Wide awake, can't sleep..

Wishing my Dad was here. ( He died from Cancer a few months back, and I'm still not handling it well. I'm autistic, and never really learned how to process my emotions or someone not being here anymore. )

Checking the news has made me feel overwhelmed and frustrated. I don't like how I feel right now. I know it's not wise to stay so informed all the time, but considering I'm autistic, trans, bipoc and disabled I have to.

I'm constantly keeping up to date on things and it's wearing me out.

Being as I unfortunately live in Florida, I am terrified of what DeSantis is doing and what he could do. I don't like what's happening in the world and it's overwhelming.

I wish I could fix things, but I'm so tired.

I'd love to leave this state, but I'm disabled and my partners are trying their best to assure me that things are ok and we're all safe. But the news tells me otherwise..
