And also, Bongman, you know it's also likely that you're just going through a very stressful time and just need to take a long ass break from everything.
There are lots of different ways of meditating. Now the one I use may not seem like the most spiritual but it is by far the most effective I've ever come across. Find a place were you wont be disturbed for the time you want to chill out. Pick a goal for the this time. It could be relaxation or visualization or anything you want. Now to clear the mind you just have to tell it to shut the fuck up. Over and over and over until you find a place in your mind where you feel like you are in control. You don't have to swear if you don't want to. Shhhhhhhhh works just as well. If you want to have a quite place in your mind you have to be the boss of your world. You can then do you thing. I do a lot of visualization and if at any point my brain tries to side track me I just shush it get back to what it is I am trying to achieve.

As for relaxation give this a try. Start at the top of you body and tense up. Scrunch your forehead... the muscles around your eyes... then release. Notice the difference between being very tense to being very relaxed (After doing this for a while you just have to think about relaxing and you will be able to just do it). Then work down your body... tensing and relaxing until you reach your toes. You can guide yourself by saying... my forehead is now relaxing as you go along.

My explosive temper has taken over, and I am in a constant state of anger. I am starting to lack basic emotions, and empathy. I just feel cold, and void. I lost all connections with others except my twisted mind. I don't feel, at least not in a way I remembered. I am fucked up. Completely. I choked a friend the other day.
