Damn. Beat me to it :)

My Uber reductionist explanation.

I get you scared. You vote for the cure to what I’m scaring you on.

Most people, except the very scared, don’t vote.

Republicans say “hell is coming unless you vote for me”, which gets people scared and thus voting

Democrats, “well try our hardest to build helpful systems that make the middle class grow again” … People stop listening and don’t vote…

That’s how

Fuck. 2020 got more people voting than any other presidential election in recent history and it STILL didn’t break 50% of legal voters.

I used to very frequently. (For about 3-4 months, 5-7x a week)

Don’t anymore. Wish I did

1. Admitting that I don’t have control over my symptoms.
2. Meds. Taking vivanse and wellbutrin in the morning and experimenting (with Dr approval) Adderall in the afternoon
3. Making sure I have some exercise as part of my morning every day routine (biking/walking on my way to work, going for a walk before walk when I wfh)
4. Getting out for a walk bike ride during the day
5. Talk therapy with a CBT pro
