I know a lot of people who are having trouble handling the way things are going. The left has engaged in sustained, random, low-intensity violence on a national level. People feel they need to prepare, but they can't retaliate, and that constant edgy readiness is already wearing people down while the left continues to randomly burn and loot with impunity.
Do people have some ideas on how to handle that constant background noise without getting worn down and losing before the fight even begins? I've been able to compartmentalize and just wait to do the job that's in front of me, but not everyone can do that.
Get outside and move around a bit. I was never even close to an athletic person and sat around inside too much as a kid. Older me loves to just go for a walk, hike, bike ride etc. I don't think I've ever felt bad coming in from even just a short 20min walk even if it's cold and rainy (or where I am more likely hot as hell). It's a mental reset for me.
Another thing is try to find some things to get your brain going. For me that can be anything from working extra hard on second language skills (trying to learn to read Japanese) to coding something that I'll probably never finish anyway to playing a more mental or creative video game like a Sim City, Tropico, Civ V, etc. Just anything to get your brain working. Not something political or media based. The point is to clear your head of this stuff not make it worse.
