Election anxiety, COVID, seasonal depression coming early this year...I’m not smoking though. If I can quit smoking during the worst year, I can abstain for the rest of my life.

I'm glad you are staying strong and I agree that if you can go smoke free thru all this you should be able to for a life time As sadly things are different not just here in America but all over the world due to Covid. All you can do is protect yourself the best way you can.
A simple prayer has a easy guideline to follow You don't have to say the prayer just use the ideas that work
to help relieve stress
Accept the things you can not change
Have the courage to change the things you can
Have the wisdom to know the difference
Have the understanding that Smoking doesn't help anything

Change it up SisBB watch something funny or do something fun...don’t let smoking become a choice...You got this hon...Happy Tuesday ~ Colleen 701 DOF
A couple of things you CAN do that might help......bundle up and get outside - get some sun on your face and a walk will ALWAYS make you feel better. Don't listen to election coverage this evening - or watch the news for the next few days. You will hear of the results of the election in due time, and the talking heads are just that...trying to fill airspace and keep us tuned in to make $$$ on the commercials. No sense in knowing that the pandemic deaths are rising in Europe, or there is election fraud suspected in this or that place. NONE of it is anything over which we have any control, so there is no use allowing ourselves to get stressed over it.
I am impressed that you have quit smoking in 2020. That is something of which you should be VERY proud!
Hang in there; this year, and this pandemic, will end......
The only thing I could think of to give you... a smile... You are not alone in your feelings! We’re ok! And smoke free!
