I have a friend who regularly shares the latest news that brings him mental anguish, followed by messages along the lines of “the world is doomed, society is trash, how can anyone sleep soundly at night knowing the terrors that are happening this very second”.
I don’t know why he still follows them. It’s not like he takes action against these things, and most often he can’t do anything against them even if he wanted to, and this feeling of powerlessness, helplessness, hopelessness, is weighing him down so much.
The news
Same. For many years now. I didnt even remember that some people actually watch the news regularly.
The correct answer.
