She could have a chronic lack of sleep given the effects listed below (that I emphasized).

How long can humans stay awake?

J. Christian Gillin, a professor of psychiatry at the University of California, San Diego, conducts research on sleep, chronobiology and mood disorders. He supplies the following answer.


The easy experimental answer to this question is 264 hours (about 11 days). In 1965, Randy Gardner, a 17-year-old high school student, set this apparent world-record for a science fair. Several other normal research subjects have remained awake for eight to 10 days in carefully monitored experiments. None of these individuals experienced serious medical, neurological, physiological or psychiatric problems. On the other hand, all of them showed progressive and significant deficits in concentration, motivation, perception and other higher mental processes as the duration of sleep deprivation increased. Nevertheless, all experimental subjects recovered to relative normality within one or two nights of recovery sleep. Other anecdotal reports describe soldiers staying awake for four days in battle, or unmedicated patients with mania going without sleep for three to four days.

I went through a terrible bout after my second baby was born and I retired from my first career to stay home. In retrospect, it was probably an adjustment disorder because I loved that job and didn't know exactly what to do with myself. I just could not sleep and I became exhausted and almost had to be hospitalized. Then it simply stopped. Anyway, I remember being awake in the middle of the night and reading my Merck Manual to see what possibly could be wrong with me and saw the chapter on "Prions" and FFI and it just scared the shit out of me. I thought I had it.

Nor will you if you have a guilty conscience, know you are sinning against all that you religion espouses and such. Sooner or later, the oozing out of your crap will kill you. Consider that you deserve that. Own up to the monster that you support. We will not stop our work to resist all you are trying to do to destroy our country and the people you want to harm. Our America is a good place.

Honey, you don't get to dictate how the media reports your verbal diarrhea, and you don't get to have reporters "let go" because you don't like what they reported.

You need to just go off and find a safe space where those media meanies won't "trigger" you.

Just imagine if she'd been working for Obama and not been fired. She'd already be dead of those seeping, gaping wounds.
