It’s okay to step away from the news. The recent news of widespread mental health challenges and gun violence surrounding college campuses – not to mention other news in general – has been a lot to take in. It doesn’t make you less of an empathetic person or an activist to say, “I need a break.”
The recent news of widespread mental health challenges and gun violence surrounding college campuses – not to mention other news in general – has been a lot to take in. We at Caraway want to address this as a company and acknowledge that it’s hard and completely normal to be affected by news of troubling events even if they didn’t happen to you or anyone you know.
It’s also okay to step away from the news. It doesn’t make you less of an empathetic person or an activist to say, “I need a break.” And when you do re-engage with the news, consider strategies to control your news consumption rather than letting it control you. You can try reading the news instead of watching it, silencing notifications, or creating news digests through apps or email to filter and limit consumption.
