I physically sickens me that it is this close. I’m not joking. My stomach is in knots lately.

The only thing you sometimes have control over is perspective. You don't have control over your situation. But you have a choice about how you view it.
I encourage you to take some of the election anxiety and turn it into productive action. That could look like canvasing (door knocking) to phone banking, text banking, letter writing and more. Those all have been shown to increase voter turnout. If nothing else, it at least reduce some of the anxiety
- Here's a site that shows volunteer opportunities around you both in person and online
- You can find canvasing, phone banking, text banking, etc. there
- Help write letters to swing states or competitive down ballot races
