Moonkin,
Yes, the world is a mess. BUT, YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE TOO! You can be smart, intuitive, caring, kind, gentle and HEALTHY. Try not to internalize all the negative you see outside of yourself. Let that stay out there. You can get squared away within yourself so that you have a positive impact on the outside world. If you internalize all the "yuk" you will eventually be park of the "yuk." I don't see that for you. You have a lot to contribute.

Please try to focus inward and work to improve what's inside you. That way as you grow and move through the world, you will be a positive catalyst for change! Hurray!

Take care,
Okie
