news related : FLORIDA KERRY SUPPORTERS MEET FOR GROUP THERAPY

[+] serious ballot by herzog
created Mon Dec 06, 04
Twenty John Kerry supporters met for their first group therapy session in
South Florida Thursday, screaming epithets at President Bush as they shared
their emotions with licensed mental health counselors.
The first of several free noontime therapy sessions at the American Health
Association in Boca Raton was designed to treat what mental health
counselors have dubbed Post Election Selection Trauma (PEST).
If I had a cardboard cutout of President Bush, and these people wanted to
throw darts at it, I would let them do it, Robert J. Gordon, AHA executive
director, told the Boca News after the session. Its no joke. People with
PEST were traumatized by the election. If you even mention religion, their
faces turn blister-red as they shout at Bush.
Although the meeting was closed to the press, AHA therapists obtained
permission from participants to provide an anonymous transcript to the Boca
Raton News.
Im scared, said one man. Democracy is at stake and nobody is rising to
protest this president.

. . .

Do liberals tend to be crazier than average folks (notice there weren't groups like this under clintons 8 year reign no matter how much the right hated him) or are they right to be so terrified?

Yes, they're nuts
No, they're right
democrats are nazi assclowns

COMMENTS:
If we were talking typical candidates, I'd say it was extreme.

But a Bush win ...? I can't honestly fault them.

Lol! That's so funny! I nominate herzog as exterminator for B&W PEST control.

Okay, on a serious note now, shouldn't we all be suffering from PEST because, let's be honest here, no matter what one of the two asshole republicrats was going to win? That is the serious scary tragedy.

Those liberals, eh her-blog?
Maybe Bush should screen everyone for a mental illness to find out for sure if they're all crazy. Then when he finds out that, yes indeed, they are mad liberal Dukakis hugging moon maidens, he can lock them up in jail and provide them with work, propping up the collapsing American economy.

I think we'd all be better off if these people were deported to canada. It would raise the level of sanity for both countries.

by herzog on Tue Dec 07, 04 9:33am [+]

Who would you persuade to do your dirty work, her-blog?

by cretin_slap on Tue Dec 07, 04 9:53am [+]

Why not the jews? They seem to be in on a lot of conspiracies.

by herzog on Wed Dec 08, 04 3:06pm [+]

herzog, this shows you're an ass -- some people suffer from depression, and that shouldn't be ridiculed. I suffer from depression.

Plus, how do we know for sure that Kerry lost Florida? There's no paper trail, so we'll never know, and considering Bush has a history of stealing elections...

Counciltucky.
Are you taking an SSRI?

by cretin_slap on Thu Dec 09, 04 4:17am [+]

CT: if a person suffers depression because their guy didn't win the election, lost by quite a bit actually, then yes he is an idiot and deserves to be mocked.

Even more so if you actually pay someone to assist you in being a whiny sore loser.

by herzog on Fri Dec 10, 04 1:19pm [+]

I'm not an expert on antidepressants -- I'm taking Lexapro.

And herzog -- depression isn't something to be mocked. It's a serious disorder and can be triggered by anything (yes, including election results).

I'm surprised that, with the depression I suffer, I didn't take the results of the election really hard. I mean, I took it pretty hard -- I was employed by the Democratic Party, and I worked hard to help the Dems win -- and rightly so.

But herzog, you research your points -- research depression and tell me what you find. Belittling depression is like belittling cancer.

by xxxxxxxx on Sat Dec 11, 04 3:18am [+]

Funny how depression only seems to manifest in first world nations, and then only among those with the time and money to afford counseling and medication . . .

by herzog on Sat Dec 11, 04 11:13am [+]

Don't fuckin' change the subject, herzog.

If you researched depression half as much as you stretched truth and logic to defend the Republican party, you'd realize it's a legitimate medical problem.

by xxxxxxxx on Sat Dec 11, 04 1:21pm [+]

Of course it's a legit problem. Same as ADD.

And like ADD for every 1000 people diagnosed and treated for it there is perhaps one who actually needed it.

by herzog on Sat Dec 11, 04 2:10pm [+]

You've also no doubt noticed at this point that there is no analagous group for conservatives. Why is that? Conservatives are the ones who live in fear all the time, at least that's what the dems say. And they've lost plenty of elections, and have plenty of animosity for democrats.

Perhaps democrats just don't tend to be as mentally stable as other people.

by herzog on Sat Dec 11, 04 2:14pm [+]

^^^I will ignore this comment and address the one before it.

I have to disagree with the one in every 1000 people analogy -- yes, there are some people who overdramatize and don't actually have mental problems. However, there are several people who go undiagnosed who could use antidepressants.

by xxxxxxxx on Sun Dec 12, 04 1:36am [+]

Lexapro is an SSRI, Counciltucky. Basically, your body maintains its own level of Serotonin. Fuck about with it and you will pay for it. Your body knows more than you do about how much serotonin to produce. SSRI's are known to make some users actually feel more depresssed, even suicidal in some cases. Please stop it, man. Human beings are going to experience depression, but you have to get over it on your own. Then you can grow. Come on. You know it makes sense.

by cretin_slap on Mon Dec 13, 04 6:26am [+]

My body does know more than I do -- but so do doctors. The problem is, in terms of the human brain, we still only have a primitive knowledge of how the brain works. It's all guesswork.

by xxxxxxxx on Mon Dec 13, 04 4:59pm [+]

All in all, I think this would be more appropriate for likely former Howard Dean supporters.
