No more news…
Had to switch to cartoons.

I've had enough.

Good move!

I hope the cartoons work for awhile.

In the last two nights, I've been troubled from the news that comes onto Facebook. I've been deleting some of these posts. I might have to stop looking at Facebook for awhile, but that's where relatives communicate.:confused: BF:hug::hug::hug:

Oh, dear!

Sorry.

I understand about family.

Maybe check FB less often and only stay for a few minutes.

I was trying to get a brief summery of the news on NPR news on the computer, and not the TV news.

I heard on NPR news that our president is going to try to make a compromise with Schumer, and try to repeal, and replace Obama care again.

This is scaring me again. I don't know what to think. BF:hug::hug::hug:

What you heard is probably partly true.

But we all hope it will not pass. It will have to go through lots of
obstacles first.


Even if Congress does something, it can be undone with a new Congress.

The Democrats will not make a deal to REPEAL the law, only fix it. They have been very clear about that. I think only/mostly the moderate Republicans will work with them, but that should be enough to make sensible/positive changes to the law :hug::hug::hug:

Does anyone know if there a way to get rid of the news posts on FB?

You can "unlike" and "unfollow."

Check to see if you did either of those.

This type of news triggers a type of worry that's like the panic attacks that started hurting me in my early teens. I can't seem to get it out of my mind when it happens. It's sort of a doom feeling. It lasts for a day, or more. It also may be connected to my OCD delivering a one, two punch. What ever it is, it grips me, and scares me. Our politicians seem to be heartless at this time. The News media doesn't care about us. They just want a story. BF:hug::hug::hug:

I am sorry you are struggling friend. I wonder if there are any new OCD meds on the market?...Perhaps it is time for a change???? Ask your doctor or therapist. Maybe you could goggle new meds?
