I can't fucking take it any more!

The suspense is absolutely killing me.... I haven't eaten anything all day. I'm sweating so much from anxiety, I haven't even peed all day.


I'm going to have a freaking heart attack.



Somebody knock me the fuck out until the race is called.



AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

2. I empathize.
I can't even sit still, my mind is racing and nothing distracts me from the worry. It's 2004 all over again, or it could be and that would be freaking devastating.

6. I feel the same way.
the time is moving so slowly today. I'm wanting to feel positive, but I still have that feeling of doubt. I won't be comfortable until I know for sure.

Can't swallow
Have been feeling on the verge of hyperventilating all day. Screwed up a lot at work. Had to do everything at least twice.

Ommmmm.

8. hahahahahaha!!!! I feel the same way, I just had to ask my 6 year old to
reassure me and give me a hug! It's chicken nuggets for my kids for dinner tonight! I cannot manage to make the chicken pot pie. I'm too unfocused and jittery. I still have to get the apple pie into the oven. The Sweet Potato is cooking right now.

15. Her's my advice: find something to do until about 8:30 pm Eastern.
I think we might have a pretty good idea then, after the Virginia and Ohio polls close.

20. Run to the local convenience store, get some snacks and some drinks and you will be fine. It will be
good to get out of the house for a few minutes. Order a pizza for dinner!

21. I had a mild panic attack on the way to the polls
I just kind of melted. It was like, what if something happens to me today and I never get to know how it comes out? Fortunately, I was able to suck it up and keep walking.

24. Do you have any benadryl?
Edited on Tue Nov-04-08 05:20 PM by GinaMaria
It's sometimes used as a sleeping pill. Non pharm options: Warm milk, ice cream, turkey and pasta. these can help you sleep for a bit. You do need to eat and especially drink water. Can eat something small? some yogurt, a piece of cheese something that will go down easy? Breathe deep (your brain needs Oxygen to help stop anxiety), call a friend, do something for a neighbor, create some good Karma. Go to the Obama web site and get a list of voters to call to remind them to vote. There is only so much you have control over. Sending you a hug. Focus your energy in a positive direction. :hug:

Can you go to a movie and just lose yourself in it for a couple hours? Take a warm bath, go get a manicure, a massage, or bake pies! I'd be happy to help you invent a whole new Obama pie. Start with the crust.... What kind of crust should it be?

25. BWAH! I thought I was bad
My boss said if I didn't "calm the fuck down" he'd slap me (jokingly people) I woke up today at 5:30, I just couldn't sleep, I'm just one big ball of nerves. And I think my clock is screwing with me -- I could have sworn I saw the big hand jump back a little. I need to stop staring at it.

26. Have a big slice of pie
and a bigger bong hit, if that is your way.

I'd throw down a little Blanton's if you have the means, as well.

28. First, pee. Then run up and down the stairs a couple of times.
Then drink some water. Eat something healthy. Repeat.

32. You must, at least, pee
Don't want a bladder infection.
Have a beer if it will help you pee.
