I am in a similar situation. I spent too much time obsessing over election numbers, it is good to keep my math skills up, and I would have felt sick no matter who won, but I am definitely feeling sicker than I could have. I tell myself that the President really does have very limited power and a House and Senate that doesn't like him much and will hopefully keep him on a very short leash.

What I did is refocus myself into my favorite football team, the Seahawks. I can still focus on numbers and watching them play is one of the few things I still truly enjoy. After the season is over, hopefully February 5th there are plenty of things to pay attention to that is almost as fascinating as the game itself. It is the only sport and sports team I follow but not long after the season is over I can focus on pre-draft stuff, free agency and the draft and then the preseason starts again.

I also need to get back to my programming and I have a stack of books to read. Come to think of it, just distracting myself with whatever is always the most helpful answer for dealing with my crap. Problem is, that is easier said than done.
