What do you do when you have nothing to live for anymore?

Question

What do you do when you always try as hard as you can, but you always fail. Do you keep trying anyway or do you give up when you know that your grades wont take you anywhere, your athletic ability wont either, and you have no where else to turn. You think about suicide but you know that you would never go through with it. What do you do when you have no future??

Answer 1

find something, fast

Answer 2

You have a future honey, you just need to focus on what interests you. Do you think all those people making millions had top grades and superior jobs? Nope, they found a niche in life they liked, and sold the idea. Heck, even Bill Gates dropped out of college. You need to realize that nobody is perfect. We all have faults. Not everyone has a brain equivelant to Einstein or the sports talent of Micheal Jordan and Brett Favre. Don't take it personally. My advice to you, would be to stop trying so hard. In doing that, you are setting yourself up for failure. Stop setting unrealistic goals and start off on a lower scale. It doesn't matter what you do, how much money you make, or who you have to please in this world. When it comes down to it, all that matters is the type of person you are. Now you can look at your experiences as failures or you can turn it around and look at them as a learning experience. While you move on to something else. The choice is yours. Just keep in mind, that things could always be worse and you aren't alone in this. Millions of people hit this point in life, but we get through it and so will you. It just takes time. Be patient and stay positive, you'll figure out what God put you here for sooner or later.

Answer 3

Either of the two - find the strength for suicide or find something you really interested in. Then do it for fun, not for achievement. Efforts won't usually take you anywhere, if you only start something for a period of time, fail, give it up then try something else. Efforts won't usually take you anywhere, when you do something you have no interest in doing. Efforts won't usually take you anywhere, when you have programmed yourself to think "I have no future, I always fail".
Reprogram yourself. Though I know what you think right now "Easy to say, hard to do! I can't reprogram myself, when I always fail to do anything I do".
Oh, by the way, asking the question here might not be helpful if you look at the anwswers with the same attitude you do to everything alse. If your finances allow you, I'd suggest you to see a psychologist. Looks like you're having deep depression.

Answer 4

Hey if your thinking of suicide then you might want to try talking to someone anyone who will listen to your problem. If you need a place to start talking about just start anywhere. Everyone has a future. You could try thinking of all the positive things in your life. For instance you are breathing. You are reaching out to find answers. This is a start. Try remembering some of the good things you have done in your life and start with those. Find something that really interests you; music, writing, fixing things, maybe even helping others. But take a good look at yourself and find out what your good at. Don't let anyone tell you that you are a failure. Those who tell you that you will fail, are extremely unhappy with themselves. They did not accomplish what they themselves set out to do. You must first believe in yourself. Good luck

Answer 5

well, are you sure you give your best? because if you always fail, then apparently, youre not trying hard enough. there is no such thing as constant failure. thinking you have no future is just in the mind; remember, what you think is what you are. surely, theres more to life than athletic prowess and academic brilliance. make the most of your resources, and soon youll find out there is always a room at the top. =)

Answer 6

Why not get some professional help??Sometimes it helps just to talk to someone...Just DON"T give up,you will be ok!

Answer 7

You know young peolpe have so much pressure in life,you just cant seem to find yourself but dont give up,your a very special person to alot of people and not all of us find good things about ourselves I was one of them. people would point out my special qualities like me being a very caring and helpful person,I might not be the best in most things but,Ive moved on and have learned hey theres some things I do well so dont be so hard on yourself ok. you never know whats in store for your future.

Answer 8

u r not alone. most people, in a certain part of their life go through what you are going through. its a tough world this life is... but we have to persevere, and when u do and make it, you will gain confidence and be a better person. dont give up when u r down. think instead of lie there in the dark. do soemthing about it. nothing in life is that hopeless. life is full of hope actualy, u just havent seen it yet.

Answer 9

You talk to somebody at your local Mental Health Center and get help. Because what you're going through might be an episode of Clinical Depression and that requires medication to get better! I know I suffer from it myself. Anybody out here wants to talk just IM me!

Answer 10

How old are you. It sounds like u're still in school...don't wry..I kinda think most of us go through the same thing. I did horrible in elementary school and i hated life..but then I moved and changed school and things went really well. Now I have ppl tht I call true friends and I actually believe they'll be my good buddies forever.

Answer 11

You have a future just don;t give up. Living in this world is sometimes unfair and difficult but what you are go through is just normal, just don't lose hope and do pray...don't give up!!!
