Thank you so much. Processing is what I have been trying to find: so much fear, numbness, rage...

I’ve been in such a fog and am so sad, numb, scared. This was just what I needed! 🥰

Thanks for this. We'll be ok - there are too many of us not to be.

Shock, anger, disbelief, grief. What also makes me sad is my kids - putting in our yard sign, taking them voting, and then trying to explain why Kamala didn’t win to my 4 and 6 year old was heartbreaking. They need reassurance that we are sad but everything will be ok - but will it? How do we grieve when we need to be strong for our kids? Thank you

I'm still in the process of processing, and identifying some of my swirling emotion as grief is very helpful. I am grieving my (fictional) vision of America....the loss is so unsettling. Grieving is a very good description. glad to know about her work.

Thanks you for this. I’m also angry that we likely won’t see much of Kamala Harris again, since the Dems won’t give her another chance.
