I think reducing the amount of news one consumes at least slightly improves things. Unfortunately, my wife and many of my loved ones are targets of Trump and his minions, so I can't totally tune things out, but consuming less news media at least makes for less internalization.



I’ll challenge you: what action are you and your wife+family going to be taking based on the news? If that approximates zero, then you are only just stressing yourself.


It depends on who you are. If you're a straight white guy then completely zoning out might be the right answer. If you are an immigrant then knowing that ICE is raiding Chicago on Tuesday is very important information.
