Question: Is any one else having anxiety about the election.? .?
I can't sleep or eat. I was in tears last night. I had to go back on medication for this. I am so mad at myself. I am a conservative republican but I am sure people on the other side are worried to. I just want it to be over. The only thing I can control is my vote.Health Question & Answer

Texasgirl there has always been anxiety associated with election years. It just seems to be the natural course of things. Why, people, by and large, are afraid of what that change will do to their lives and there is always change. Sometimes change is for the good sometimes it is not.
What makes this election worse is that there is no clear candidate, republican or democrat that really has the answer we are seeking.
We are the American public and we need help is our cry but none of the candidates has the answer nor will they ever.
Texasgirl there is only one place to turn for help during this messed up election year and His name is Father God. When no one else has the answer He speaks words of comfort to us.
Listen to this and let it comfort you.
God is our refuge and strength,
an ever-present help in trouble.
2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way
and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,
3 though its waters roar and foam
and the mountains quake with their surging. Ps 46:1-3 NIV
Texasgirl, having that assurance is the best medicine we can take. Take it often and let it fill your mind. Refuse to dwell on the gloom and doom that people and the media are selling..
One last word of encouragement it's found in God's Word in Phil 4:6-7
6 Don't fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. 7 Before you know it, a sense of God's wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It's wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life.

No, no anxiety about the election. But you are right, the only thing you can control is your own vote. I figure what will happen, will happen. We have survived 8 years of that idiot GW Bush, we can survive anything. Have faith in the American people. Don't worry, it will all work out okay - no matter who is elected. Health Question & Answer
