Disagree. I find it very helpful to be busy during stressful times. Otherwise you are just endlessly thinking about the war and incessantly checking news sources.

I can't even imagine the mental pressure these folks are under.

Thank you! We also see it this way from what we hear from folks. Eg I limited newsfeed to 2 times a day and try to be busy all other times otherwise it gets all energy away for being worried.
