Current Events > "It's almost like we get bombarded with these terrible world events"

(+) Yeah! (+)

Not sure what the point of my post is. But I was talking to my therapist yesterday, and this is what he said and it really stuck with me. I couldn't agree more. Does anyone else feel the same way?

Especially the way technology has given us full access of every single 24/7 detail of every horrific thing happening on the planet in real time. Like what's been happening with Israel/Palestine, and how you can now see a genocide happening in real time. I don't even keep up with it anymore.

Maybe that makes me selfish, but it also makes me human. I don't think people were meant to absorb so much constant doom and gloom that we're powerless again. Especially because there's almost nothing we can do about the atrocities.

That's why people say stop watching the news all the time, dawg. Literally what are you gonna do to change any of it? Just focus on the stuff in your life you can change.
