Told my psychiatrist today [View all]
that if Trump wins in November, and it looks like he will make good on his threats of being a dictator, I don't know what I will do about 2025. I told her I wouldn't want to live in dictatorship. That I had learned too much about what happens in them while getting my history degree.
She said she and I are going to be talking a lot between now and November. She said we can all just ask Canada for Assylum but I don't think Canada is going to want that.
I told her I am going to hold on till November, and hope like heck Biden wins and gets a Dem-Majority, but if that doesn't happen I am not sure I can promise anything past that. I am still going to try and find when my Italian grandparents were naturalized, because if it was after my Mom was born I maybe able to claim citizenship there. My preference was Ireland but my great grandparents were already in US when my Dad was born so I don't qualify.
I came out of Catholic grade school with permanent emotional damage from the bullying, beatings, and belittlement from the other kids and a few very mean teachers. I really don't think I could handle something far worse without breaking completely.
