I'm really very impressed with you sportsdude.
From all I've gathered from your posts, you are an inciteful and caring person.
IMO, just as my philosophy leads unavoidably to a feeling of emptiness, your perspective will lead to feelings of hopelessness and depression. You are too intelligent not to see where the world is headed. And you're too kind-hearted not to care.
The trick is staying sane in this madhouse.
Balance is the key IMO. When you start to feel overwhelmed, you've got to balance the horror you see in the world with something positive. Get some sun, visit a garden, spend time with optimistic, loving friends, whatever works in your particular situation.
I would also recommend studying meditation. I think it can be helpful in developing the inner strength that will allow you to maintain, and even increase your insight, while at the same time prevent it from overwhelming you.
