But you can, outside of certain mental disorders, choose what you pay attention to. Presented with distressing news which you care about but can’t realistically change, you can choose to read more about it, or you can choose to occupy yourself in other ways to take your mind off of it.
- fsckboy 4y agothere are multiple subreddits devoted to pictures of cute baby animals, lovable pets, etc. They have rules against posting death mentions for your beloved pet, because it affects some other people too much. I'm just saying, it's not a choice unless you're to give up looking at cute animals which mostly brings joy to your life. I'm not like that, it wouldn't affect me in the least, but we aren't all the same.
