There are two sides two this. There’s yours, and then there is self-care and self-protection. Being constantly bombarded with this shit, these issues, problems and the world going down hill while you as an individual can’t even begin to influence or have any kind of impact on them can and will wreck your mental health.

In the end it needs balance. Don’t stick your head in the sand, but also don’t drown in the never ending despair that is the flood of bad news in modern media.
