Everyone gives generic answers to these questions, they must not understand the true worthlessness of it all.

Life in general has no purpose. We are put on this world by purely random chance and nothing more. There are no objectives, no real rules, no good or evil, nothing. Your free to do anything you want, God has no power over what you do if he can't even lift a finger to help anyone else.

Life is meaningless for everyone. No one has any purpose. Btw I think I might do the same thing.....

Life is kind of a **** fest, isn't it? For a long time I believed there was purpose. If I could get away from those who made me miserable, everything would be fine. But the problem is that it doesn't end. There is war and murder and rape everywhere. People going out of their way to hurt other people.

There is injustice and greed, hate and evil intent. No matter where you look, life is a festering pile of ****. You don't have to worry about god because god isn't worrying about you. If god was concerned, babies wouldn't be murdered, innocence wouldn't be trampled upon, and priests wouldn't abuse.

That's when I realized that we are the evil we see in the world. And in that same vein, we are the good. So it doesn't matter what's around you, only what's inside of you. With a little effort, you can make a change, no matter how small. It's up to each and every one of us to find something worth living for. Be your own hope.

Get help. Go to a family member, teacher, doctor, pastor, whoever you trust that can help. That is first. Now let me tell you three things. 1. Suicide is forever. It takes away all possibilities. No matter how much it hurts, there is always a chance that tomorrow will be better. And with a little help, you may be able to make it better, all on your own. 2. The way you feel could be more about your brain chemistry and less about your actual reality. If that is so, the proper medication could make you see the world in an entirely different way. 3. I recently went to the funeral of a young man who committed suicide. It was devastating. The church was packed with people, all in pain, many who had tried to help him but were not qualified. He left a heartbroken mother, and a son that will never know him. When he killed himself, he didn't or couldn't think of the pain he would cause, but many of the people there will never get over his death. They will get on with their lives, but the pain will be there. My point is, ending your life is the wrong answer for you, and a very cruel answer for anyone who loves you—and I am sure there are many who do. Get help. GET HELP.

You haven't lived until you've found meaning in this life.

I went through 4 years of university without making a single friend - never going on a night out. At the height of my self harming my whole chest was covered in cuts. I have lived with depression for a number of years, I am very shy and have social anxiety. I have often been discriminated against for no good reason and through that I can see why such things as Civil rights, Aparhtheid and discrimination against Jews has occured - society at large can be so judgemental at times.

You've just go to persevere through this.

One thing that may help is to do some kind of volunteering - with a youth group, old peoples home, hopsital, orphanage, street children (local or abroad) such things can really open your eyes to those that are suffereing and those with whom you may find common ground with. Such experiences can give meaning and purpose to your life as well as providing a humbling experience whereby you are aware that there are others out there going through diificult times.

If your feeling down one thing you can do is close your eyes and smile at a thought that really makes you happy - and just hold that thought for a short time. Once you open your eyes you should feel better.

It sounds as if you could do with a boost of confidence as well as the opportunity to makes some new friends. Maybe join a local group - youth group, choir, football team, hill walking group - whatever your into. These are great ways to meet new people and make new friends in what should be a non-threatening environment. It's also advantageous because they've never met you before therefore unlike people you've seen before you can go all out to make a really good first impression - you've got nothing to lose in at least attending one group meeting whether it be football or whatever else.

Try perhaps to improve your image - or at least the way people perceive you. Dress smartly, walk with you head up, act confidently, smile. People who exude confidence and style are more easily accepted at times than those who dress plainly. You don't necessarily have to be ultra confident but you can act confident - much like an actor acts confident on screen. Look at how confident people act in public and try and pick up things which may help you. Don't let anyone put you down - let them know you can hold your own and don't take any s***.

It always seems impossible until it is done. (M. Mandela)

Best of luck to you

We all go through some level of heartache in life. I know i've had more than my share of it. Take a break from school work a weekend or two. Put yourself out there by going to social events (fundraisers, volunteering, charity events, etc) Go running, or even at a small coffee shop. Just start slow with small talk. It won't happen over night. It takes time. Start with coffee or lunch. If it develops further, next is dinner and maybe a movie. Another thing, be confident, NOT cocky.

You are young and lost. I understand because I was once you. I never respond to answers but your story compelled me to do so. You do have talent if you didn't then I wouldn't be responding to your post. That talent is to write. Don't do what you talk of because it will not solve any of your problems. It only shows weakness and believe me you are not weak. Only someone with great mental strength can share this story. I wish that I could say something powerful to make you see how important you are but I don't process that skill. Life is a give bestowed to you by the most high. Please don't their it away. You will be missed trust me. I wish I could say more. You will make new friends.

Look, God made YOU For a reason Not just so you can just 'Kill yourself' You have many things ahead of you... What about elders, There nearly dead, Do you want to kill yourself and not see whats gonna happen to-morrow? You might be lucky... You have a future ahead of you You want to see it right?? Life's what you make it... If you kill yourself you can't change your choice..

no dont give up on life,you have to make your self social maybe do some exersice to build muscle( google " p90x") and try to find your talent even if its small and if the sociaty your living in is not helping try moving to a new hood or school and be like wht i said before( social..etc)

so dont give up have hope,just try your hard and as i said if nothing happens try to move :)

I don't want to sound like a horrid person. But life is what you make it. I have no sympathy for you. Grow a pair and make something of yourself. No more feeling sorry for yourself. Everyone has problems. Just suck it up and deal with it.

God put everyone on earth for his purpose you just have to seek him. People often feel like they worthless when they are not for feeling what god has call them to be. You have to begin to pray and read his word and seek him. Because he is there even when you are feeling like no one is their. Just keep your head up and keep living push yourself over your feelings. you have to forgive the people who hurt you and your self and ask god(jesus)to forgive you for things you have done even if it is hard u going to have to push your way pass somethings. You have dreams and visions but u have to do them with god. And just keep moving forward because there is a light at the end and you will have testimony that going to help many people like u and u going to give them hope and not just any hope but to hope in god. So keep going strong.
