You need to stop, be still, and wait on the Lord.
Get back to basics. Pick up your Bible and just start reading. Paul told us we should pray without ceasing. Turn your crys into prayer. God knows your heart and can comfort your soul. You just have to get back to letting him.

Interesting to me how many people just don't listen. You said "Christians Help" correct? So if you don't follow Jesus, you are not Christ like, and she not talking to you. (OK sorry had to get that out.) Really God is listening, and you answered you own question in the second part. You have been away, or drifted off, or what we call back-slid. It's very common. But just like any other sin, now you must repent (turn completely 180 degrees away from) and go back to your first love (Jesus). Find the home church God has called you to. Pray, read your Bible and get back to the one who created you and you know in your heart of hearts that really loves you. Don't listen to ignorant people, or the enemy lying to you to hurt you, just do what you know is right, get out of the rut/slump and draw nearer to God, and you know things will brighten up the closer you are to the light! God bless you!

It sounds like you are possibly depressed,or it could just be you are having a hard time in your walk with God.
Remember to keep your focus on Jesus.I usually find that listening to certain hymns and praise & worship songs really helps me out.Another book I like to read if I'm feeling down is the book of Psalms.
"And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."-Jesus,Matthew 28:20
"...God has said, "Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you."
-Hebrews 13:5
"If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast."-Psalm 139:9-10

You feel lonely and lost because you miss Jesus. He did not leave you, Honey, He is with you right now. All you need to do is prayer and talk to Him. Get back into fellowship with other believers, but especially with Jesus. He will dry your tears.

You know in your heart that you need God, that is why you directed your Q to Christians.
Seek out a bible believing church. Pray that God will speak directly into your heart during the pastor's message.
May i also reccomment Joyce Meyer(www.joycemeyer.org), her television and online ministries are wonderful, and allow you to grow in the Word of God anywhere. Remember to, that being around believers is truly uplifting! If you email me your name, i will pray for you.
DO NOT listen to these people, called "miserable comforters". They are directed by Satan to encourage you to believe that there is no God, or Jesus. History proves the existence of Jesus the man. We know that. And the bible says theat even demons believe in God, and they tremble. Don't listen to these people, it allows Satan to perch upon your shoulder and whisper in your ear. Your heart knows the problem, and God led you here. Ask your questions, and be wise when you discern the true answer.
Also know one thing: No matter how far away from Jesus you feel, he tells us that you are only one step away from his arms!

It maybe that you have not been spending time with the Lord, like you need to. You know, Jesus does not move away from us, He is always near, but there are times when we wander away from Him.
I suggest that you begin reading God's Word regularly, and spend time in prayer, in order to cultivate that relationship with Him.

Perhaps you have had things happening in your life that have asked you to question things and have not found the answers. You could always talk to a minister about problems or questions you have and even in Prayer by yourself. I hope you find your way back soon in a way that will help you, keep trying.

Whoever said there's "no Jesus there to intercept the sound waves" is WRONG!!!!!!!! Jesus listens to your prayers, but you must have faith in him!

The Bible says that " you have lost your first love ". God really wants to Love you in the only HE can but He cannot do so if you are pushing HIM out of your life.
He wants you to abide in HIM and HE will abide in you.
I will pray for you and hope that God will intervene in your life and that you will find in your heart to see what HE has designed for you in your life.

I don't know the details of your life to know why.
But maybe you should go somewhere you feel safe and let yourself cry, you know, have a talk with God, tell Him how you're feeling. It'll feel good.
