I don't feel this way because I don't watch the news.
If you watch that stuff, you are doing exactly what they earn money on. You being anxious, you clicking, you worrying.
You need to start focusing on your own life. Turn off that damn TV and stop watching news. What are you going to do next? Take a walk? Listen to music maybe? Watch a movie with friends? Eat cake?
Take back control of your emotions. Spend a day without watching the news. Can you even do it? Or will you become too anxious and worried by not knowing what's happening?
That only works if you live in a place with a reasonable leadership.
