Because shit is rough out there.
Give yourself permission to eschew political coverage and watch your favorite dumb TV shows.
It's good to be informed about the candidates and the issues, but it's easy in the current political and media landscape to become oversaturated in information, dialogue, and discourse, to the point that it's unproductive. If you're starting to feel like you're engaging with an unhealthy amount of political rhetoric, give yourself permission to shut it all down for a while and watch your favorite non-political media instead. Even if it's just old reruns of Friends or The New Girl.

Get a hobby.
Take up a new skill, like weaving, or macrame, or knitting. Even better if your new hobby can make you a little extra money! Even if not, handicrafts can be relaxing and meditative and can help destress you after a long day of work and political poopheads.
