelings. I wasn't able to do that today.

Almost everyone I saw today, their session went way over their allotted time. I didn't even bill for the extra time.
I know the hurt is still fresh, and will be here for a while.
What I heard from some of the young women, they definitely will not be having children.
Too scared for their lives, or don't want to bring children into the world to live in an oppressive society.

I don't know what the future looks like for mental health if the ACA is gutted. It is already under tremendous strain. The ACA requires most plans to cover mental health.
