Your instinct is correct, ration the media diet carefully. Find yourself some Melatonin, take as directed. He is the worst we have ever had and hopefully ever have.
Find the things you used to do that gave you the most satisfaction before all this crazy noise started. You are not alone in your concerns as well as symptoms.

Here is your zen moment. Just breath. Still some beauty left on the third rock from the sun.

As humans we are at a bit of a disadvantage in this universe. Everything around us of import seems to have a much longer lifespan than our 75 years. So we evaluate things on a much smaller scale than a truly objective view would likely entail. We look at things in relation to a few years or maybe a generation (20 years) while geologic events are viewed in thousands of years, global ones in millions and cosmic ones in billions. In this instance we're evaluating the effects of a Presidency and culture shift on America ... and that likely would require a view over decades rather than a few months.

My point is step back. Separate yourself from it and get an objective viewpoint. The battle between liberalism and conservatism in our country is best viewed as a teeter-totter that overcompensates one way then another vice just staying balanced in the middle. View the balance instead of the extreme swings. Know that the factors that make it swing to the left or the right are the things that make us sweat it - but the balance will eventually come. The right's horrid acts will spur more activity from the left and they will rise up to overtake the right. Then they will swing it too far and the reverse will happen. And if it causes the country to change its' form then that is also the teeter-totter of yet another balance between democratic values and autocratic ones.

Gain a better perspective. Thats the true solution.

I know this isn't really a thing any more, but you could learn some coping skills and quit obsessing over it. That would be the easiest thing.

Can’t believe I’m going to say this since I’m a heterosexual male; find a male close to you, start an argument by asking him what’s makes him so damn special when all he wants is pussy and wealth. Don’t hold back, even if he backs down, just hound him until he finally demands you get out his face or go fuck yourself. Get the last word by telling him you know of his secret obsession and admiration for his pals. Pour yourself a stiff drink, especially if you don’t drink, go to bed, masturbate if you want, and you'll probably want to, and you’ll sleep like a baby. Is that abstract enough for you?

What’s there to lose? Just stay away from him and the alcohol after that as you might have hit a nerve!!

See, we men are jabbering freaks, closeness frightens us so we jab to keep people at arm's length, a woman's strength is the opposite; the closer you get the more dangerous she can be. Men move about from their head, either one while women move about from the heart. Don't let yourself get depressed from the likes of DT, understand where he's coming from then you'll realize where he's going (in this life) is the ultimate solution. Nothing can stop it.

Don't give them the satisfaction. Keep calm, and carry on.

Believe in the system. It's working right now - albeit slowly and behind closed doors. I doubt other world leaders think of Trump as anything but a joke. I doubt any U.S. politicians (especially Republican leaders) think Trump as anything but a joke.

Kushner just lost his security clearance - effectively keeping him out of the Oval Office. Hope Hicks just quit. She was questioned for 8 hours by the House Intelligence Committee and admitted that she told "white lies" while in Trump's office. She refused to comment in a lot of the questions, though.

The WH is certainly not a steady ship. Imagine the constant frustrations they must experience working for Trump.

Imagine the stress Kelly Conway and Sarah Sanders must experience. Imagine what their nights must be like as they think of the lies they had to make during the day simply to protect Trump - who constantly puts his foot in his mouth.

Stephen Miller, on the other hand, doesn't experience stress because he's not human.

Always look for the humor in the stupidity. Remember, it could be worse we could have a competent asshole instead of an incompetent one. America has survived worse. As Churchill one said"one can always count on America to do the right thing. They simply need to try everything else first."

I have to be careful what and who I watch or I can get soooo depressed. Definitely stay away from stuff like Fox News and even mainstream media. Unfollow any friends on FB who post too many political things. If anything, follow progressives in the media like Robert Reich, Rachel Maddow, Stephen Colbert, Jon Stewart, et al, just to give a sense of levity. Otherwise I can go out of my mind.

I have backed away from politics and the daily news cycle. I follow @SethAbramson on Twitter for good legal analysis of the Mueller investigation and a way to root for the tide to turn. I will definitely vote in the mid-terms. I have the luxury of being old, white, heterosexual and upper middle class, so there's not much immediate downside in Trumpism for me, but my son was young, white, asexual and lower class and in a backhanded way I'm glad he didn't live to see the Trumpocalypse, he would have had real reason to worry. He missed it by just a few months.

Well I know what his reaction would have been -- head-shaking bemusement. He wasn't one to worry. But what quality of life he had was thanks to the Affordable Care Act and similar initiatives -- now things are heading in the opposite direction. Let's be honest, I'd have been worried for him.

I am so sorry, but you are not the only one, I share the same feelings as you. I have gotten to the point of just laughing at the idiot that brainless fool is.
