Re: "I keep seeing all of this injustice and corruption..."
I agree with corscada. Get involved in organizing. I also recommend learning about dialectical materialism to help you with organizing. When you start working on a cause and improving your understanding of systemic problems, and see others working on problems together, you can enact change without resorting to rash individual acts which have a lower impact than long-term steady organizing in groups. Working in organizations comes with many challenges and flaws but if you focus on the goals, then your setbacks and and failures are learning opportunities for better strategies going forward. If you need time to reset yourself and process your feelings, of course do that. But I hope you get involved in some organizing when you can.

I keep seeing all of this injustice and corruption everywhere I look. I always thought that I'd feel better once I turned 18 and would be able to vote and drink and stuff; but I still feel as powerless as ever. I sometimes have dreams about randomly catching a train to London and doing something practical; but that's pretty damn unrealistic. What the fuck can I do to make things better?
