At times, I have found myself very anxious about the state of politics in America. Usually, those times pass quickly. But also I have found ways to reduce the anxiety immediately, among them:
#1 – Today is not as bad as we may think. In other words,life itself creates worries and concerns; they are nothing new. If you are in immediate danger or see it coming, of course, take the necessary avoidance steps immediately. Over all though, life can be tough; stop wanting to make it perfect.
2)Immerse yourself in doing what you enjoy or find meaning in. In a hobby, in reading certain kinds of entertaining documents or those that cater to your personal tastes.
#3) Connect with friends, share with them where your are in your thinking at the moment. True friends will understand you, comfort and encourage you. Count on it
#4) Lose yourself in your work, in doing it as well as you can; that alone will interfere with, even cease your worries. If your work is unsatisfying, look to make long range steps to finding a job that is better suited to your talents nd interests.
