No shame in feeling scared, overwhelmed and not knowing what to do. To me feeling one's feelings doesn't preclude taking action. These are confusing times. Give yourself some grace.

How about stop having a defeatist attitude and maybe not expect the worse all the time? Dictatorships don't happen over night (Hitler not withstanding, he was a scary weird exception to the rule, but quite a few countries learnt their lesson, and there has been a lot of over correcting to help)
