Anon, I understand what you mean and I might've not fully explained my intent with my question earlier - for I do wholeheartedly agree with your answer.
My issue lies in having to deal with them, almost daily, and their neurosis and mental illness rubs off on me. I am fairly immune to their condition, yet it is tiring to deal with that nonetheless. Especially when I have to go through hoops to get to a better place in life and I have to finish my degree to get to there.
Hence I meant I'm looking for ways to stay sane while going through the system.
