Some crazy people should not have access to weapons. We can all agree on that. If the news is an addiction than you are some one that needs to take a break from it, except the local , weather, and sports. You are losing control of your life. STUFF AROUND THE HOUSE WITH YOUR HOME AND FAMILY IS BEING NEGLECTED.
It would be wise of you to stop your self destructive habit now. Stop the news, go take care of your chores and home first. Only look at a little news about an hour before bed. Than let yourself know there is nothing you can do, but live your best life now today and tomorrow literally.

It you are feeling cravings you probably are nutrionally deficient. So work on eating, fresh whole food and not crap. Drink lots of water take vitamins. Make sure you go to bed and get up on time. But, most important for you... unplug.

Nothing is going to change. Take it from me a long time GLPer.
