What do you feel is your purpose in life? Comment below. If you have not found yours, give this video a watch: ruclips.net/video/wHHmHeSY1hA/видео.html
To achieve my dream :D
To love my family and to love someone and that which is my best friend dylan.
I love your videos, thank you so much. You've made me understand myself, I'll always be in dept
Psych2Go I don’t know....
Haven't found my purpose. It's a work in process.
I feel so depressed I can’t even cry. I just lay there empty.
Damn
same... I don't have anything to cry for. I'm not sad just empty.
It’s like... my eyes hate me
Same
Same for me. This is called emotional burnout.
"The only person that's going to help you is yourself". Well, I'm fucked.
Hey, you can do it! The most trustworthy person to you is yourself. It's a relationship that takes time to build up but know it is totally worth it! And guess what.. You're totally capable of it!
I can't explain myself also there is no one to listen to me 😭😭😭😭😭
I don't know why I laughed at this but thanks!
same
Hahahahahahha, this is so relatable.
it's weird that strangers who you've never met in your life tend to relate better with you than those who you see everyday.
It happens to me all the time. This is because every people you meet in your lifetime have purpose and are meant for you to teach you something or share the same thoughts and feelings and keep you on the right track, reminding you that you are not alone on this Earth. We are all connected but it happens that we live in wrong area and sometimes is best to change that and get out of the comfort zone.
Yes happens to me aaaaaaaaalll the time it’s like you can open up better online than like in real social life
Yeah sad.
Yeah
Yeah,but it doesn't help at all, maybe deep down who I wanted to understand me are the people around me.
Yea, this hit spot on. Somewhere along the way I stopped having dreams, pushed people away so I didn't get disappointed.
I push people away so THEY don't get disappointed in me.
@@akmal94ibrahim I understand, you have low self esteem.Im the same way a lot of the time.
For me, it was to prevent myself from hurting others. I hung on too much, let my heart out and ended up having it cut away from me because I was a horrible individual and an immature idiot.
Personally, I think it's better I stay alone - less mistakes that way, less a chance of getting hurt.
@@burmecianknight9829man. That’s how I feel to the T
Yeah I agree, I’ve seen people studying like their life depends on it and still scoring much less than me when I started studying a week before. And many girls work on their fitness yet they fall behind me while running just because my legs are longer. It may sound stupid for someone reading but honestly I feel so done. Like I don’t get up from my bed if I don’t have to go somewhere. I get invited to parties frequently and my parents push me to go yet I won’t. And I’m always in pyjamas but there’s my mom buying tiny shorts, designer stuff, anything someone of my age would want, just for me to throw it into my wardrobe.
It is probably lack of intimacy. You understand everyone but not having anyone who understands you.
That's literally my life
Ikr
😭
This applies even more to Creatives..we view the world in a such a different way..and we are get called crazy for being truthful.
@@sambuzzmusic facts
People keep telling me that life goes on, but to me that's the saddest part.
💔💔😞
Well, you can work on improving your life right now in the present to have a better future :) . You can do it , really!
:)
:(
Its like life goes on with out you but your just want to go back in time to when everything was better. At least thats the case for me.
I hate how whenever someone finally understands me and theyre just listening to my problems,its good and all but after all that i feel like im just dragging people into my own problems and being a burden.
Thecatwantstosayhi yes, I relate to this so much, I didn’t read anything like this in the comment section and it’s good to relate
Yeah me too, sometime i felt like I 'over'shared my personal life
@@aaisyahsyah8327 same plus people aren't interested to know 'my' probs when they're going through much bigger things
@@vaidehi_n exactly, I always think that other people have it harder than me, I felt like I'm not grateful enough.
Well hope we feel better soon 💕 thanks for replying :)
Darn, true.
I feel empty, tired, weak, ill like as If I’m dead
I can’t understand people anymore
I can’t connect with them, it feels like I’m the darkness trying to get along with all these beautiful and shiny people
I feel like I’m boring, and nobody understands me, I regret literally everything I say so sometimes I think I should just shut up and never talk again
I’m with you, and I have been once before. The way I solved it is probably not healthy though. I tried using the downsides of depression to my advantage. I lost the ability to care, use that to help open up about it, if they say something mean well, you won’t care will you?
Yeah, definitely not a healthy way to go about things, don’t do that
I'm there too
I have come a long way in two years, but it took a lot of pain and stress, and vomiting... and not sleeping.
Everything got worse without me noticing. And the whole time, I thought:"this is good, I'm thinking deeper"
If I didn't have such an amazing school counselor... I don't know what I would have done.
ASK FOR HELP!
I always thought that my problems wern't big enough to tell my parents. And when I got the courage to, they dissmissed it and said I was fine...
@ObeseMommy @Super_Sonic_gamer714
I'm here as well, I solved it by...overthinking and disconnecting from EVERYONE (even my familly)
I became cruel and insecure and develloped a TERRIBLE SOCIAL ANXIETY even with people I knew. My brain was constantly on survival mode, and yet I barely ate or slept... I understand you guys.
It' just pure torture isn't it? Especially when you feel alone in the world.
I SEND SUPPORT!💜💜💜
I'm right there with you humans just ain't shit.
Emptiness can be a sign that a person lacks fulfilment in life and doesn't enjoy the current living situation

FELT
This is very true. What did you experience personally?
Psych2Go confused about the future of my life
Exactly
I remember you!
I used to cry at everything, now I can’t cry at all.
Bandana sharma me too
Same,i am like im loosing my mind,i felt like my sanity was hit by a truck but i didnt actually *felt* anything,the deeper words doesnt mean anything to me
I forgot when is the last time i cried. Couldn't even drop a tear during family's funerals. I guess when you experienced a shitty life for 10-20 years, you really don't care about anything anymore
Same. I feel so empty that there is no emotion left out to express.
Gia Tesla we’ll fight through this we just have to keep our eyes on the bigger picture. Also, when I take a cold shower and meditate it gets that emptiness away. Ik it’s difficult, that’s why I’m looking at this video...
Have you ever had this feeling when you want to cry but you just can’t
Reem Hashim i feel you. If only one person ask if we are okay. Only one. Is it too much to ask? Sometimes all i need is a hug, but even that is impossible.
I don’t often allow myself to cry, so I can only cry if I’m extremely sad
Constantly
yeah, I felt that way almost all the last year, and when I was forcing myself not to do it, it didn't felt wrong, but when I past for a huge emotional event and ended crying like never, I felt soo relieved. From that day I allow me to cry whenever I can, because that is something so natural that can't be suppressed, and there's nothing wrong whit that
Last night I cried watching finding Dory, just imaginnig how it felt to lost and forget her family, and even then they didn't forget her or give up waiting for her to return. Also because the way that society treats persons like dory who has some disorder (but that's me wanting to talk about that awsome movie)
Anyway I whish that you find a way to allow yourself to cry, one peaceful and not traumatic as mine, but something that sets you free from that thing that holds you from crying. It will only make your stronger.
It just happens to me all the f*cking time !
we should really create a group of support where we listen to each other’s concerns😭
the first rule of fight club is you do not talk about fight club
I agree
I also agree
agreed
don't forget to add me 🥲
I feel like it's really hard to find people like me. I don't relate to anyone. Not my friends, not my coworkers, not even my family...
I feel the same :(
same
yup.
Me too
Me too, you understand people but don't have someone who understands you.
I think I'm lonely because I'm tired of listening to everyone's problems but not having a "me" to listen to mine
There is finally someone out here who feels the same
the main reason why im always burned out.im always saving others when i forgot to save myself first. i now see my value and worth.
...relatable
:(
I truly recommend counseling as I had the same problem and that help did alot
same I feel like I'm just used to solve people's problems but not mine
everyone has fake friends. but everyone has been a fake friend to someone. even if you don't realise it.
Nope. I've never been a fake friend. I am loyal and devoted so it's tiring not finding people the same way
@@littenfire3563 you've defiantly traded someone like it, whether you realised it or not. and its nothing to be ashamed of.
@@Bishalysl I never even had friends
I have a friend and our friendship has dried out, we have known eachother since birth. He was always very clingy and at first I didn’t mind, but later on it started bothering me a bit. Then we went to highschool and split ways. After 1 year not talking to eachother he asked if I wanted to hang out, having nothing to do I said yes and thought it could be fun, but nothing more. Then he started asking me everyday if I wanted to hang out or play games online, eventually I said yes because I felt guilty. This has been going on for over a year. He knows I don’t like when people are clingy but it seems he doesn’t care, I’ve said countless of times I want to be alone for a while, guess what? It did nothing. I don’t hate him but I just want this friendship to end, nothing we do seems fun anymore and all we talk about is the past. Hanging out with him drains my energy and makes me stressed, especially when he bothers me everyday. He has tons of other friends he hangs out with so I don’t understand why he is like this. I feel like he has been trying to keep me on a leash or that he is a parasite who’s slowly drinking my blood and to be honest this is why I think I feel empty and stressed. Everyday having to deal with him is draining my energy and I can’t ever focus on the things I want to. Why not tell him I don’t want to be his friend anymore? Because I know it’ll hurt him a lot and I don’t have the strength to do it, especially after knowing him since birth. I am slowly trying to get out of his life like the year we both went separate ways. This way things will end naturally and no one hurt. But his constant effort of trying to keep me on a leash is making it hard. I guess right now I am that fake friend. Sorry I just had to vent somewhere.
Local weeb you’re gonna have to make a choice here, my guy. This might sound a bit harsh, but being nice to someone isn’t a good argument if you’re not nice to yourself. You’re gonna have to look deep within yourself and ask what it is that you want. Whether or not you choose to tell him or not, you will live with the consequences. Hold your silence, you’ll keep feeling drained and it’ll only get worse. But if you speak your mind, things will change. I can’t say how, but isn’t the light at the end of the tunnel worth the risk of going in the dark?
There’s really no “everybody wins” in this situation, so you’re gonna have to take some time to think. But don’t you think you deserve to be kind to yourself?
Think on it, and when you decide on what to do and why it was the choice you’re going for, hold your ground. From experience, I can tell you that at first it might feel like a wrong choice, but you’ll come to realize that standing up for yourself couldn’t have been a better choice.
Yea I feel very empty. I have felt empty since 2019. I get excitement in small doses then it's back to empty. I think it made me attach myself to yet another unavailable person just to feel something and my thoughts of them kept me going for a bit...we aren't speaking now -mutual no contact agreement and I've gone back to feeling empty. Trying to rid my thoughts of them knowing none of this is good for me. I feel broken
OMG! You just wrote my story word for word. This is exactly my current situation 😭. I find that I rely on my relationships as my only source of happiness and when they don't meet up to it I feel so helpless and empty. I know that I really need to find happiness from within me but I really don't know how to do that.
Yeah. I have no deal friends, people I talk to sure. But no one asks to hang out, no one asks if I’m going somewhere nothing. Not even my parents. And getting in relationship was the worse thing I could’ve done
I have real friends and speak often but I feel empty…. Idc about anything anymore…..
How about now Do you still feel empty? How's life?
I feel empty because I feel like no one knows the real me. They all just know a part of it, but there is nobody with who I can fully be myself
Same thing here. I can't even open up to some people before they start criticizing why I am the way I am, and how mental illnesses are "just in your head". Now I haven't officially been diagnosed, but I have very strong symptoms of social anxiety, and there is a possibility I have ADHD too.
damn the feels

This is helpful.
I'm a 34 year old woman I and never used to feel envy or jealous of other people's wealth, holidays and happy memories.
But now I'm starting to feel these feelings and it's new to me.
It makes me sad that I missed out on so much growing up compared to people who get to go to places like Dubai and party with friends.
I hope these feelings go away somehow as I get older.
I think it's because I was a carer for my mother since my teens, so I never got to gain a career or financial independence. 😔 💔
Hi dear, I am the same age as you and started to get those feelings now and then. I never had those feelings before.. Everybody's life is different and the life that people display on their social media is not their real life. As we understand this slowly, the feelings go away 🙂
I thought it was just me who's going through this but after watching this video, it helps me better understand what I'm currently going through.
I'm 39 and felt loose everything in life.
Even my DP is not mine, it was a biker pic who travelled to Laddakh and this was my dream but cannot fulfill due to family responsibilities. Now my family no need to me.
Now feeling is life is exhaust.😢

Fun fact about loneliness: Some scientists suggest the effects are just as bad if not worse than smoking. But please, don't use that as an excuse if someone tries to break up with you. It doesn't work.
-Pedantia science channel
Yes, I think you're also referring to loneliness.
Yeah you could die from a heartbreak it's just as dangerous.
It's likely riddle with red flags, can't help to feel like it's saying burping can cure lost of hearing, or driving a motorcycle intoxicated makes you sobor.
I laughed at the last line, sorry.
Is it bad that the only time i genuinely feel lonely is when I'm around people?! Huh, the irony of that sentence.
I remember several years ago heroin addiction destroyed my life, I suffered from severe depression and a mental disorder until I was recommended to psilocybin mushroom treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly I'm 8 years clean now. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.
they saved you from death bud, let's be honest here mushrooms are one of the most amazing things on this planet I wish people could all realize. they can solve a lot of problems, more than mental treatments.
yes, that's right, I researched and found out that shrooms are helpful in many ways but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable source I can reach out to
Yeah, but I'm pretty sure of Sporeville he's an intelligent mycologist.

My friends are always like: "Hey, are you okay?" "Are you sure you're okay?" I don't get why they're worried about me. I have a sad/empty expression all the time at school. I'm completely fine! I just wish people could give me a little space, though..
I don’t feel empty, I just feel useless. No matter how hard I try or how much I care I always mess everything up. Then I just get made fun of by everyone around me and they view me as a lesser person. I just can’t keep up with it
Hey, I sometimes feel the same... I feel like everything I do, I mess it up and make my family get dissapointed in me, I feel as if I was in a videogame and the friendliness bar went down lol, but seriously, try to get help, I'm too scared to tell my parents all the things I've felt and to tell them to bring me to a therapist, but you can try at least...
Yeah that always happen to me and even when im used to it, it still....hurts my heart
Same :( I think we feel this way because we live in a very judgemental society.
@@inesrozic1873 yeah definitely
Seems pretty unlikely that you *always* mess *everything* up and *everyone* makes fun of you.
Think about that for a second, why don't you. What if *i* told you that stuff? Would you believe it, or just think "wow, that guy's an a-hole." but you let yourself talk that way.
You're using filtering and black & white thinking. Thought distortions. Look into them

What people forget is that life has never been easier. The majority of people nowadays will tell you life is extremely difficult for youth today, but what they forget is that humans have never had more ease. If you compare life today to life a thousand years ago the difference would be colossal. Today we dont have to hunt for food, we dont have to live in caves for shelter, we dont have to suffer from extremes of temperature, were less likely to die from illnesses, we dont have to travel for months in horse and carriage. Life is extremely easy and yet suicides are on the rise. Why? What humans excel at is struggling. We are extraordinary at dealing with pressure and hardship, you only have to take one look at history to know thats true. I say to anyone who is suffering from depression (especially long term depression) and a lack of purpose, the best thing to do is to do more. Get involved in a worthy struggle. Take on more responsibility and shoulder more stress, just make sure that its positive stress and not negative. (To name a few: Regular physical exercise and sports, career and hobby goals, learning new skills, taking care of the home and environment). Workouts are especially important; to endure pain in the gym does great benefits to your body as well as your mind.
“If a man can find meaning in a concentration camp - where he has been imprisoned for no wrongdoing of his own. Where there is no end in sight - then we can find meaning in our daily lives where we think none exists”
Dont let depression kick your ass and dont use depression as an excuse not to live. Get after it
Don't rely on virtual people. None of these people in the comment section give a shit about you. What I've managed to learn so far in my life is that I should stop expecting generosity from people. Everyone is on their own

Me personally, I feel disconnected from not only just myself but everybody I had a meaningful connection with. I do struggle also with this loneliness I feel from cutting off friends and family. I was close with as well while I was coping with weed and my depression. Also, I had a realization that I am a people pleaser, and I can be so kind to others, but I’m very hard on myself. Like I really do desire to see people happy and inspired, but I don’t feel the same way with myself, so I have no boundaries. I pray that I do find a solution to this madness because although I do feel like the sense of purpose in my life is to inspire I do feel like I don’t have any connection to myself? That makes me happy inside
I'm trying to switch things around and wish this on both sides.
It comes from childhood and past experiences. I have been healing trauma wounds.
Hey @921mos
I've felt the same way for a long time it's like I'm stuck in this void like I'm disconnected or living in a different reality.
It's Been taking on my emotions so if you've figured it out please tell me
Its sucks to be in a bad situation and not knowing what to do about it
Look, brother, it is normal for you to feel empty, as nothing fills your heart.
In the heart of every human being there is an instinct that drives him to search for his God, for a strong entity with whom you feels strength, security, and accomplishment in the quest to reach his paradise..
And surely you have heard that you should be busy with any goal so that it will be like paradise for you and fill this heart and make you feel accomplished in being close to it...but everything in this world is an illusion and will end as soon as you die, so the smart one is the one who works until after his death...to reach the true paradise.. No one can create a true paradise except the one who created you and this world with all its details. He is the only one capable of that.. and the rest are all lying charlatans who have nothing..
My brother, I invite you with the message of the prophets... the message of Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad, may God be pleased with them all... to believe that in God alone He has no partner... in exchange for a paradise as wide as the heavens and the earth, in addition to tranquility and peace of mind that you have never tasted in your life. Your whole life will change, as working with a full heart is completely different from an empty heart that needs to be charged every minute, ie digital intoxicants..
Bro why does everyone have to feel like this. Why are we made like that.
This comment reminds me of my brain's routine every night, start having thoughts about the existence and things like "what if..." it's hard to explain it, I can't even explain just why I have those thoughts, I don't want to think about death or the existence, or how it's possible to be here, or thinking "oh, when I grow up, I won't be anything, I won't be "someone" in the life" i don't know bro, I don't even know why am I telling this.
Good Night
I ask that to myself sometimes. But I never had an answer to it.
😭😭😭
It’s because human relationships are the most important things in life but society today have lost touch of that and focused too much on superficial/materialistic lifestyles, social media alienation too
Apparently some in the comment section thinks Jesus loves us.. I think not or his dad doesnt.. Look at all this emptiness.. We need people who understand each other not Jesus... He isn't even around.. It´s so sad that so many feel disconnected. Makes me feel somwhat less alone about it but still bad its like that. Hope people get to feel better and find better people as well.
The emptiness have turned me into a feeling less person, I can even bother to cry or get angry anymore.. and it’s killing me, I try so hard to be sad, angry or happy.. but it’s so hard.
You need to tell someone. They could take you to a therapist. Fix broken relationships. Because thats unhealthy. And even if it’s uncomfortable, go for it! Nobody’s gonna judge you or something.
And if you feel that, it’s because you’re afraid.
Sometimes you need to make a sacrifice to help your soul. You might commit suicide.
Please, tell someone
Reaching out for help doesn’t make you weak.
Same, looks like i am becoming a robot,and i became a cold person.

Same, it's called emotional numbness. I ve been suffering from it as a result of Trauma. I still don t know how to solve it completely on my own, but I tried so hard to open up my emotions and lately I used music, Love music for love and happy emotions, sad music for sad ones, and try to focus on how the emotion will be expressed in your body, it kinda helped a little bit, I feel that the emptyness inside was a bit lifted but I still go back to some confusing moments when I start asking myself about who I am and who are these people around me. But I hope it would be usefull for u.
I feel empty because to me life is boring and meaningless no matter what I try to do about it and I hardly ever get impressed by anything anymore, I guess it was better when I was still a child..
You're not alone millions of people feel the same way you feel life is empty it has no meaning just to suffer that's the meaning then you get old have health problems then die the truth is our only hope is God
@@angelmartinez1623sorry but seriously why nobody seems to understand that coming out of nowhere and says that "god exists" or "god doesn't exists" makes the people that don't think like you uncomfortable
I agree, life as a kid was fun but then it began to suck when I reached my teens and have finished school but still feel stuck in life.
Indeed. i wish i could be a kid forever, that have nothing to worry about.
Omg!! this is exactly how I feel. This world is boring af to me. 🤦🏽♂️
spending all my time at work, no relationships or intimacy, I DEFINITLY haven't made peace with my traumatic childhood, I have dreams but no time or motivation to chase them. fear is holding me back. life starts when fear ends. I've tried overcoming my fears fo a decade. I'm tired. I'm tired of trying. I'm tired of life. I'm tired of living.

The worst feeling is when this void is so deep you feel it has no end, and this infinite void is fulfilled and overflowing with something you can't control, yet the void is still here and....
boi youre drowning inside yourself
Ya
my point exactly. lost is so different than empty. this video was more about being lost. empty is about the literal void, despite what your life contains or what you know.
I had a nightmare where I was falling through a never ending void until I woke up with I can only describe as a feeling of pure dread and pain

Disease is better than this feeling, so bad. Disease can kill you at some point in life but this feeling kills every second you live.
Yes every second 😔😔
no.. you are wrong about that.. ask those who are suffering with deadly diseases in hospitals beds
I am afraid you don't know how emptiness feels, it's the worst feeling in that feeling you feel alone even with your own family and friends.
@@vike9527 I'm afraid you don't know the amount of physical discomfort caused by diseases.
@@Ash01010 a good amount of people like us would rather have died throughout some point in our life, and before you say we all felt like that at one point, a good amount of us have tried, some more then others. If your gonna be comparing emotional pain to physical pain, telling people that it's not that bad, then you should probably leave. Fun fact; the older you get the more likely it is that you cry from emotional pain rather then physical
Once again, even having a deadly disease feels better then feeling like a hollow, meaningless husk of a person. It's like your just breathing, not even living.
It's so frustrating. I just feel so hollow. I'm so lost in life and I have no idea what I want to do. I'm still young, and supposedly to have fun. I lost passion for the things that I used to love and enjoy doing. I do have friends, but it just feels like I'm invisible, not needed. I can't even cry or anything at all.

@@hiii9579 hey wassup . Even though I don’t know you I want to tell you I love you ❤️😘.
I'm 25. I lost interest in much of anything. I'm currently unemployed, underachieved and inexperienced. I'm supposed to be on my prime. I used to have so many dreams, ambitions. But I feel like I have already drifted away from it because no matter how hard I try in achieving it, all the results are questionable. Nobody wants to hire me. And knowing how experienced other people are, it makes me doubt myself to the point that I can no longer do anything. I feel like a piece of trash.
" You don't have any meaningful relationships, you feel detached from the people around you"
Literally what I have been thinking about myself for the past month.
I don't think people want meaningful relations any more as they take wrok...
"work"
"past month" shit I've been thinking that my whole life
Yes!!
i could relate to that so much
I really don't know what I want in life everything is so negative these days.
coz the world is messy..dreams without happinnes and contemtnent is nothing.
That has to change even for me its hard sometimes
Same

Try finding something positive like even if it's so little it might change the way you feel!😄
Summary/ notes:
- 1) establish a stronger sense of identity: ask what do I enjoy, what goals so i set, how do i improve
- 2) close relationships - small circle of people you can open up to and like being around
- 3) Past
- >>> 4) Have dreams and goals
Thanking youu

1- i enjoy everything and don't enjoy anything
2- i open up for anyone but there's nothing to open up about
3- no past

Exactly what i really feel now. I don't know where to find motivations, i don't know where to start all of the things that i need to do :(
I don’t think I’ve ever known who I was. Most of the time I feel cut off and empty. Like I’m a fake person with fake emotions and fake friends, pretending I’m interesting but failing
you're not failing, you're probably so good at it that you've gotten your near and dear ones convinced that you're okay. It's not healthy. It's time to go the therapist, because they might be able to make you feel again, even tho it's scary to face the truth right now.

I believe everyone should take therapy bc it’s a really good thing to have but My family is a little tight on money rn and idk it’d feel kinda strange to explain to them that I need to go to a therapist when nothing bad has happened and I’m not sure that it’s something I need. I’m planning on going in the future when I can afford it myself but right now I’m just taking the time to figure myself out and it’s definitely gotten better.

Same here sadly
oh my god. This video hit the spot.
I quit my first job due to burnout, have spinal back pain at the age of 26, and broke up with my girlfriend last week.
I chose to quit my job because I saw myself obsessed with it, and only that. I also felt isolated as I began to meet less and less people, and I was even shocked that some who I thought were good people had really dark sides inside them.
It's been almost a week being off work, and I always described it as a "void" inside me to my therapist, and that I kept trying to fill it in with people, hobbies, and recently my job. I hated how gullible I was in the past, and reject every single moment before my mid-20s.
Even my girlfriend, she's such a wonderful person. She even offered to be at my side a bit more as I'm going through a lot. But I saw myself dragging her into my problems, to fill that emptiness inside me. I didn't want her to be in pain, as she's already feeling sorry, and chose to let her go. What I'm feeling now is something I should face alone, and hopefully, we'll meet again as friends like we promised.
In the meantime, I recently started to meet people who I can comfortably open up to, and some of which can relate to my past. It felt comforting, and even started to remind what I was passionate in the past. I still think I'm wasting time and that I should do something in my life, but now I see I can do something; find who I truly am.
Sorry for the long comment, I'm so emotional nowadays. Wanted to say thank you for the great video.
Well, that's not just you @ericpark17. I also feel the same. I think I could do way much better in the past if I had known for just one second how I would end up. Whenever, a movie ends or I read a person's blog how their childhood finished or their high school came to the end of the road 🛣️ or I am getting older (I am fifteen by the way) I feel sorry and down in the dumps for no reason. It is like my heart is cutting opening my chest 🧰, then I cry telling myself I will do just fine; however, it appears nothing is getting fine so far. I am isolated, not have anyone to share it with. After having watched multitudes of web series and movies, I recognized how well I could have done.
My bf too broken up me with me as he was feeling same emptiness feeling like you. 1 week before he was acting fine to me and now suddenly he broken up which left me so much miserable this time. Because he came out of no where and did this. I am dying every single day :(

“You don’t have any meaningful relationships in your life.” … ouch
Look, brother, it is normal for you to feel empty, as nothing fills your heart.
In the heart of every human being there is an instinct that drives him to search for his God, for a strong entity with whom you feels strength, security, and accomplishment in the quest to reach his paradise..
And surely you have heard that you should be busy with any goal so that it will be like paradise for you and fill this heart and make you feel accomplished in being close to it...but everything in this world is an illusion and will end as soon as you die, so the smart one is the one who works until after his death...to reach the true paradise.. No one can create a true paradise except the one who created you and this world with all its details. He is the only one capable of that.. and the rest are all lying charlatans who have nothing..
My brother, I invite you with the message of the prophets... the message of Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad, may God be pleased with them all... to believe that in God alone He has no partner... in exchange for a paradise as wide as the heavens and the earth, in addition to tranquility and peace of mind that you have never tasted in your life. Your whole life will change, as working with a full heart is completely different from an empty heart that needs to be charged every minute, ie digital intoxicants..
I’m telling you, this quarantine thing is making me very depressed
Edit: guys, please don’t hurt yourselves :(( even if everything’s hard, there’s still someone who cares for us.

Welcome to another episode of "RUclips knows what's up with my life"
Welcome to another episode of
"RUclips tries to make me get therapy yet again."
lol, sorry-
What people forget is that life has never been easier. The majority of people nowadays will tell you life is extremely difficult for youth today, but what they forget is that humans have never had more ease. If you compare life today to life a thousand years ago the difference would be colossal. Today we dont have to hunt for food, we dont have to live in caves for shelter, we dont have to suffer from extremes of temperature, were less likely to die from illnesses, we dont have to travel for months in horse and carriage. Life is extremely easy and yet suicides are on the rise. Why? What humans excel at is struggling. We are extraordinary at dealing with pressure and hardship, you only have to take one look at history to know thats true. I say to anyone who is suffering from depression (especially long term depression) and a lack of purpose, the best thing to do is to do more. Get involved in a worthy struggle. Take on more responsibility and shoulder more stress, just make sure that its positive stress and not negative. (To name a few: Regular physical exercise and sports, career and hobby goals, learning new skills, taking care of the home and environment). Workouts are especially important; to endure pain in the gym does great benefits to your body as well as your mind.
“If a man can find meaning in a concentration camp - where he has been imprisoned for no wrongdoing of his own. Where there is no end in sight - then we can find meaning in our daily lives where we think none exists”
Dont let depression kick your ass and dont use depression as an excuse not to live. Get after it

Reasons why you might feel empty
1. You dont know who you are
2. You have no meaningful relationships
3. You havent made peace with your past
4. You dont have any dreams in your life

Ikr we should make one big gc on social media and we can all be friends
@@israkhan1270 I agree with that
It’s just really everything all at once, lack of intimacy, no meaningful relationship, no goal, nothing, just a life where you wake up, you eat, you talk briefly, you do your things and you go back to sleep.
I’ve been on this planet for 48 years now, and you just described 46 of them. There were a couple years in college where I actually felt like I had a couple of meaningful relationships (friends) and goals. But that all ended shortly after college after all your friends went their own ways.
You just described my life and I hate that.
Yep, except I don't sleep very well. Thanks, good to see I am not the only one who feels this way.
I believe in God (Jesus Christ) and I know He has a purpose for me but I don't how I will discover it or if I will live long enough to.
Hello Friend,
Just a reminder :)
Jesus loves you and desires to have a relationship with you. He wants to rid you of the guilt and hurt you experience in life and forgive your sins. Only search your heart and call upon Him and He will be there. You can say this prayer
" Lord, I desire to be led by You. I cannot live my life by my own strength. Have mercy on me, O God, according to your loving kindness: according to the multitude of your tender mercies, blot out my trespasses and wrongs. Cleanse me from my sin O Lord. Help me overcome my sin. Create in me a clean heart and renew a right spirit within me."
After this, please get a Bible and study who God says you are in Christ Jesus.
Thank you for reading and have a blessed day. :)
I am alone all the day....I don't have any friends and goals...I feel empty all the day 😢....still continues

I hope Ur alr
I was always thinking about, that when you're 4-6 years old, you just keep doing school, everyday, studying from morning up to night. And you end school at 16-18 years old. And then you go to university, when you finish it, you're already 21 years old. And then you just keep working until you become already old. And then you're just doing nothing, watching your kids and grandchildren grow up and experience the same thing. That makes me fell empty.
Exactly..
and the worst thing is, you dont know if you'll end up happy in your old days or even alive at that time.
except i dont have grandchildren because well you know.
You dont have to work and have kids, you can just work at a fast food place or a job that has a “decent” income and do whatever you want. You can have your own little comfy home, you can travel, what were the things you wanted to do back then but couldnt? you can try them now. Its not that you have nothing to do, you just need something to love and have a passion to.
I hope you’re doing well !!

I don’t feel as though they dislike me, they just have a closer relationship.

@@Crusaderx-tp7lu the problem is thinking that they are people that are worst off, just make you feel shitier and that you're a horrible person for feeling like shit. And the cycle never ends.
Hugs back to you. Thank you 😊
Hugs to you, I feel empty as well from how I look around and see may friends of mine who have moved forward or had something big change in their lives. While I'm happy for them it reminds me that I'm not where I'd like to be and makes me feel even more empty.
I had a terrible childhood that is slowly creeping up on me at 27. No father(or mentors) so I had to learn what it means to be a man by myself. I had to keep my emotions to myself because when I was younger I learned that nobody gives not 1 shit about my emotions. I felt alone. The older I get I realize my family is selfish and toxic. I’m a decent human being, but what is decent nowadays anyway? I recently got a higher paying job thinking that’ll fix this issue and be the next step in life. It didn’t, it made me realize money won’t fix my “problems”. I need help, but at the same time, I don’t. I’m well aware of what causes my pain, but if I set myself free from this pain, I’ll only cause more pain and maybe hatred.
What makes things interesting is my messed up sense of humor, it could be a coping mechanism, but at this point, all I know is it keeps me sane. Im not depressed, I’ve came to terms that this is just a terrible hand I was dealt. Though currently my mental health has me thinking everyone is against me or they’re being fake. Anyway, whoever reads have a great day, may you find understanding and value out of your life.
I hope you're doing better bro

Dont let depression kick your ass and dont use depression as an excuse not to live. Get after it
Over the past 3 years, I’ve struggled with the loss of identity - end of a LTR, career shift due to the pandemic, return to a belief system, end of a business operation, and relocation to an old town.
It’s bewildering and confusing most days. Though I’ve been studying, working in unrelated roles and reconnecting with old friends and former colleagues.
Family doesn’t understand the journey I’m on or ‘why it’s taking so long’. Depression hits most days, confusion, anxiety, stress and fear continue to override routines and become overwhelming.

My brother, I invite you with the message of the prophets... the message of Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad, may God be pleased with them all... to believe that in God alone He has no partner... in exchange for a paradise as wide as the heavens and the earth, in addition to tranquility and peace of mind that you have never tasted in your life. Your whole life will change, as working with a full heart is completely different from an empty heart that needs to be charged every minute, ie digital intoxicants....>
Reading comments is like others saying my mind.
*so true, I was thinking the same going through the comments*
sometime it does but not every person can reach your mind..they pretend they know you but it not..
I’m not sure what i feel. Or if I even feel anything, but I constantly feel like I want to go home, even when I’m at home. Idk why or where home is for me.
... me too.. i just.. i just wanna die and be stuck in a Dark void with nothingness and shear cold temperature where im sleeping forever and can still have thoughts... im i just
Same it like somtime u forget that u existed cause u can't feel anything
I completely understand
Same!
... why do we have to feel like that.
idk why i feel like this feeling whenever i’m in a public place or surrounded by people who are so genuinely happy and having the best time of their lives, you just get sad bc of the feeling you might never feel that happiness you’ve always wanted, and you just end up feeling happy for them but also wanting a bit of genuine happiness for yourself too :(
ur pfp tho
Banana Molk ikr
Happiness is temporary. Sadness is temporary.
Ratu Ain hope you’re feeling ok? Love from Irish in Vietnam 🇻🇳 🇮🇪♥️
I wish I had someone to talk to....to connect with and be vulnerable with....without judgment or throwing things back in your face when they are upset.
Hey, just checking in even though it's been more than a year. How are you doing these days?
Why on the internet people think similar to me but in real life everyone is different then me
Ikr
mmmmm aku pom tok tahu lahh..
I don't know wyh 💔
Ikr
probably because they also pretend being fine or strong like us to not being judged or feeling insecure by the other but on the internet , you don't need to pretend like you pretend in real life and probably most of the people don't know you to judge , so.. they think that internet can be a safer place to express themselves than in real life
I just don’t have a goal in life. Don’t know what I want to become
same :( but don't worry, we'll figure out♡
Same
I hate it when my parents force me to make a quick decision and I also feel bad when I have no idea at all
My family pressures me
And my physical appearance is not good
Litterally don't have a single person in my life that I feel emotionally knew me. I dont think I've ever even had a person in my life i felt comfortable opening up to.
You can talk to your friends or online friends through message
same
Same here
@@chibi_okami I don't have friends. And I'm not allowed to talk to online people either...
Same, and i dont know if it makes me seem fake because i dont mean to. It’s just i dont know who i am to begin with in order to let others to get to know me.
I am from Vietnam, I like studying English. I so suprised because I can understand this video which is so meaningful
I swear,you guys are so good at timing.Like seriously.
Hope all is well!
fr tho
Right? Creepy.
𝒀𝒆𝒂𝒉 𝒎𝒆 𝒕𝒐𝒐
That was the most perfect timing possible.
Hi
Same :/
Me too
Same but if u want to talk u can trust me :,)
Relatable
Honestly I feel you. To be honest I kind of gave up on finding someone who will be there for me
Mom: ItS BeCAusE Of ThAt cOMputER
Email I swear I was just about to start sobbing and then I saw this and started laughing instead.
PEIORDT
Also Mom: Don't even get me started about that phone!!
TRUE
#relatable!
just paused the video at 1:02, you don't know who you are.
and thoughts suddenly came to my mind.
i'm good at playing guitar, i'm good at singing, i'm good at mobile games, i'm good at making friends, i know for a fact that i'm smart, i'm good at dancing, i'm good at playing basketball, and these are just things that i can remember that i'm good at and there is still a lot more i can do. But who am i really? what am i really good at? i just dont know, knowing how to do everything just makes me think that i'm not sure who i am.. now im gonna continue the video.
Its like I wanted to be alone but never wanted to be lonely
I feel like a maze I made for myself but
I just cant express it
Same :(
Your words are the same as my thoughts
i hope you're doing okay. this resonates a lot with how my life has been in the past.
maybe if you made the maze yourself, you have the map of the way out somewhere within you too..
take care
Psst…guess what…how do you think God feels? Oh wait, WE KNOW, because we are HIM.
You just put into words what I feel, perfectly. Hope you doing well now
“it’s normal to feel this way from time to time”
*me constantly obsessing over what my life is worth every second of the day*
if you need help go talk to your friends, family and people you trust, life can be great and will get even better after the pandemic ends so do not waste it and life have a lot of good experiences and memories that are gonna make you think it was all worth it, a lot of people who tried to end their lives remember that they changed their mind and are happy to be alive, if necessary search for help in the internet and if you can afford it call a therapist "ending your life is a permanent solution to a temporary problem" also do not be shy to call for help.
Bob Pinters i have heard it all lol still doesn’t change the way i am and how i feel. i’ve seen multiple therapists/psychologists throughout the years, it gets exhausting after a while 🤷🏽♀️
@@desmondforever08 continue being strong, do not give up, always give yourself another chance and some more years
Yeah...cant relate more..
it's literally been like this for 2 years
I feel like everyone do feel empty at some point in their lives. Me however, I've been feeling empty for so many years now
Have you found a companion or a friend who understands you?
DocZero felt this 😔
Same dude
Fucking same here
Since I'm 12
Every single one of these fits and yet no matter how hard I try I still feel empty, like I cease to exist.
