I did the same thing with you.. I cut watching news years ago.. And because of the same reason with you.. It was making me depressed. Unfortunately there are many bad things happening in the world there are a lot of bad people. So while we are watching their action like stealing, raping, killing, it is just making us upside down. So since I noticed that it was harming me, I stopped watching. And I am happy like this. i am learning good and useful infirmation as you mention by clicking:)
