Good. Why create more attachments and beliefs?

You are spontaneously going into the witness state.. it is utterly
unemotional. Perfect detachment. Does feel strange at first.. try to
appreciate the peace of it. It is truly a state of unconditional love.. no
conditions.. unconditional love feels like nothing, when you are there....
but others respond to it warmly. You may have noticed.. if you thought to
look.

 Goddess is surrendering you.. events happen at night when the ego is
surrendered in sleep.. and in the daytime you have the anaesthesia of the
witness state, and are kept from knowing about the processing that occurs
under that blanket of numbness. What you do not know about, you cannot
interfere with.

>Physically, I still have the sharp, shooting pains throughout my
>lower back and legs.

 Leg pains are associated with fears of moving forward.. and the
electric-ice, is the old memories, ancestral stuff coming out of the bones.
I used to get it too.. haven't in years although I feel it now in empathy
with your processing.

>cigarettes. Still eating the same sh**ty foods with no consequence.

 It's keeping you grounded.. those behaviors will fall away, on their
own when the time is right.

You still have it, it is simply being redirected underground, to
fuel your spiritual growth.
I have some ideas about the meaning of your dreams and visions, but
I chose to snip rather than translate..

    To cut through mental resistance, surrender body-first. Put the body
into the -forehead to the floor- posture of a Muslim at prayer... a posture
of submission and surrender. The mind will follow along. Another good
posture of submission is that of the surrendering wolf.. flat on your back,
arms and legs spread, throat, genitals and belly exposed and unprotected.

Maybe I *should* resist and suffer physically as other's have

 Silly Leo.. those things *are* the manifestation.. ego being
dismantled. No worries, you will be reborn anew when the time is right.

 Some Zen Buddhists would say you are blessed, to be so free of those
distractions. I think, essentially.. you have been down this road before..
so there is less work to do.

>If anything, I have less to contribute to the lives of others at this
>point in life - now that the parts of me people loved most are gone.

Check in with your friends about whether this is really true or just
your subjective judgment. I suspect those around you are seeing you getting
better.. calmer, more relaxed, less judgmental and argumentative.. peaceful
to be around, radiating love.

:) I think you may be right.. you don't see enlightenment as
anything special because it is normal for you. It was the same for me.. I
didn't know that not everyone has a light on inside their head.. for example.

>I give up. I'm too tired, frustrated, angry, depressed, and lonely to

:) Perfect. Surrender means "Give up". You are exactly where you need
to be.
 Blessings.....
