I am going crazy! How is every one else holding up?

[La Lioness Priyanka]

greeting du'ers...how are you feeling today? could you be more nervous/anxious?

[Webster Green]

1. No!

I'm a fucking basket case!

[La Lioness Priyanka]

12. so am i

i am too nervous to do anything...and the mess of my personal life helps me naught!!

:scared:

[Misunderestimator]

42. Delete (I seriously have no idea how my post ended up here)

When I was responding way down below here...

[molly]

2. I feel very-very-very confident for us

I just heard on CNN that Kerry works from morning until after midnight - * works from 9-5 - interesting - I think he knows he's toast.

[Elidor]

3. I am confident...and have chewed my nails down to the bone

I'm about to lose it.

[jrthin]

31. Well I'm not gonna

chew my nails cuz I'm hanging on with them.

[dennis4868]

4. Nervous as hell!

Cant focus on my work or anything else...my stomach cannot take any more of this tension....tomorrow cannot come soon enough...i live and die with every poll...and now this new Michigan poll makes me nervous (although it is probably not accurate when they give Nader 12%).

[NEDem]

5. Starting to lose it.

I planned on walking a couple precincts today, but its raining so I'm sitting here with all this energy. I wish it would stop, I want to get out and walk. It will help me keep my sanity for the next 48 hrs.

[fizzana]

6. You've all been diagnosed with PEAD

Pre Election Anxiety Disorder.

There is a cure though - work like hell to GOTV and trust that we are right and because we are right we're going to win.

[MuseRider]

7. Sick/excited/sick/excited

I am a true schizo right now. I feel so good about Kerry but so bad about how this is most likely to pan out. Can't sleep, can't focus, stomach hurts, head is crazy but my heart feels wonderful knowing that this will and should be over. I just do not want to go through the crap that is most likely coming.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

16. my tummy has been hurting too

and i am so nauseous!

[pdx_prog]

8. Happy election eve!

My stomach has a BIG knot in it.....been there since 2000...:)

[GOPNotForMe]

9. Ugh crazy here too!

I woke up this morning and TOTALLY though it was Tuesday! Argh, what a letdown!

[Cloud]

10. I more freaking day man

I am going to vote at 7 am right when the polls open. I feel all wide awake and energized. I wonder how much sleep I will get tonight.

[huskerlaw]

15. Confident!

I'm singing the song "Tomorrow" from the musical Annie all day. You know the one "The Sun'll Come Out Toooomorrrowwww..." Of course, that's doing nothing to alleviate the butterflies in my stomach. I honestly do have a good feeling about it though and simply cannot wait to fill in the little circle next to Kerry's name tomorrow.

[sundog]

11. I've got really good vibes - -nervous yeah, but I think we'll do it :)

[La Lioness Priyanka]

17. i think we'll win too

but if bush wins i really cant fathom how we will deal with this at all

[Wat_Tyler]

13. I'm cool. The tide turned last Monday. I know it, you know it, we all do.

Kerry 51 - Bush 47.

[Itchinjim]

14. I'm doing OK.

Been hitting the Xanax pretty hard for the last couple of days though.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

22. ran out of my paxil.

[Beware the Beast Man]

18. Strangely calm.

Either way this turns out, I think I'm prepared.

[redqueen]

19. On pins and needles here

I'm hoping tomorrow's win is by a big enough margin that I can settle down a bit.

[asjr]

20. For some strange reason today I am subdued. It is tomorrow

when I will have to be tied down.

[VivaKerry]

21. Completely and totally wiped out

4 long years that should have never been. And now, 1 day away. This is the longest day of my life!

But I am hopeful. Very hopeful!

Hello...just joined; I read the board, but decided I might want to post and read in the coming days and saw the rules in case of chaos tomorrow and the following days. So, now I am VivaKerry!

[La Lioness Priyanka]

25. hey! welcome to DU!

[VivaKerry]

35. Thanks for the welcome!!!

I pray that this election runs smoothly - that we will have a clear winner.

[faithnotgreed]

33. viva kerry!

welcome to du. were glad youre here....

[VivaKerry]

36. Thank you so much!

I don't normally post on message boards, but after reading that DU may have limited access, if needed, I don't want to be left out in the cold when/if there is a call to protest and the such.

[faithnotgreed]

57. way to go. were all in this together.

[terrya]

23. Excited, but confident.

Kerry 52
Bush 48

Kerry - 283 electoral votes (the guy at electoral-vote.com has it right today) Bush 243.

[ZenLefty]

24. I'm fine, thanks.

It's a Buddhist thing.

Sorry you're going crazy. :hug:

[La Lioness Priyanka]

27. on the bright side i was not too sane to begin with!

[ZenLefty]

29. Well, that's good then.

Sanity is vastly over-rated. :crazy:

[Willy Lee]

26. The past 3 mornings I have woken with a start

still half dreaming and thinking "My God today is the day" Then as I wake up I realize it is only Saturday. I have never before in my life been so worked up.

[Willy Lee]

28. Worked up over an election that is. nt

[Lavender Brown]

30. SO anxious... I want tomorrow to just get here already

[La Lioness Priyanka]

32. hey. i cant wait till wednesday either!

[belladonna]

34. Going absolutely insane here

Hasn't helped being out of work for the past four days either, I'm WAY too hyper to stay home that long. Tempted to start drinking now and pass out early tonight... anything to make tomorrow get here faster :crazy:

[cmf]

37. Hopeful

I spent both days this weekend canvassing for votes, and that helped my nerves more than I anticipated. Both the fact that I was doing something positive for Kerry and that I got a mostly positive reception. There were a couple of duds, but overall, most people I talked to had already voted for Kerry or were enthusiastic about voting on November 2.

[Misunderestimator]

38. I am feeling more OPTIMISTIC than I have felt in FOUR YEARS!!!

After going to the Kerry rally last night, and after reading all sorts of great articles this morning, and after having a great talk with an 18 year-old guy at the rally last night who said that all his friends are voting for Kerry and none of them have anything but cell phones, and after my boss FINALLY said today that he is actually considering voting for Kerry (he had already decided a few months ago not to vote for Bush), and after my extremely pessimistic (ex-Republican) father told me this morning that he FINALLY believed that Kerry was going to win (and he's in Texas)... I feel on top of the world! I think that it is going to be a shock and a huge win for Kerry!

:bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce:

[La Lioness Priyanka]

40. i am hoping some of your optimism rubs off on me

:bounce:

[Misunderestimator]

54. I didn't say I wasn't anxious... but I'm OPTIMISTIC...

Here's some more optimism to rub off on you

:bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce:

(I had posted this mistakenly up above on a post I hadn't even read... the DU gremlins are out in force today... and on edit... the gremlins in my own head apparently... shit I guess I am anxious)

[La Lioness Priyanka]

55. i just dont want to misunderestimate the evil that is bushco

[belladonna]

44. I'm feeling optimistic too

But I just can't seem to rid myself of the nervousness and the little voice in my brain that keeps saying they'll steal the election if it looks like it's going to Kerry :scared:

[Magrittes Pipe]

39. What do I care? I will be ducking frunk!

:toast:

[bif]

41. I'm nervous as hell

Can't wait for all this to be over.

[ronnykmarshall]

43. I'm climbing the walls

I so glad I'm off Tuesday.

I won't relax until I see 270 + for Kerry.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

45. you should see me...i am a real wreck!

[geniph]

46. I'm jumpy, I'm snappish, I'm intermittently exultant...

I'm basically optimistic, but oh my lord, am I ready for this to be over. I'm tired, among other things - I don't feel as if I've really concentrated on anything else since Paul Wellstone was killed. For some reason, that's what really galvanized me.

I am ready for this long nightmare to be over. I don't want to live in the world of The Handmaid's Tale.

56. Gnawing on my cuticles. What a bad habit! Also...

I am crafting handbags. I have a business and a website.
In the last two days, I've finished 3 bags. I'll be posting them to the website soon. http://zeebagsvt.biz

I'm also working on a chapter in my novel.

I can't possibly read student papers... can't concentrate.

And that's...what the king is doing....tonight!

Kerry on!

[MadHound]

58. Doing quite well, thank you

Hope this finds everybody else doing well. I realize that it is a nerve wracking time, but buck up! It is the last final push, and we all must do all we can to get out the vote. We will win if we get out the vote. All indications is that the Bush support is going to come up short, and Kerry will win. We just have to get out the vote, and monitor the polls for 'Pug shinnanigans, and we're home free. Twenty seven and a half hours from now, and you can fall apart, but not until then.

We've got work to do, so let's go out and do it. Besides, if you lose it now, you won't be able to enjoy it when we win.

[arcane1]

59. if I were any more nervous/anxious...

I would explode...

there is far too much going on already, without dealing with the spectre of 4 more years hanging over my head :scared:

despite my general annoying optimism, I can't say I have a good feeling about tomorrow, no matter what happens

I'm glad I'll be with friends tomorrow night

at least, some friends... :(

[Dzimbowicz]

60. Hanging in there
