The current world situation and what is to come is doing a number on my mental health, along with obvious and not so obvious personal things going on. I’m in dire need of essays/readings/podcasts/videos what ever to help me find some hope and optimism in these times. I really don’t want to fall into depression and apathy again, it sucks.

Edit: I went for a hike and feel better :D

    You may consider “touching grass”, which I interpret as staying away from news to reduce anxiety, spending time with friends & family, doing some sport, taking up a hobby, studying something not directly related to politics (science or philosophy for example)…

    Burnout is real and we need us healthy for the revolution ❤️

      Doing that on the daily yeah, it’s just hard to avoid the anxiety currently since there are real material changes happening all around me because of what is happening.
