Sanity is over-rated. I'm getting paid by veterans affairs (I'm an Iraqi war vet) for being 100% mentally disabled. I've learned a few tricks to getting by.

First and foremost, be okay with who you are, whoever you may be. No matter how fucked up you might or might not be in the eyes of the world (and especially in your own eyes) ... be okay with it. Accept it. Only then can you exist in "here and now."

Once you're "here and now," you can find the most interesting thing happening right in front of you at any given moment. Follow it. It is the white rabbit. And it will change on a moment by moment basis (because, of course, interests change.)

The world is what it is ... the way I see it, it's the sum of all things. Good or bad, right or wrong ... these things are all relative. And relativity is based on location. Be aware of whatever your white rabbit is ... and change your own location (worldview/physical location/religion/whatever else may need some changing) to whatever helps you best chase it.

Be okay with not having fun. Learn how to enjoy the unenjoyable. Be okay with the world and everything in it (from the "best" of the "best" to the "worst" of the "worst." Remember, it's all relative to you.)

Now, I'm no shrink, I don't get paid to help people with their problems ... but I do know how to deal with my own. And those are a few of the ways I do. Maybe it won't work for you, but there it is. Hope your life (and death) is everything it's supposed to be!
