It's why I don't watch or read the news. I wouldn't be able to live my life I'd get too depressed. Last time I regularly watched and read it I was very ill.
Reality is good but without a little optimism and an "ignorance is bliss" approach I start to feel suicidal. Ever since I stopped thinking about the world and focused on my own life I've never been suicidal since.
Red pill or blue pill? When I was younger it was blue pill. Then for years, red every time.
Nowadays I like to take one of each.
