I sometimes used to feel the urge to burn down my house, with my family in it (but not my daughter) imagine I had acted on those feelings?
Sometimes I feel like high fiving people.... in the face... With a chair, because they're bloody annoying.

Sometimes, well alot of times, I feel like running away from my life and everyone in it, imagine I acted on that feeling.
Yes, your feelings are all valid, even if they are incomprehensible, but there's no rule that states you have to act on them.
At this point, if I were in your shoes, I would draw up a pros and cons list and make my decision based on it's outcome. That way I would know I'm behaving in a rational, logical manner, and that my choice probably (usually definitely) won't backfire.
But, to each their own, sometimes some people must just make their own mistakes instead of listening to the wise warnings of others. It's the only way they learn.

High fiving people... in the face... with a chair was so hilarious. Sorry but I had to remark it.
