My life is pointless!

Life is hard. It has no intrinsic meaning. But it does have pleasure and values. Get a grip. I mean that in the most friendly way. Get. A. Grip. There are other people in the world living in far worse circumstances, and they don't have the luxury of venting on a forum, they are too busy scraping together the bare essentials to maintain life for themselves and their immediate family. Life can be overwhelming... Life can indeed be unfair... But there's no way around it. How you deal with it is what will decide your character. Take inspiration where you can find it. Try to learn to live with the paradox that you are both powerless and the most powerful thing in your universe. Your destiny is your own. It is also at the same time battered by an infinite number of things that you have no control over. Seek more than facts. Seek WISDOM. These moments of panic... they are natural. The Universe can go on without you... but it would be a different Universe.

Look up the proverb of the the Buddha and the 99 problems. That's my advice.

While I now there are other people that have things harder then me and I try to think about that its just I really am scarred that I am going to end up homeless and I don't want to have to wore about getting food and not having a roof over my head.
 
While I do get those thoughts are suicide some days are easier and some days are harder of course and today is one of those harder days. I fell that way because like I said I fell like all I do is wore and if I wasn't around I wouldn't have to fell like that so it fells like that would just be the easier way to not have to deal with these things. Just fells like all my life is down and down and down some more. No I am not going to end it but really the only thing that keeps me from doing that is god. If I didn't believe in god I don't think I would even be around any more. I think I would have already ended things it not for god even though I question him a lot and don't understand whey things have to be this hard.

I'm atheist and I'm not suicidal at all. Perhaps you want to consider drawing strength from things beside just religion. There's a lot of beauty in this world.
 
Didn't bother reading any of the posts. Because everyone has problems. Deal with it.

You are not special in any way, good or bad.

There is nothing that you don't like that you cannot change. If you have the will.

We may have empathy, but not sympathy.

While I fell that way because I do believe in god and I do belive that he loves me and cares about me so that makes me fell like there is at least some one that really cares about me. Its hard to go though hard times where you fell like there are not really any body that really cares about you besides just family. Yes family is important of course but its still hard when you don't have other people that you fell like really care about you.

Why do you need others to validate your worth? Believe in yourself. Then everything else, including the love of others, will follow. This will be my last reply to you. You're either listening to what myself and others are advising, or you're looking for a pity party. I sincerely hope it's the former and you're ready to take some positive steps.

Because I care a lot about what people think about me and its just hard when like I said you fell like no one cares that is all makes it fell like you have no one to talk to. I am not a confident person to begin with and so when things happened it makes it even harder for me to be confident. I am listing to you guys just letting out some of my frustration that is all I have a lot of hanger that has been building up so its a little of both of those things.
 
If you have to turn to "god" to feel loved. There is something seriously wrong.


Turn to alcohol like the rest of us.

Well, I care about you. At least to the extent I don't want you to do anything dumb to yourself, and I'm rooting for you to overcome this and succeed. Good luck getting yourself out of this funk.

I know I said my last reply was the last, but this time it really is lol
 
Watch this. It will make you feel better.

While think you its been a long process that just fell like its never going to end. While I did have some things that made things better a while back but still not even close to where I want things to be.
 
Have you considered seeking professional help? A psychologist, life coach or specialist of some kind. Because you seem unable to focus on the nitty-gritty, the tangible steps needed to reach your goals. It's get a girlfriend or bust, a higher-paying job or bust. There's no in-between, no intermediary success, no measure of growth.

Have you been really and actively doing something different to change your circumstances, or simply doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different outcome? If it's the latter -- and it sounds like the latter -- that's what's driving you half-mad.

While its just a want a new job and a girl friend and want not and I am not saying I need to get have ever thing happened at once its just I fell like I need something to happened because it would be a sing of progress of some sort. While lately I haven't been trying much for the job because I just hate putting in the time it would be like being in school and studding all the time to only get a f makes it fell pointless and like a waste of time and I just don't even now where to appliy at any more. So I have just kind of taken a break from trying. Now I am only look once in a while. So yeah putting in the effert with no results is what is driving me so mad.
 
I don't drink lol

Then your off to a great start. We all love you. And we don't.

Find something that makes you happy. If not here then go. Travel, new things, new people, new way of thinking.

I always keep a thailand fund. Whenever I have a divorce/break up I go east for a few months. It's amazing what being sucked off by a ladyboy while on opium can do to cheer you up.

You have a mild case of dyslexia, yes? Progress would be working on that. If your job applications are written I can see employers turning you away because of the typos and such, especially if they aren't apprised of your condition. Similarly online messages on dating sites.

When you say you try, it's just sending out more job applications and online messages yeah? No change up in resume or profile. Likely, nothing is changing for you because you haven't changed yourself.
 
I don't know what I am supposed to do. I work a job I hate cant find a new job no matter how much I try yet other people try way less and get a new job. My boss wont movie me up and I cant stand her. Just stuck and fell hopeless and worthless. I need to movie up but I cant and I cant find a new job either. I just don't know what to do any more. I don't know why I am alive and what the point is for me to be alive any more. I guess I am just alive so I can streghts out all the time has all I do is work and streghts out. Fell like even god doesn't like me or something. I wish I was dead. My life has no purpose at all. I am 25 no GF never been out on a date only have a few friends. Fell like if I died right now no one outside of my family would even care. Life is just pointless and I should just end it now. I have nothing to live for and I just keep getting older and older and nothing ever changes. Yes I am only 25 but I fell much older because all my life is woreing about crap. What's the point any more!

Just wait until you're in your 40's and going through this kind of crap.
 
You got family and friends to think about.
You feel yourself worthless for these reasons?
Dude, I'm out of a job, and 3 years older than you are.
I have no romance in my life.
I'm almost anti-social.
I only succeeded in getting my drivers license near the end of January this year, in my 4th try.

And I'm an optimist.
So your life is not worthless.
Chin up, look at people with lesser stature than you are, and brighten your mood.

Yeah I think I am dyslexic and I also make a lot of typos witch makes it look worse so I am trying to get better and looking over things and making sure I don't have typos. When it comes to my resume I do have the resume spelled checked and I also had a place that is supposed to help with finding jobs look over it. Now when it comes to dating sites it is probly more of a problem.

When you say you try, it's just sending out more job applications and online messages yeah? No change up in resume or profile. Likely, nothing is changing for you because you haven't changed yourself.

While when I say trying with applications I mean sending them out and going in and introducing my self and checking in with them often.

While I didn't get my license my self in till I was 23 my self and I don't have much of a social life either and gf heck no. Yeah I try to think about how I could have less.
 
I had a job I hated and I just quit a couple months ago. Obviously it's super risky and many would advise against it. Plus I had some savings, of course. I'm trying to get back to studying another degree and pursue a different career altogether. I felt like I couldn't do it when I was working in a job that just drained all my energy. Funny thing is this summer I'm actually going back to that same job for 2 months because because they asked and I need the money. But still, I definitely feel more free. In a couple of months I might be without a job and I might not get into school I intended, but at least I tried.

Don't know if that was any helpful, but I guess my point is that change is possible and sometimes you need to take risks to succeed.

Go watch this video from a popular philosophy channel that this gentleman hosts right now:

Truly inspirational message.
 
I'm 29. I've suffered from severe depression. When I was your age I was struggling to find a job after college. I haven't been on a single date since my fiancé and I broke up five years ago. Since then, I have a job I love and while I used to moan about not having a girlfriend and seeing all my friends get married, I love being single. Yes, there are times where I feel lonely and would like the comfort of a woman, I am content. I don't define my happiness by who I am or am not with; I do not judge my worthiness by my relationships. My happiness and worth are define by who I am and what I do; not by successes or failures in any category of life.

It's ok to wallow in self pity or depression sometimes. Fighting it makes it stronger. Accept it as the monkey on your back that it is, stand up and continue on. Depression never truly goes away, but it DOES get better, but only through acceptance and change in life style/thoughts/action.

You will get through this.
