it's 2:30 am. I can't sleep

A lot on my mind. Life's been difficult lately. In a different way than when it use to be difficult. I'm trying to find more useful things to do with my life. I guess I feel like I'm just waiting to fall in love, I'm ready to. Until then, I'm just going to try to help others, change the world, put more good into it.
Is that messed up to say though? I'm ready to love? I mean I can always be a better person. I can always improve. So why am I just sitting here waiting? Am I really scared that improving myself more might just lead to get me conceited and not feel like anyone is good enough for me? Or do I really need to work on myself. I don't like people that drink, yet Saturday night I went and got drunk. After talking to a girl that afternoon who's going through a TON of shit, and her parent's can't pay for her to go see someone because they don't have money. But her dad's an alcoholic and has money for beer all the time. It's a fucked up situation. But I just go, and get drunk that night. I'm indirectly helping her dad be an alcoholic. I'm buying beer, it's helping the company, the company is giving him the beer. Maybe I'm hard on myself sometimes, but I wouldn't want it any other way. We are too soft on ourselves a lot. We CAN do more. We ARE power.
I just fucking hate certain things sometimes.
When I make a post like this, I can rant about things, and they are good, and they come from my heart. But it's not what's really on my mind. What's really keeping me up this late.
I'm going back to see my therapist 2mrw. Y? because yesterday wasn't a great day. For a moment, I got a familiar feeling of getting my heart ripped that brought me back a couple of years. It scared me. I'm glad I called. I'm glad I'm going to go talk to her. But for some reason, I feel a little ashamed. It feels like a step backwards. I don't know why exactly, but it does.
I'm still hopeful. I still want to do good things. I want to help people. So idk what's wrong really. I have a few friends I can talk to. They are good friends. Idk what's wrong. But I guess something is.
Maybe it's the bigger questions like, why am I at college? Why am I wasting my time in certain classes? What else could I be doing with my life? I'm running out of way to make myself grow as a person at UML. There's so much of the world out there. I want to go do stuff with different non-profits. I want to help more people, change bigger things. I'm not saying move away from helping single people one-on-one with struggles. I'm saying do more in addition to that.
I don't like sitting at home and watching tv, or playing xbox, or just doing nothing. It's not relaxing and it's not enjoyable for me.
I want to go make a difference. When people say "slow down in life" I don't think they're talking to me.

Hopefully today with my therapist goes well.
