I hear you but the problem is, this actually does happen - despair is a well-known trigger to enter a final (on the RHP) stage of renouncing attachments, and Self-realisation.
I no-shit blogged about this myself in this thread:
In trad. Hindu lineages, who have for all the faults ptreserved the concept that self and Self are one thing more than any other group, having life-wrecking events and renouncing the world through despair and pain is considewred a legitimate rerason to enter as a sannyasin - it’s a symbol the manifest world no longer wishes to cater for this person, that they’re on their way “home.”
Now, I took the different route once I had that experience but this tradition is a real thing and they didn’t make it up for shits n’giggs.
You’re either a thing bobbing haplessly in a sea of other things, pushed round by events you can barely understand, or, you accept your role as semi-aware co-creator of your own reality, and that all things in it are tools for your ascent.
Yes, it sucks, and yes muh starving African children and rape victims. Most of the forms the Sopurce takes are not operating from mastery of the Divine Paradox.
You’ll only stand a chance of REALLY helping the world’s troubled emanations though when you have stepped outside the box (literally, I mean the fucking cube symbolism, Saturn, do your homework) and seen what’s actually going on around you.
That’s on you, I like you and trespect you, but this IS “becomne a living god” not "become a haless victim of events who has to avoid anything too scary. 
I say that with goodwill towards the seed of theogenesis within you and everyone reading this.
