(4,341 posts)50. get away from politics for a couple of weeks and dedicate time to your sport or hobby
That is what I did, I got away from the politics, kind of came to DU and browsed once in a while, read a couple of books (pick something with humor), I happen to like Kurt Vonnegut, even though his stories are about "human stupidity" he does it in a very funny way. My favourite is "Cat's Cradle".
Watch funny movies, or romantic movies with good endings of course.
Get away from it all for a couple of weeks, be disciplined about it, and when you come back you will be very relaxed.
Good luck to you, I hope it works out.
