Another thing I’m doing is voting AS SOON AS I CAN. I know where I stand, I’m looking forward to getting that off my plate and tuning everything else out until the polls close.

I acknowledge this isn’t for everyone, but weirdly my self care around election season is to be MORE involved. Now, I totally agree on not doom-scrolling social media. However, what I’ve done is engaged locally. I have met the candidates for our state senate running in the party I’m affiliated with. I volunteer for them and for my local party. I make donations where I’m able. For me, doing those things actually gives me more of a sense of control and less hopelessness.
