What do you do when nothing ever seems to go your way?

Question

Is that God's way of saying it's time to end your life?

Keebler: Spare me with your bullshit. God hasn't helped me and neither has anyone else. And please don't say the ridiculously stupid line "God helps those who helps themselves." I've done everything I could in life, but no one (neither man nor God) wishes to help me out.

Answer 1

Sorry I don't think they get it , from one to another.

Answer 2

Buy a shotgun. Hide it away someplace safe. If things ever get too unbearable... you got your out ready and waiting. Knowing that you do in fact control your own destiny, seeing as how you can end your life in a moments notice.. just maybe enough to keep you from actually having to do so.

People are selfish and don't want to have to experience the pain they would feel if you were to commit suicide... they would rather you continue living your life in pain to spare themsleves. Alot of people believe in religion and that... well... we should really be past all that stuff by this stage. And as for seek professional help... well thats fine and all... as long as you got the means to afford it. While there are well meaning people out there, and doctors/theropists who really care... money still generally trumps all that.

Anyway having the shotgun.. the means to accomplish something that would indeed go your way... I mean really if you cant kill yourself with a shotgun aimed point blank at your head... anyway that option will be there for you.

Note however if you are the kind of person who might use that shotgun on another person... then don't buy one. If your that kind of person it should be pretty clear why things never go your way anyway... ie: your most likely rude, self absorbed, always angry prick who people have as little to do with as possible so of course nothing goes your way. You don't have the right to end anothers exsistence... no matter how much they may deserve it... unless it is clearly a case of self defense.

One last point... its impossible that nothing can go your way. Start flipping a coin and calling it... I bet you'll get a fair amount of those calls correctly. If however that proves not the case.. and you can repeat this in front of others... you could probably work it and get alot of money out of it. That would be quite a trick.

Answer 3

No its not God telling you to end your life... its life, and life sucks sometimes. Just like you.. nothing ever goes right for me. If I ever do anything just a little off.. i get caught or it comes back to bite me like 1000X's worse. I just had to adjust myself and my actions for all this (and yet things still seem to go wrong here and there - its unavoidable). If you become very aware and conscious of your decisions and actions and really think out the results you will gain control of our life and things that happen to you.. so you don't feel so overwhelmed and out of control.

Don't make this a religious thing. I do believe in God but do not put much stock in the belief that he controls our lives and tells us what to do. He gave us a brain so we can live our own lives and make our own decisions. You can turn your situation around by long term thinking. No matter what your current issues are, nothing is worth suicide... if you really are in a rut then be proactive... move, get a new job, change what you do every day, anything that will alter your current life in a positive way.

I hope things get better for you.

What's all this advice about seeking solace from a mythical god; what has this figure done for the world lately?
In fact, when you begin feeling this way, you are slipping into depression. Not that unique a situation, and the reasonable way to deal with it is to obtain therapy and supervised meds to dispel this real sense of hopelessness. There will be a social assistance agency in your community to help if going the private route is too expense &/or impossible. Be pragmatic and obtain real world, workable solutions. Good luck.

Answer 5

It sounds like you are suffering from clinical depression. I am and actually attempted suicide. I didn't think about anyone but myself at the time. This is not God's way. Please, if you haven't already, seek professional help. It is the only thing that has worked for me. Please remember that depression is a physical illness due to in balance of neuro transmitters in the brain, etc. Prescriptions can balance them out. It is not a quick cure and I still struggle every week, but it has helped. People don't seem to realize it is a physical ailment and there is nothing that will work. I love God and trust in Him implicitly, but I still became clinically depressed. There is no boohoo about it. Good luck and may God bless you. I'll be praying for you.

Answer 6

Read some of your other posts. Seems to me you seem really overwhelmed and tough on yourself. Would you be as tough on someone else as you are on yourself?

I would encourage you to go see your doctor and get into cognitive therapy; so that you can begin to get some balance into your life. It can really be eye opening and give you some solid strategies on how to get more control over your life and balance between work, study, exercise, eating healthy, permission to just have fun. Sounds to me you may have too high expectations of yourself and may have burned out. But I am no expert. You need to see an expert. Do yourself that favor; because there is good life after all this stress you appear to be under. Note: Alot of time men get stuck in this macho bull___ that keeps them from getting smart educated help on how to get out of this rutt that is making you feel so terrible. Don't buy into that and waste valuable time and a chance to feel better sooner. I think from your posts you are an educated person (likely very smart) hence I do believe the key for you will be to speak to a highly educated person with a phd skilled in working with high achievers. High achievers are their own worst enemy sometimes.

Answer 7

no god does not want people killing themselfs or others. what you need to do is change how you think about things (look at the good not the bad), start helping others instead of going boohoo over yourself for there are people out there with worse problems then you . things can get better but you must have faith in the good things, know that bad things will always happen and see the best in all situations

Answer 8

Boy are you angry. I wonder if you show the same amount of effort in work or family or anything else constructive. You complain that God & nobody has helped you but I think people have tried & you dont know how to accept the help. I mean people trying to answer your question is trying to help but you show the highest levels of disregard. Good luck pal.

Answer 9

No... It's God's way of trying to get your attention. Really, either that or circumstances just don't like you very much.

However, do take into consideration the fact that you may simply be not reading your circumstances very well, and so even when you do your best and try your hardest, things don't go your way.

Just be patient, bear down and ride out the storm. No storm lasts forever, although it seems like it.

Answer 10

It may be time to reexamine your expectations and methods, but ending it? How selfish! I assume you have SOME family and friends...suicide leaves them wondering what they should or could have done to help you, which is nothing, of course. Why would you do that to them?

Go talk to a therapist. Things are never as bad as they seem.

Sincerely,
A BIG Worrier

Answer 11

It seems that you dont want to listen to advice given from people. I was going to tell you roughly the same things and that it will work. If God doesn't speak to you about a way to improve things, then He wont speak to you about ending your life either.
