I hate world for all of the evil people, I hate myself for not doing anything to change it and I hate myself for being so severely bipolar (et al) that I don’t even try to make change when I know that every voice matters.

I feel this way often too....helpless... I just can't take on the world's problems when I have so many of my own. I think you are being hard on yourself. Also, if you cut down on your exposure to the news and such, it might help. Once you can get yourself to a good place then maybe you can make a difference. Maybe instead of doing a little bit with your one self/voice often, you will do something bigger and more impactful just once or twice....just my 2cents
