Suggest Treatment For Difficulty Concentrating, Depression And Negative Thinking

Hello Doc, I am a 22 yr old male, since high school I have been watching news regularly as elders advised me to. Lately I ve observed a kind of depressive state of mind and overall negativity in me....some internet research pointed out that today s media intends to make you feel that way. It also said that over a period of time you lose focus and concentration too (some other side effects). Is it true?? If it is any suggestions on how i can cope up. It really bothers me and I need help. Thank You Scarred by Media

I went through your details. Please understand, You are what you think about yourself. Media can manipulate you till you accept their manipulation. For eg. Media shows many advertisements. Tell me, how many of those products you purchase? Media lets you know every news and corruption details regarding political parties. Still you go and vote or talk about those parties. Media will tell many negative thing about a seasonal pandemic or epidemic. Still you go out and do your job, though you may have some anxiety inside.
