How do you prevent madness?

By embracing it.

It depends on what you mean by madness. If by madness you mean the desperation and panic brought on by realizing that the structure we believe inherent in our world is one big LARP session whose rules are determined by sociopaths, then you kind of just have to roll with it.

It's actually pretty fucking hard.

There are a lot of pitfalls you can fall into in life. My main one is tolerating a job that I don't enjoy much at all. In fact, I hate most of the people there. I've enjoyed every single job before this and liked the majority of the people.

This has been driving me mad to the point of banging my head against walls.

a collection of vices

A girl that loves you

Why torment us like this?

I really like this answer.

The word pitfall troubles me because you can't climb out of a bottomless pit, you just keep falling. If you're caught up in multiple "pitfalls" then how would you ever stop falling?

or until you fall to your death

How can you drive yourself to ignore it?

These make you even more mad

Incrementally.

Read a chapter of a book every time before bed until it's a habit. Then make a new habit. Etc.

Endorphins from activities, doing things, exercising, interacting, going outside, living life, etc.

you do it to yourself r9k

I wouldn't say it's a matter of ignoring. I'm not quite sure how to put it, but as an example, every significant action I've taken in my life and even my current motivation for living has been driven by anime. And I'm currently in a position of national defense. I've realized that the rules are created by people who've convinced everyone else that they're right, even if they might not be.
