Comedian and activist Chelsea Handler shared Friday that she had to seek out a psychiatrist after Donald Trump's victory in the 2016 presidential election.

Handler explained during an appearance on “Real Time with Bill Maher” that she went through a “midlife identity crisis” after Trump shocked the world by defeating Hillary Clinton for the nation's highest office, saying she never felt her life feel “so unhinged.”

“I had to pay a psychiatrist to listen to me b---- about Donald Trump for about the first three weeks,” Handler told Maher. “And then once when we got past that and got to the real stuff, I realized the parallel there was my world becoming unhinged when I was a little girl, my brother died when I was nine years old. I had never related the two, but for me, as I can imagine it must have been for so many people, it was an emotional trigger of everything being destabilized and I realized how spoiled and privileged I had been all my life and realize to be this upset and this on-a-ten every day and the outrage and the anger, I just wanted to f---ing fight people, you know? And I was like, ‘I have to go see a psychiatrist.’”

The liberal comedian also spoke about having “white guilt” and how she realized in therapy that she had believed she didn’t have “the right to be in pain” because she hadn't been raped or molested.

“I’m a more mindful citizen because of it and I woke up. I’m in an awakening,” Handler continued.

She also said Trump’s election win “led” her to smoking marijuana and pivoting away from alcohol, calling cannabis the “gateway drug to meditation.”

Wow... somehow, we Deplorables and Normals managed to survive Obama actively destroying this country for 8 yesrs... without drugging ourselves, without needing psychiatric help, and still knowing who we are and what we believe in and stand for.

I believe Ms Handler needs to get out more, and that liberals must be the weakest people on the planet.

That woman is an unhinged, royal mess. If there was no Trump she'd just find another outlet for her particular brand of crazy. In any case, who gives a FF about her?

Best regards

To bad it didn't make her (it is a her, right?) want to move to Australia's Outback. Where she would of discovered that gator's, and snakes taste like chicken.

Sounds like neither the the shrink nor the pot worked. She is still shining and complaining about nonexistent shit from a past life.
Oh, the pot, alcohol and drugs aren't working either

Chelsea describes a common problem associated with POTUS elections.

I know several people who purchased ARs and thousands of rounds of ammo following the Obama election debacle.

I feel her pain.

I give up.
She's just an aging irrelevant old boot who bleaches her hair.

She needs more pot, not less. Cripe, what a downer, and people pay her for that?

She misses hanging out with bams and moochie in the party house, I'm sure.

:rolleyes:

It isn't uncommon for something to shock a person into realizing that what they think is upsetting them is actually bringing up memories of something else and a good therapist can help with that, there are also indications that the cautious use of some natural pharmaceuticals like St. John's Wart or certain strains of Cannabis can help with that.

However, most people don't feel the need to go on about it on TV, instead, they keep it between themselves and their medical practitioner on a therapist, which is what they are there for.

This is what I think of when I think of the word "over-sharing."

If we were really lucky, a gator or snake would have discovered whatva Chelsea Handler tasted like!

Trump didn't give you the weed to smoke, Trump didn't drive you to see a shrink, you did this to yourself. Since you let your problems overwhelm you, maybe you should be put away for life Chelsea. You're a danger to yourself and the public.

I’ve found that most liberals I’ve encountered have spent decades with therapists. They need someone to tell their troubles to. Back in the day, those were called “friends”, and you didn’t have to pay them $150/hour.

Ultra MAGA!
It just let her mental illness bubble to the surface. It was there all along. Get yourself together people or your going to be in REAL trouble when he gets reelected next year. Liberalism is the ultimate cop-out.

If Trump wins again, I may well drive into downtown Austin and hang out on the Capitol grounds just to watch then fun. (MAGA cap optional.)

:D

Color yourself surprised, my wife is one of those. Her primary problems were, her mother conceived her while “dad” was in the service, he split when he came home and found out. Older brother blames my wife for dad abandoning them. Grandparents took them in, but discipline often included threats to “send them back to County”. Oh, and there was also the little situation with “Grandad”, but all the girls in the family went thru that.
 
I have just a bit of confusion here. Isn’t there an “it” in the military, similar name, something about leaks or other naughty stuff?

Lots of bad decisions.
Actor...who isn't.
Comedian...yeah-right.

The mentally ill all blame Trump for their troubles.

They truly are mentally ill, and there's 10s of millions of them ... many with influential positions in society. Consider how many are teaching K-12.
