My secret is compartmentalization. Whenever one of those thoughts about practically every western countries sprint into facism or our planet swiftly becomming uninhabitable pops up, I just file that thought away in the existential horror box before reattaching the chains holding that box closed and finding a nice quiet mental corner to hide it in.

Plus if there’s ever a time where I need a mental breakdown then that box is always there for me, lurking in my brain like an aging bottle of perchloric acid forgotten in a chemistry lab cubbord slowly precipitating highly unstable explosive peroxides.
