I had a long call with some old friends the other day and was describing how I've been feeling unusually down for the last year or so without knowing why... and they said, hmm, does this have anything to do with how our entire country feels badly right now? And that was my light bulb moment. Not sure why that wasn't obvious to me, but I guess that's what friends are for.

    That is somewhat scapegoating your feelings. Yes things are bad and expensive, but there should be a little circle of influence in your life where you feel you can do positive things for yourself and others.
