Political affiliation aside, just think about this.

These past two presidential terms, we have (and still do have) a geriatric person serving as the leader of the "free" world. Trump is nearly 80. A president is usually very busy, assumed to have a jam-packed schedule. There is a lot of moving parts and pieces, which can be overwhelming even for the average adult. There is great, bearing responsibility for a role of this magnitude. While there are many responsibilities that are delegated, there can be plenty of room for error or mismanagement.

Supposedly, the average life expectancy for a male in the US is around 76. Most elderly I have known have deteriorated around this age. Some military veterans who have aged have managed to maintain some mental sharpness. My former scoutmaster, who is now in his 80s and a former military veteran, has dementia and cannot even remember who I am. There are many risks, including a simple fall that can be devastating.

To me, common sense tells me something does not entirely add up.

Bringing politics back into the mix, yes, I voted for Trump these past 3 elections. Something just doesn't sit well with me today.

I think there is a lot of dire situations that are being shielded from the general public.

From what I can tell you for fact is everyone around me is experiencing immense stress and financial turmoil. Family units are deteriorating. Everyday essentials like food and shelter are squeezing people thin. People are very aggressive on the road. You can feel the squeeze and tension in the atmosphere. Chaos is becoming more obvious day by day. People have lost their ability to socialize and form meaningful connections.

I feel like I am in an alternate timeline of existence. Something is definitely not right.

I am struggling to handle mental stimuli. I have become a hermit. I am quick to get worked up, aggressive, and sometimes with violent tendencies. I can feel the stress in my head and body. I live in a constant brain fog and I can hardly process what people tell me. I am struggling to muster up energy or motivation to do anything. Everything feels like a daunting chore. Everything is expensive and I am feeling squeezed.

I am on disability right now in the meantime. Of course, when I was fired from my 25th job at the age of 30, I just went into this long-term burnout.

By asocial I mean you don't feel one of them, you find it difficult to relate to people, and social settings and interactions especially with unfamiliar people stress you.
