Are we going to CBT our way out of the world events? Not at all. But if we each own what is ours to own, and persist in small helpful acts, meaningful change will be that much more attainable.

What is a counter to feeling drained? Refueling. Think about who and what makes you feel refreshed, replenished. Sleep. Community. Yoga. Your pet. Another counter to the drain? Boundaries. Set limits on time and quantity of the things that really take it out of you. Bow out when you’re burned out.

What’s a counter to helplessness? Finding a way to help. You are (guessing) not a billionaire, so set your expectations accordingly. Acknowledge what is beyond your control. Chunk out one small thing that fits your skillset, interests, strengths, abilities. And let yourself *feel good* about it.

Our instincts are (intentionally) put into overdrive by social media, the news cycle, and *gestures vaguely at everything else*. You know this, but it feels impossible to either pull away or to act, and that maths out to feeling drained and helpless. So what now? One solution is to find counters.
