21. I have the same anxiety...

Jan 2017

I can hardly eat or sleep. I will be going to the doctor this week and get checked... I have never had high blood pressure but I am having anxiety attacks. I have been a seasonal federal employee for years and my future prospects might be in grave danger due to the agencies I work for, and that $1 income bs would sink me. I may have to go into the underground again... now that I have reached my 60s, I only care about not being locked up, outliving my aged mother and that's about it. I think everything I have fought and worked for is going to be gleefully destroyed before my very eyes, and I can't bear that. I'm close to tears on a daily basis and I am not an emotional type.

I suspect we are in for some really rough stuff coming to our neighborhoods soon and it will be ugly. Maybe a general strike is in the cards in the near future. I am currently in a safe place living in a self-sufficient house that has off-grid capacity that, at present I can afford. That may not last long but I can, at least avoid the masses for now. I have been avoiding cities for years and now I think I will be even more reluctant to go to one.
