Me too. I am functionally overwhelmed.
I swear to you I have spent the last three days watching the news and
responding to email. It's been so hard to get any work done. I mean,
there's this overwhelming tragedy. I keep checking the victim lists for
updates to see if anyone I was ever friends with is missing. I've been
searching the internet for old boyfriends who moved to NYC years ago. I
can't even watch the news anymore. Most of the time I'm disgusted with this
tragedy and the rest of the time I'm disgusted with the coverage of it.
Beyond that, there are huge issues facing our country right now and I get
updates, editorials that tick me off that I feel must be responded to. I've
been in crypto debates, racism debates, sexism debates, human rights
debates, privacy debates. I know a bunch of people who have been trying to
calm people down and get them to think rationally but the majority of the
things I see really scare me.
How can I work when everything is hysterical and it's taking all of my
power just to be ok?
