Let down. The restaurant Spam and I were going to spend out anniversary at (and my all time favourite place) is likely closing. . .lol. RIP Teriyaki Bowl, your loyal 3 year customer will miss you dreadfully.
How are you feeling?

Heh, funny. Most people on chatroulette don't seem to get my joke, though. :/

I was actually thinking about something similar to this today. In the song "Baby you're a firework" she says in the beginning "Do you ever feel like a plastic bag drifting through the wind"
Just the fact she says she feels like a plastic bag, I find that funny. So I guess I feel like a plastic bag today.

It's midnight and I can't sleep because my feet have dance fever. I've been prancing around the house to the music in my head (Born this Way - ugggggggggggggggh), trying not to wake my family.

Expressing your rage (healthfully) is good, but even better is to not be angry to start with (and every time you get angry/irritated/etc, it adds to the internal "backlog", which eventually leads to rage).
Really, you have 3 options - sad, mad or glad. The best option is of course "glad". Doesn't mean literally "beaming with gladness" though (of course). But it means instead of reacting to the world around you with either "sadness" or "madness", you react with a kind of "acceptance" of whatever happens to you, good or bad .. accepting it without trying to change it, nor expecting good to happen nor bad not to happen. Hard to explain, but basically its about the "overall attitude" you have to life's events.

Whenever i'm yawning all day long, its due to reacting to toxins in my house, including possibly certain foods (eg low-quality water). Drinking pure/spring water can certainly help if your water is "dodgy" (eg smells or tastes a bit "off")

Wanting to end it. Trying to find hope for a good future.

I believe the "point" is "enjoying" the present moment, and finding "meaning" in it as well. But theres a difference between "enjoying" things - which is temporary, and living in a "state of joy" - which is constant. It appears you have temporarily lost the ability to experience joy in the prsesnt moment (anhedonia). That is something you will need to battle on with - how to re-gain "joy" from the LITTLEST things in life (forget about the "big" things, as they're all made up of many little thngs anyways)
I think you should just go fowards from exactly where you are, and not worry too much about the whys-and-wherefores, as your situation is too complex for "going-by-the-book". Thats what i found, that complex situation/issues requires complex solutions, not simplistic/logical/etc (such as haviing "ABC Therapy"). The human situation is kind of WAY complex anyway, for everyone.
So, SIMPLIFY, SIMPLIFY, SIMPLIFY. Get it down "on paper" (eg your journal). And do it CONSTANTLY. Record your thoughts, feelings, worries, problems, WHATEVER. ---> THAT is "where you currently are".
"If a ship has no course it will end up nowhere": I also would add that "if a ship does not know its CURRENT COORDINATES (location), then setting any course is POINTLESS, as all directions (ie course to set) & landmarks will be INVALID and will probably just get the ship EVEN MORE LOST"
Yep, they can certainly (& very easily) trigger some deep sh*it in oneself. But you gotta try & realize that their "ugliness" and your "ugly reactions/feelings" are 2 separate things. Ie they DO NOT force you to react, they only do the sensory things (words/actions/looks/etc), & YOU do the rest. To change from sad & mad, to glad, way of living, you must stop "the blame game" absolutely .. and start to "take responsibility" for how you feel, and think, and do (sorry if sounds harsh). And once you start doing this, you will also remove a number of unpleasant reactions, such as helplessness, powerlessness, victimised. Remember, "you are the only person who can make you do anything".
And try to become a little bit more understanding to your "enemies" (even if is one-sided). Realise that they are doing their best, and that they are also, just like yourself, subject to a number of life-hurdles - such as "ego". For instance, people who feel totally superior & self-righteous & smug (as you mentioned viz "blind-to-their-faults"), the ego is for them an insurmountable thing, and thay are so "taken over" by it, that they dont even realize its CONTROLLING them, yes, CONTROLLING, and so they don't even see their "ego" as even being a PROBLEM!

A lot better than last time. Medicine helped the most. Now I'm back in school again, exam time.
