Answer 2

The reason that we feel empty is that something is missing from our consciousness. All humans are born with the empty void that originally was filled with TRUTH, or God if you will. When man Broke fellowship with the TRUTH, he created a consciousness that was missing that element. We go through life trying desperately trying to fill that void with food, drugs, money, relationships, sex, and even working all the time. These are called addictions because they do give us some relief by filling the void temporally. Only when we finally come to the end of ourselves do we usually give up and at that point then the TRUTH, can finally take it's designated place in us. When that happens it no longer is a quick fix, but is permanent. You never will fell empty again. I am not talking about religion, that can be an addiction too. I am talking about God though. God is not religion He is TRUTH. If you have any more questions about the process I would be glad to seek God's guidance in explaining it to you.

Answer 3

I have had the same feelings. I used to cut daily, attempted suicide 4 time in 4 years, been on life support twice. Last time died, but doctors brought me back. So, you are not the only one out there and don't listen to the BS that some people answer you question with. I felt void for many years and still do at times. It has taken much therapy. But, I don't give therapy all the credit. What I've found that helps more than anything, is staying busy. Also, try finding a creative outlet. Mine is collecting music. Just try to find one thing you can call your own and go with it. But don't give up. Please!

hi,
well i used to feel the same as u do only a few months ago... what i did was got a part time job, got new friends, took up a new hobby.... maybe u are just lonely just like i was, try to find new friends, new hobbies, a pet or even a boyfriend . take care of this problem soon because if u dont, it might become serious since u will get irritated with small things and nervous.... if u still don`t feel well after having a new hobby then go to a psychologist who will help u understand much better what u are going through...

take care...

Answer 5

It depends greatly on what has happened in this short space of time. If it's death, debt, losing your home, miscarriage, any of those then I would say that has a big impact on how you cope with it..

As for how to fill the void, talking and getting yourself out there is the only way you will do this.. Im here if u want to email me and we can talk some more Iv'e been there myself and am still battling..

Answer 6

Well- if you have been feeling "depressed" for over two weeks, see the Dr on your own. Otherwise just try to find something you like to do- get a pet, read a book, exercise, paint, join a club- anything to fill the void in your life.

Answer 7

First of all, I believe that you are a beautiful and deeply inward person. Wake up, open that door and leave those four walls where they are. You can come back later. You know that, right?
What do you like to do? I love to write until I am too tired to write anymore. I love to read every newspaper, particularly those with "secrets" like the Wall Street Journal, New York Times and all medical and science journals. I love to read just about everything. There is so much shocking yet extremely interesting information to be discovered. I am not playing with you. Yes, I can imagine how you feel. I too have felt that way. There is nothing wrong with a little alone time aka "your personal space." Life is too short to wall yourself up and not do things to make "you" happy. I go to all of the "free concerts and other events" out there. Why? For one thing, my taxes have already paid for them. Should I let them ride on and not enjoy what appears to be free. I think not and that would defeat my efforts. Do you swim, like bicycling, how about just boat rides, with the other person driving? I must admit that sometimes, my friends tell me that they ride the "el train" to the end of the line. I do ride it in this fashion as well. It really is fun and sometimes no one is with me. It's "me time" and I am worth it. Yes, I definitely am. I read everything that the library offers and sometimes, I have them order for "free" reading materials that they don't have but come from other libraries. What a plus for anyone who wants this. The library has CDs, videotapes, large print and braille reading materials. Gosh, they have a massive research department. I will not spend my lovely time on this Earth, being in a void. There are tremendous amounts of people who need a "smile" and even a "kind word." They do need me and they sure need you. You have to give in order to receive from life. This does not necessarily relate to the spending of money. I do all that I can to help others and people return that favor. I know no one who is rich so all is fine. As far as kindness to others goes, I am one of the richest people in the world. You can be too. Remember this, "If God be for us, who can be against us?" - Romans 8:31. If you suffer doubts about your purpose in this life, then read Psalm 35 to (Plead My Cause) - You will be reading for a while but it is so worthwhile. I read this particular psalm on a daily basis. I hope that you know how important you are. God makes no mistakes. Peace and God Bless.

Answer 8

Depression

Answer 9

You are Mssing the Other?

.....seriously....often an inner emptiness is about missing love.....

it can date back to when you were a child.

Possibly having some counselling would help? A counsellor could help you trace this feeling back and healing could begin.

Sometimes it helps to fill the emptiness by helping others - doing some charity work. You can meet some nice people there too.

In the meantime, be kind to yourself and make yourself a delicious meal.....

Answer 10

The longing in your heart is homesickness for God. We were made to be close to our maker. Without him we are all empty and look for something in life to fill that void. I am here to tell you that I used to feel like that all of the time and no amount of drug, alcohol, friends, or even family could change the way I felt until I found God. If you truly want to find happiness let go of the ways of this world and settle down with The lord. God Bless you my friend.

Answer 11

The feeling of emptiness is probably linked to a mild depression. Most people who are single, may feel empty due to others in relationships. The best thing to do is to sit down and make a list of what you are missing in your life, what is bothering you, and how you can fix it. If it helps at all, the feeling of emptiness takes time to heal, so writing about it may make you feel better.
