True ignorance is bliss. Uncertainty is stressful. I'd rub the crystal.

As for anxiety management (I hope you're doing okay in these pressing times btw), I find it a fun exercise to try to detach from myself and consider myself part of the large amorphous human organism, and look at how it's matured over time:

You and I might not be around in X years, but we live on in the patchy memory of others and will be a part of the human organism that stretches out over the planet and reaches for the stars.

Wow, that timeline is amazing!

I've been thinking (or overthinking, IDK) on having a meaningful life, perhaps for 40 years more, and then I read about what has happened in the last 100 years (let's say, 1 generation) , 200 years (2 generations), and that gives you a huge perspective on you being a single person in a whole universe of time and billions of human beings.

Aaaaand after that inmense universe, we are a whole world for, we say, 50 people in this day.
