I have to stop caring about politics for my mental health.

Political

When I found out a black woman was running for president I was like yay but y'all see where that's at now. Anyway, everyday I see him passing a new executive order or doing something crazy in the White House and it consumes my energy and I just wonder why and I start asking a bunch of questions.

I cannot keep doing that. I've done everything in my power to ensure that the president of the United States wasn't a felon and I just can't keep caring about it anymore. Whatever they do is out of my control. Like I'm literally going to make myself sick worrying and stressing and contemplating about why they're doing the things that they're doing. Overthinking is going to do nothing for me so I simply have to not care anymore. That is the only way for me to be okay, by not caring.

I'm extremely passionate about our world and the state it's in, about psychology and how people act, and I like asking questions. But I simply can't anymore. I've accepted and understood reality for some time now. I literally have to let this go
