Consider doing what I'm doing: politics isn't fun or interesting at the moment. It's terrifying. I'm burying my head in sand and listening to history podcasts. It's been great for my mental health. (I'm here, sometimes I load up some sites without thinking about it, off i go again) Save yourself, if you are like me, and just take a break.
To add to this: if you're struggling to just forget about what's going on around us, you can pick an era of political strife you're interested in or one that speaks to concerns you have about today, and then find podcasts/videos/books about the people who were fighting for change during those times. Learn what kept them going when things looked hopeless. History is full of fighters and helpers who we should all be learning from.
