Sometimes this can also be a good thing. I think for me it's the opposite, when I read the news and they are telling about rape, torture, killing or all this horrific stuff, it's really hard not to have bad images in my head. When I see some of the bad things online on newssites or twitter/reddit it's also really hard to get those images out of my head again. That's one of the reasons I want to stop reading the news. I probably going to switch to reading a newspaper that's been published once a week, should keep me up to date and doesn't give me anxiety for the rest of the day.
