    I have really bad anxiety too and I've had some terrible experiences with anxiety attacks. I'm still struggling to live my life in a way where I don't experience anxiety very much, and I think most of it has to do with dealing with problems that arise in my head the moment they come up. Sometimes I'm in denial or they seem so minimal that I don't even realize that I'm affected, but eventually irritability creeps up and full-on anxiety attacks occur. Also, some therapy has helped me a lot because when a professional gives you guidance, some of that worrying is put to rest. Hope that helps : )

    Personally, I just think it's sad that opportunity for real debate, real decision-making and real turnaround with economy are being lost in the rhetoric and name-calling. There are some very viable solutions to these problems IF Americans were willing to talk about them. All of the arguments about socialism and anti-Americanism that keep coming from the conservative quarter are arguments largely based on political, economic, and social theories which have never been tested and when put into limited practice, haven't turned out very well. However, we have some fairly brilliant models for governments which take care of their people, help their people avoid financial crises, and which still encourage business growth in Europe that we could be following, but the stigma of “socialism” (real or imaginary) prevents us from looking into viable solutions.

    Personally, when I look at things that HAVE WORKED in the past and see how they are applicable to our current situation, “it's socialism” and “that's not American” are not good enough arguments for me. Moreover, the general ignorance or blatant dishonesty Republicans have regarding history (particularly FDR's handling of the Depression) is so repugnant and offensive, that I can barely keep my countenance. Memories are certainly short, or at the very least selective.

    It's very frustrating to watch all of this going on while normal people suffer. You've got unemployment as high as 23% in places, you've got home prices down to four figures while foreclosure rates skyrocket in others, millions of retirement-aged Americans have lost the vast majority of their retirement in the stock market, and generally speaking, a lot of people who could benefit from some honest conversations about economics that produce results. As long as we continue to attach our economic policies to a rhetoric that is far too narrow and short-sighted, and which more importantly has a history of failure, we won't have any honest conversations and we certainly won't see results. All so that a few fat, white rich guys can get votes in two years.
