Griffin revealed that she has been utilizing a technique she calls “cat-cow,” in which she imitates an animal while doing yoga, to cope with stress and PTSD. ““It’s when I get on all fours like a kitty cat and then I arch my back and I am instructed by my teacher to say the word meow. I feel like a fu**ing fool, but I do it,” she said.
“And then I un-arch my back and — wait for it — I ‘moo’ like a cow,” Griffin added. “PTSD is a b**ch, and when I get PTSD attacks, I can’t stop vomiting. So if I have to meow like a kitty cat and moo like a cow, I’m gonna fu**ing do it.”
Griffin hopes that, given the emotional toll that the Trump administration and the COVID-19 pandemic have taken, viewers will identify with her struggles.
“This show is gonna be more personal because I’ve been through so much crazy stuff really in front of anybody who was paying attention. I actually do have PTSD, and I’m laughing because I thought that was only for combat veterans,” she said.

Griffin ascribed her post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) to President Trump’s encouragement to file charges against her as well as a Department of Justice (DOJ) investigation into her behavior.
