I’m really struggling to keep my mind on work with everything going on in the news. Between the politics and the fighting overseas, my anxiety is making it impossible to concentrate. What do you do to get your brain back into work mode when you’re feeling overwhelmed by world events?

Stop watching the News

I hear you. I've honestly had to stop myself from looking at the news. It's too depressing reading about everything going on in the world. I like being informed and all, but not at the expense of my mental health.

I remind myself that no one else is going to pay my bills because I’m a working class American.

Facing that kind of struggle, you are allowed to take a break from it. You being informed doesn’t change the state of things. Make sure you are good first and foremost.

Comforting others:
When someone tells me bad news regarding their health, I say everything I am supposed to say (I’m sorry to hear that, I’m here for you, etc) EXCEPT “everything is going to be ok”. Because I can’t guarantee that and I really don’t know if everything is going to be ok. I was taken aback recently when a friend told me I am calloused and cold-hearted for not being able to say those words. Is she right? Should I start saying this for the purposes of providing comfort only??
