I know the feeling. I can't watch the news or read newspapers or anything like that anymore because everything just seems so negative and it makes me have very little faith in humanity as a whole. Sometimes I go into an existential crisis because I am questioning the fate of humanity if things continue the way they are now.
I can't watch the news without going into a rage or crying and swearing at the television or at whoever is nearby. Now I try to limit how much I watch the news...enough to have a vague sense of what is going on but not enough to make my anxiety and depression even worse. I think it may be helpful to figure out if you can set a limit on how much you watch the news, etc... or to figure out if one specific thing in the news triggers you.
