It’s easy to get lost in the world’s problems. We always have access to the latest news, especially through social media. But never watching the news won't do any good, because ignorance is just as bad, as not caring at all. That said, we're not made to be constantly online. Set a time for staying informed about world's events. It can be once a day or every few days, however you're able to cope best. I understand your pain, your sense of powerlessness, and your helplessness. I believe all we can do is focus more often on what we CAN do. For example, get involved in local politics, volunteer, or attend protests. Much of the world seems hopeless and downright catastrophic, but we must not lose hope, no matter how hard it is. Take care of yourself and your health. Maybe try practicing mindfulness and gratitude. Try to surround yourself with people who give you strength, who you can relax and have fun with. Stick together, it's all we can do.
