Stay strong. I love you.
9 years ago
I am so so very sorry for those of you who've already been so viciously hurt by your own families. Parents and loved ones you thought you could trust. Please try and separate yourselves from them as best as you can. There's always tomorrow to talk it out.
Please take care of yourselves today. Mental health comes first. This is a dark day for many many people. We are living in fear, emotions and anxieties are high. The wound is fresh, but we are strong. We can overcome. Allow yourself to mourn. Process and indulge in these emotions, because once you do so we can come out the other side level headed and ready to fight. Don't hurt yourselves now. Don't try and force things. Allow yourself the day to recover. Step away from the computer. Hug a pet. Kiss a loved one. Watch something that makes you smile. This is a terrifying day.
I love you all. This is extraordinarily painful. I left my two best friends yesterday in order to get home and vote. I am anguished that not only may that have been in vain but they are already facing very real danger. From people they rely on. From people they trust.
I'm not going to lie or back down from my feelings. I am going to fight like absolute hell. But for now I'm going to pull back and recoop. Self care and repair now.
Then we figure out how to fight.

this is wonderfully worded, thank you
Literally its advise that instead of fighting about it which A LOT of families did last night/today take a break rekindle yourself and talk about it tomorrow when things have simmered down and sunk in.
Its actually pretty great advise instead of letting our emotions do the talking and fighting?
