Mental heath, abuse, politics 

Between the trans military ban and the pardoning of Arpaio, I'm having a really bad night.

One of the traits of my anxiety disorder is that I often feel as though I'm being physically beaten and abused. Really bad tonight. >.<

I was in defense for almost 5 years, and this is *incredibly* devaluing. It fucking hurts like hell. >.<

I served on the civilian side and wouldn't compare my experience to a full service member, but I still have mental scars from that. >.<

And Arpaio? Every time I see the name Maricopa, I'm terrified. >.<

Hate to even ask, but does anyone else get that phantom physical abuse/being slaughtered thing where they can almost visualize and feel things?

@mawr "It's not fun" felt so absurd that I started laughing hysterically. XD ;_; *faceplant*
