My anxiety level went up every time I turned the news on and saw what don the con got away with that day. Even spilled over into my mood throughout the day. I honestly lived in fear that we would have a tyrannical government. I wasn't even relaxed until the ceremony was over and Biden was our president. I read the crazy things the Trump followers had predicted would happen at the inauguration and even though I didn't believe them, I just felt better knowing we had a compassionate and caring group in the White House.
