Treatment for Trump Anxiety Disorder on the rise

August 5, 2018 by Wayne Creed 1 Comment

What’s been called “Trump Anxiety Disorder” has been on the rise in the months following the election, according to mental-health professionals from across the country who report unusually high levels of politics-related stress in their practices.

The alleged disorder supposedly affects both Trump supporters and non-supporters, and is related to some of his policies and tweets, according to reports.

If the Democratic Party was a car. 

The supposed stress and collective anxiety is referred to as “Trump Anxiety Disorder,” however, there is no official diagnosis.

Washington, D.C., therapist Elisabeth LaMotte tells CBS News that the signs of the disorder have been increasing since the 2016 election.

She claims the symptoms mimic those seen in patients who were raised by a parent with a personality disorder. Those patients typically show behaviors such as “grandiosity, excessive attention-seeking and severe lack of empathy.”

According to published reports by clinical psychologist Jennifer Panning of Illinois, the disorder causes patients to feel “a loss of control and helplessness, and fretting about what’s happening in the country.”

Those supposedly afflicted by the disorder are also spending too much time on social media, the report said.

    Pretty incredible is all I can say.

    America the once great is melting down.

    One of the more public displays of the syndrome is detailed in The Daily Beast article “Jeanine Pirro Takes Shots at Whoopi Goldberg on Fox News: I ‘Preferred You’ in ‘Ghost’” by Matt Wilstein on 22 July 2018, as follows:

    After addressing her backstage fight with Fox News host Jeanine Pirro on The View this week, Whoopi Goldberg said, “I suspect this is going to go on, because she has a show on Saturday and stuff.”

    “But look, you can come to this show, we treat everybody with respect.”

    “But you cannot come and call people names.”

    As Goldberg suspected, Pirro took a break from serving as a North Korean-style propaganda mouthpiece for Donald Trump to continue going after The View moderator, who previously she accused of having “Trump Derangement Syndrome.”

    Pirro dedicated her opening rant on the show to The View incident, showing an extended clip of the shoutfest between herself and Goldberg.

    “After that, I was cursed at and I and my team were thrown out of the building,” she told Fox News viewers, without going into detail as she did on Sean Hannity’s radio show on Thursday.

    “She said ‘F you’ in my face, literally spitting at me.”

    “‘F you, get the F out of this building!’” Pirro told Hannity.

    Goldberg admitted to the profanity but denied the spitting.

    The host seemed to deliberately leave out the moment when she reportedly called The View crew “co—suckers” in front of the audience, as a witness told The Daily Beast on Friday.

    “The View was just a microcosm of what’s going on in this country,” Pirro added, zeroing in on so-called “Trump Derangement Syndrome” and the “vitriol” against the president from the Left that’s “so palpable it’s become frightening.”
