I focus on the good things in life. I have a lovely wife, 2 great cats and a great job that I enjoy. I try to focus more on that, than on all the horrible shit in the world. Not that I ignore all the bullshit, but it’s easier to stay positive when it’s not your whole life.
Granted I am privileged in the bullshit not directly affecting my life.
Not sure I would call it ignorance is bliss. It’s still very important to be informed, even if it doesn’t actually have an impact on your life. But what I’m saying is, it’s equally important to focus on the good things too. If not, it’s easy to live in a bubble of horror, which absolutely will impact your mental health.

Wouldn’t be the first time I’ve been given the “Ignorance is bliss” advice…
