anyone reach full mental saturation of the terrorist attack yet?

[bigredguy]

If i haven't, i am about one new camera angle away. I am not saying it is a bad thing it just seems that i need a break from it all and have no idea how to do that. I can't sleep, i can't concentrate on anything to set my mind elsewhere, nor veg out and just watch like a movie. The only way to keep my brain from thinking about the tons of unfortunate people out there is to watch the same shots of the planes flying into the buildings over and over agian, which just turns my brain activity to just about 0, but it is starting to cease working, i guess watching the news for the majority of the last 16 hours will do that.
Oh well i doubt i will find answers here.

All I can think about is the poor fire fighters removing rubble, and finding dead bodies...

I wish I was there to help, if someone will give me money for gas, I will drive down there now..

I understand...

My brain is fried right now...

I got 4 hours of sleep last night, got up at 8 am to watch the second jet crash into the second tower...

I won't sleep tonight... I feel like someone has kicked me in the stomach...

If I had the money for gas and the several days it takes to drive to New York from California, I would. I don't think they'd let us in anyway. I'm so tired but I can't sleep. How many of you guys are also watching the news?

 

[bigredguy]

First, i live in the mid-pacific so fat chance of me driving there
and second i gave up on the news til morning if i can help it
i feel like i would the day after i had really bad hangover with like sunstroke or something.

i know how you all feel...

last night i was surfing for some jobs,...and then put in a movie...
when i was ready to go to bed, i hear my father and sister talk about the grounding of all planes in the US.

I wal outside to the living room...and been watching tv ever since....

same gruesome sight...same sick to my belly feel.

Can't sleep...all i think abuot are:

-images of planes crashing into WTC
-Second plane crashing into 2nd WTC building...(especially the angle at which it came in)
-The explosions of the planes...
-the lives lost on the planes
-The pentagon, plane's passengers, crew, and those working in the pentagon
-the collapsing WTC
-collapsing of 2nd WTC
-lost firefighters 300+
-missing police oficers 33 (maybe more)
-seeing those people jump out of the WTC buildings
-and the constant thought of what all the families must be going through....

so many dead...such a tragedy....

and now Bin Laden...if it's him...I hope he gets what he deserves...

I agree with the President when he says that he will not "differentiate those responsible, and those who harbor Bin Laden"
...I'm not one for violence...but I think RETALIATION is a MUST to protect hour FREEDOM from being further threatened....

seeing those people jump out of the WTC buildings
whenever this came on i had to change the channel
and the story of a NY fireman or policeman that was killed by a person that jumped nearly made me vomit

i worry greatly...
...that this is not the last
...that in order to ease americas hard feelings that a possibly random target may be destroyed by us to keep americans happy
...that an action we take me only escalate a horrible tragedy
...that if we stand by too idly that it will escalate as well because terrorists think they can get away with it
...that our "faithful leader" may do something foolish that we all will regret
...that in a year i will have to remember the horriible day of 911, a day of the greatest american emergency
...that i will become even more depressed and sleep little and eat less until something is done
...that if i do finally fall alseep that i will be so stressed that i will grind my teeth
...that i find out someone i knew and cared for was/is one of the mortality's
...that it was backed by a nation and we go to war. A war where every plane of men we send in they send a briefcase bomb in to our beloved country

and so many more that i better quitthinking of them or shall hurl

i think i may have found the outlet i sought



edit: stresses so i have poor typing skills, as you can prolly see

yeah. you are experiencing this because you are sitting there and doing nothing
while the people at WTC suffer. You are a good person seeing this and doing nothing about it
have put your brain into shock. The best way to get over this is to donate blood
or talk with a friend or family and share ideas about safety precautions. Don't
blame it on yourself. just relax, take a deep breath, drink water...etc
You can't do much off of the dead.

 

[bigredguy]

yeah i know, and i would donate blood but i hate needles and as we are but an island and have not secured a definite way to transfer blood i shy away from that, and i feel helpless, that i wish all in the world to be able to help but have to stand idly by. drives me nuts.
