I have been going through the same thing. I found I was looking at too much social media posts with so many different people talking about it now. What helped me to feel better was the older generations saying people have been saying this since they were young. I keep thinking to myself ..no one knows, but then I can’t help but worry about it. I’m trying to avoid being on social media due to the amount of comments.
People literally do say this all the time. Have been since I was a kid. BUT, if you’re a Christian, and I’m assuming you are if you believe that this is something that will happen, then this is part of the plan that happens before the new kingdom. The unknown is scary but have faith and pray about your fears. Give them to God
Hi! I’ve been feeling the same—anxious and overwhelmed by the state of the world. Social media only intensifies it, with algorithms triggering our fear responses to keep us hooked. What helped me was reading about how fear has been used by religious and political leaders during major events like the Cold War, WWII, 9/11, and others. I even had an AI write an essay on it, which certainly helped me calm down and see things more clearly. If you’re someone of faith, I'd recommend you to disconnect from social media (especially on creators that use this as an excuse to get you to follow them and not to get you closer to your faith), and find hope and joy in the world by going outside and exploring it. Remember that you are currently safe and that you are what you consume. Focusing on the negative will not stop your rumination, but working on yourself and disconnecting may help you a lot. I hope this has helped you in any way, God bless you and stay positive :)
There’s a guy names mark de Jesus on YouTube who has helped me tremendously with ocd and he has a segment on this :)
