It makes sense that people are getting hysterical over this, especially if the violence goes on somewhere near them. It makes one too aware of the possibility of something bad happening to them or someone they care about. If someone struggles with paranoia or depression of any kind then I wouldn't recommend they pay attention to the news, since they already have enough on their plate to deal with, they don't need the weight of the world on their shoulders.

So we turn off the news and let the situation deteriate? NO. I may have few mental quirks but i am still able to cast a vote, attend a protest, be part of a movement, sent a money to cause.
By turning off the news the violence will not disappear. Nobody will care I have depression or whatnot if they want to commit act of terror near me.
When you turn off the news, you get forwarded e-mails, facebook shares and "I heard they secretly bring here immigrants in night, so nobody knows!!!!!" from your neighbor or random person on the bus. And you will be so ignorant, you will fall for it.
Yes, the news from decent sources are bad, but bearable and don't **** with your mind.
Hybrid war attacks the vulnerable. It is aware of their "too depressed to watch the news", so it delivers the propaganda by other means. And don't tell me you don't go to Facebook or social media of any sorts and don't talk to any self-imposed political science experts of who just "know" and deliberatelly and gleefully pass on yet another hoax.
If somebody is depressed they should watch news for some 30 minutes a day, as it was done in old time and be aware that the mispelled powerpoints and baldy edited videos that land in your inbox are not true. The world will not end tomorrow, even if we
are at war.
Look, you either are self-centered and you are not. If you are outwards centered person, even depression and what not will not make you not care. If you are happy/stuck in your own world... then well.
