It's going to be something, watching this next Congress even try to uphold laws and pass New one's?! Good article this morning ☕Thanks,Sam, and will reStack ASAP 💯👍
Thanks Sam, this helps. For the life of me I don’t understand how and why Biden and Garland stand by and watch the beginning of the dismantling, in real time. The old phrase: I’m going to tell you what I’m going to do, then tell you I’m doing it, then tell you what I’ve done. I feel like we’re watching the Reichstag burning and we know how that turned out.
What a different world we would live in if corporate media had focused on the psychological & real world impacts of a sociopathic POTUS. Even if it were just a “mental health moment” on cable news. Gaslight is one of my favorite movies with sinister Charles Boyer & Ingrid Bergman. Joseph Cotten is great in his pre-western film days. Since the “election” of Trump, I have been saying to all of my patients, “Self care, self care, self care.”
I did not realize until my early 30’s that things I’d experienced and was experiencing were panic attacks. Since then, I’ve learned as many tools as I can gather to deal with ongoing anxiety.
Thanks for the new tool! Spock’s advice is spock on! My anxiety about the incoming administration has been quite high and during this whole election process I’ve frequently asked myself, am I thinking about or looking at this correctly? What if I’m wrong? I realize now that this is self gaslighting.
Great piece, Sam. I’m still recovering from the election, as I’m sure a lot of folks are. Yeah. I need a mantra. A little Xanax helps too. Just sayin. 😎
I can't thank you enough for this, Sam. I am reeling from the sheer torrent of gaslighting that I have experienced and continue to experience. It is very challenging to remain sane in the midst of it and I am fighting every day to stay grounded and focused on the moment and what matters in the moment. Your insights are a balm to my troubled soul.
Sam, thank you again for all the logical explaining. It is SO VERY HELPFUL!! It is such crazy times for bad things happening and we feel like we have no control over it. We only have control of ourselves. And they’re even trying to take that away from us.

I learned my calming mantra from Star Trek Voyager’s Tuvok (also Vulcan):
“Turn your attention to the white light that is your breath.”
✨Thank you for such comforting advice, dear Sam ! ✨
