See, your problem is that you take everything way too seriously and don't know how to enjoy yourself anymore. It's very telling that you said you give headaches to yourself, it's obvious here that you're responsible for this and it's not some mental disorder that you don't have control over.
What you need is basically to change your entire mindset; the only problem here is that I don't know how you could do that since it came to me naturally (I used to be somewhat like you too). I can tell you though that life will be much easier if you achieve it; in fact I'd compare it to some sort of zen enlightenment.
I disagree. I think this is totally normal -- in fact, I have this problem! In my opinion, I think our society is crashing, people are becoming simpler, more jokes are stupid, not smart (e.g. South Park. Don't argue with me, you know I'm right).
Sometimes I can't handle these ridiculous people at my college that are always complaining about schoolwork and aching and blah, when life is so much worse in other places.
It's sort of like being beyond your time. But don't tell anyone that, lol. (;
I feel like that about society too sometimes but then again people have always thought this way (seriously, I read a text by Socrates complaining about kids in ancient Greece!). I figure it's just easier to go with the flow and not think about the stupidity surrounding us. Anyways if you don't believe me, just listen to Weird Al, he's got the right idea:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SMhwddNQSWQ&ob=av2e
Which song by Weird Al is it? I assume it's the " . . . because I got high" song that my friend used to sing to me constantly.
If it is, I've smoked weed and it hasn't distracted me enough. I'd rather read a book than consume a pleasurable feeling because knowledge is better used than blind sensations.
IIN that I make myself feel bad under "mainstream" circumstances?

It was actually Dare To Be Stupid.
You have a good point.
