With the escalation in Gaza and West Bank on top of the incident I’m going to limit how much I spend on telegram, lemmy, etc. because I can get massively hyperfocussed on this shit. Feels a lot like when the Ukraine Russia war heated up and I was stuck to my phone 8 hours a day.
I’m lucky enough to have started my meds recently which are absolutely eviscerating my anxiety, but others aren’t so lucky.
Maybe delete a couple of apps and limit your exposure for a couple of days so even if you DO doomscroll it’s less paralysing.
The new world struggles to be born ❤️
I already have a folder for this variety of news. 👀 Yeah, it needs containment, more to escape the focus applied by humanitarian orgs than freaking out. You do want to make sure you have an idea what you’re looking for e.g. searching a particular country’s name.
Yup.
Tip for reliefweb specifically: You can filter based on a bunch of stuff, including country, and this carries over to the rss link.
