Therapists say there's been a rise in anxiety stemming from the country's politics, and it is being called "Trump Anxiety Disorder."
A report from CBC News in Canada says that since President Trump was elected, mental health professionals in the United States have seen an increase in patients whose stress has come from politics.
A prevalent "symptom" of the "disorder" is feeling as though the world is going to end.
Only the left would create yet another "disorder" to justify their inability to adult. Why does that demographic consistently exhibit such inclinations toward "I suffer from <insert excuse here>.."?

So you have some stressed out lefties. Meanwhile, areas showing heavy support for Trump are full of folks sitting on their arse sucking down opioids and draining your tax dollars because of their snowflake-soaked distress over Hillary’s emails, or whatever made-up non-issue they’re bitching about this week.

fun fact: "Blue" States tend to have more generous policies with prescribing/distributing Methadone.

You’ve resorted to increasing your geographical sample area sizes just to end up doing no better than splitting it by state. The calculation for measure of opioid use in the resource I’ve given is more specific to local politics and samples smaller geographical areas.
Basically, you’ve just violated your own rule about ‘sweeping generalizations’. I figured that it would take at least a few days for you to do that, but it looks like you can’t go much longer than 24 hours with that sort of thing. ; )
