Gen X here, but I can sadly relate to this phenomenon. I've greatly reduced my consumption of social media in the hopes that that helps somewhat, and am trying to reduce my consumption of news as well.

I disagree that calling 988 is "the best thing you can do", especially for my fellow trans folks who are at great risk from the police. For trans folks in the U.S. and Canada, the Trans Lifeline is a better choice: translifeline.org.
