Hi RoseofLima,
I apologize ahead of time--this turned out way longer than I expected. I will speak to your mind first, and hopefully to your heart at the end.
The things you mention in previous posts can be found in our Catholic heritage as well. Saints like Athanasius, Basil, Gregory Nazianzen, Ephrem, Gregory of Nyssa, Gregory Palamas, and others who give us the Eastern expression are completely Catholic--they are not just Eastern.
There's only one reason you should choose a religion. It's the true one. I realize you agree with many things in the Orthodox Church, that's a nice coincidence, but agreement is not true faith--we must believe what God has revealed not because we agree with Him, but because of the trustworthiness and love of He who reveals it for our own good. You have to make sure this is what God has revealed and it is not just what you wish He revealed (not saying you're doing this, just warning against it in case).
Is the Catholic Church or the Eastern Orthodox Church the one true Church? Have you looked into Oriental Orthodox Church as well? They too make a good claim. I realize one of their churches probably is not nearby, but if they are the true Church, I don't think it would be an excuse to join a different communion just because they are not nearby. In my look into both of these a while back, I discovered that it is impossible to choose one Orthodoxy over the other--especially given their joint declarations of late, their really is no mark that distinguishes one from the other--yet they are separate. The Scriptures and the Fathers however testify to Peter and his chair as the source of unity--the unshakeable rock that will never go into schism so that all men will know where the true Church is. God has left us a mark to be able to discern this truth.
As for irreverence at the liturgy and in the Church in general, look to the saints on this issue. St. Basil the Great and St. Catherine of Siena are perfect examples (and one is Eastern and one is Western). They had it much worse than we have here (and I know you have it pretty bad from what I've read from you--trust me, they had it worse.). They didn't pack up and leave. In St. Basil's time especially, he laments the fact that the faithful were shunning the churches because of the abuses and heresies and that the faithful were praying in the desert instead--the pope also completely ignored his pleas for help, which brought great pain and feeling of betrayal to his heart. But what was his response? How did he handle it? He did so with all pateince, bearing the difficulties he was given (he was even physically persecuted by the church leaders in his area). St. Catherine also describes completley butchered Masses often with feigned consecrations. But what God tells her in the Dialogue is to suffer through them, offering reparations and prayers--consumed with love and weeping with tears of fire. Her love, tears and sweat would wipe the face of the bride soiled by bad priests and lay people.
You know, the Church has gone through some rough times since day one. God always raised up great saints to get her back on track--some were canonized, but most suffered in anonymity. Just their pateince, faithfulness, and especially unwavering love always kept us going. But I notice something happening now. I see the potential saints we are being sent just getting up and leaving for Orthodoxy or the SSPX. Maybe this happened before too, or maybe this is those dangerous times when even the elect will have their faith shaken terribly. Either way, it breaks my heart to see it.
I know you have been broken terribly in your life, but I can tell that that brokenness has allowed you to love in such a radical way. I see the broken women Our Lord has used as implements of His love, to draw souls to Him, to His Church, and to purify and save His Church during the great storms--women like St Catherine of Genoa, Bl. Anna Marie Taigi, St. Teresa of Avila, St. Catherine of Siena, St. Rose of Lima, St. Gemma, and on and on. They all did very little quantifiable work, but the fire of their love, their patient suffering, and the power of their tears did more good for souls, the Church, and the world than they could have known on this earth--they could only know when they got to Heaven. They suffered and loved just like their Beloved when the whole world and even much of the Church was against them. Their children and their spouses were also sanctified by their love (especially see the complete 180 taken by the husband of St. Catherine of Genoa at the end--I think her story is especially good for you to see, as she and her husband had to live celibately eventually--and her husband, who had been very unfaithful throughout their marriage, had a complete conversion and became saintly himself).
All I can ask is for you to prayerfully evaluate why God has placed you where you are now and whether you are meant to leave. Ask why God has allowed you to suffer through what you have suffered and what you continue to suffer through--our Crosses are healing and strengthening and fulfilling--that is the great paradox of our faith, and the great power of true love. You are someone I know Our Lord is using to draw souls to the truth, and to pour forth His love in your home, in the Church, and in the world and I'd hate to see you leave.
Please pray--I know you will--and seek the help of those courageous women I mentioned. I will pray for you as well.
