Many activist campaigns struggle because the framing of their mission is not in line with what potential supporters want or need. People are especially interested in saving money, saving time, and more strongly meeting their basic needs and desires.
Money: Does this product cost less than another? Will this lower taxes? Time: Is this activity convenient and easy to sign up for? Does the location of this business help people access XYZ thing faster? Care: Does this line up with a person's basic needs and beliefs about the world? Does it give them better access to food or make them healthier? Does it speak to their religious, spiritual, moral, or ethical views? If you can center your message around at least two of these, then it makes your campaign relatable to a wider audience - people don't care about what you're saying unless it directly impacts them in some way.

There is a profound idea that I was introduced to when I first began to meditate - we have the option of thinking, or not thinking, anytime we want to. Emotional suffering may start with an incident, but grows exponentially with our thoughts. Focus on your surroundings, your breathing, or different thoughts and visuals. Better yet, deal with whatever incident caused the thoughts in the first place. Mental control is a skill, and becomes easier with practice. Study meditation or yoga - learn methods of bringing yourself back to what is really happening right now in your direct vicinity.
Go explore the world. Even if it is scary sometimes, the rewards are bountiful and a deep part of the human experience.
We are social creatures. All work done by even the most highly revered individuals relies on countless people supporting them. No one is thriving without the help of others, we are all connected in this together.
