I'm pretty low about various things right now.

Fom the big picture to the petty, it seems like the world is out to kill me. Paranoid? Maybe. It seems like if the NRA gunhadists don't want to lock me away forever as part of the "solution" to gun violence, then I'm doing stupid shit like getting spooked by parking garages.

Please, someone tell me that life gets better and returns to some normal, even if a different normal, because my life has been upside down for six months now and frankly it's really wearing in my nerves.

I don't mean "kill me" literally, of course. Emotionally wound might be a better way to state it.

I know, I take everything far too personally, internalize all of the big picture stuff as if were all about me, and am overly sensitive in general.

Staying strong in the face of adversity is hard, and I feel like I'm scraping the bottom of the barrel of strength.

So, how do all of you deal with the hurt of things large or small in some appropriate way?
