Hi Mel2334,
Welcome to the forums. I hear you - it's a very overwhelming time right now!

I know that it is easier said than done but can you limit watching the news if this is taking up too much of your time? This is something I've had to do as well and while it's hard to do it's so important.
We are always here if you want to chat more.
