Are you getting off on getting down? Do you constantly look for the tarnished side of the silver lining? If so, like me, you've become one of thousands who are hooked on pessimism porn. Bad news about the economy, global relations and medical stories suck you right into a pattern of masochistic mental masturbation.
Of course, bad news is hard to avoid these days with every magazine, newspaper, news service and blog screaming that the sky, economy, democracy, etc., are falling.
Break the pattern by reading some good news each day, or just avoid reading the news altogether for 24 or more hours.
Things may be bad, but are they as bad as we make them seem?
As the song goes: "The sun'll come up tomorrow..."
